    Why don't you take it to a local seamstress to see if it can me altered, might cost more than the dress though, perhaps it may be cheaper to buy a new dress, 3rd time lucky

    There is no image there to see tho

    Hiya, your picture's not showing for me unfortunately.

    A local seamstress would be able to make alterations to your dress, including possibly putting a zip in, but I'd recommend getting it done nearer to your wedding day in case your weight shifts again :)

    Check out a local seamstress and take it there, they can change the back to a zip for you and anything else that might need doing

    I don't think you would have a problem getting those things done.

    Hi Kerry - I'm afraid I too can't see your photo. Would you not be better to wait until a bit nearer the time before as you may lose even more weight before the wedding, but yes a good seamstress should be able to sort the dress out.
