Prom Dress Alterations: When Length is an Issue

There are several different ways to go about prom dress alterations when length is an issue. Whether your dress is too long or not long enough there are a few options that you have to fix the issue. Some options are obvious, while others may take a bit of thought and ingenuity.

First of all, when you purchase a prom dress, it is very likely that you are going to have to alter the length. Most prom dresses are built to fit girls who are 5’ 9”, giving enough material for those who are shorter to work with when hemming them up. If you’re taller than 5’ 9” then you may have difficulty finding a dress that is full length. Alterations can be done to increase or decrease length as needed.

To keep from having to alter your dress very much, you should make sure that when you shop for your dress that you’re wearing the same type of undergarments, especially bra, as you will at the prom. Wear the same type of shoes, or at least the same height of shoes as you will at the prom. This will help to ensure a better fit.

Once you have purchased your prom dress and you find that you need to make changes, it is best for you to find a competent tailor in your area. There are all sorts of alterations that can be made to your dress, and some of these are more complicated than others. Always remember to take photographs before leaving your dress with your tailor in case something happens to it.
