    Yeah I think its fairly simple, I almost bought a sample and that was they suggest could be done if I couldn't slim down to fit into it
    Have you asked if they can make it like that? Mine I could get as either

    I have had one of my bm's dresses changed from zip to lace back due to weight gain, the dressmaker explained it to us and its quite straightforward for them to do so you should'nt have a problem getting yours changed.

    Yes it can be dont that way around, its not usually possible the other way around......from lace up to zip.
    a lot of people have this done, and its especially good for if you have put on weight because it gives you a little bit extra room.....but you may have to buy some matching fabric to use as a modesty panel as there wont be enough in the fabric you remove to make the corset back.

    hehe thanks, I'm unsure on the buttoning, but do you think it would work on that dress? I actually cried when i saw it....but because of my shape i want something that will fit that bit better
