I bought my dress in oct/november and have booked my first fitting for 14th jan but I've unintentionally (although not undesirably) been losing weight over the last few months. I was about 9st4 when I first tried my dress on and I'm now 8st7. The dress has already got to be taken in a bit as it was a bit big but was a sample dress. I seem to have very little control over my weight and am worried it's just going to keep falling off me! Can't dresses only be taken in so much? mine has lots of detail but mainly accross the top and down the back. The dress is a size 12 how many sizes can it be taken in by? Probably all thinking why I'm worried about losing weight when most people try hard to do it. once I've lost it i struggle to put it back on, I have quite a high sugar diet and have to avoid alot of high fibre foods too.
I must be crazy giving myself only 6 months!

I think the given is about 2 sizes before you're at risk of losing any detailing if you have any, but a skilled seamstress will know where to take the dress in to minimise this - a size is approximately a stone so unless you're at risk of dropping to 7st4 by the time of your wedding you should be fine :-)

I hope I don't! I look ill when I go below 7st7. Seems an odd thing for me to be worrying about! Considering the amount of sweets and crisps I normally eat anyway.
