Bridesmaid Dress Alterations for Westport CT Bridesmaids

Bridesmaid dresses are usually ordered in standard sizes for a group of people who are anything but standard sizes, which is exactly the problem Ruby's Alterations & Tailoring solves every wedding season. Whether the dresses were bought online, from a bridal shop, or handed down from a previous wedding, each one gets fitted individually so the entire wedding party looks cohesive in photos.

  • Hemming to match everyone's heel height
  • Taking in or letting out side seams
  • Strap and bust adjustments for each bridesmaid
  • Coordinating a matching fit across the whole group
  • Group fitting appointments to save everyone a trip

Because bridesmaids rarely share the same measurements, the biggest challenge is usually getting five or six different bodies into dresses that were ordered in a handful of standard sizes. Side seam adjustments, strap changes, and hemming to a consistent length across the whole group are the most requested changes, along with the occasional bust or waist adjustment. Coordinating everyone's schedule for a single group appointment is often easier than it sounds, and separate appointments work just as well when a group visit isn't possible.
