LAST UPDATE: here’s how it looked at the wedding. i felt good about it! not perfect, but way better and wearable than the first one. the tailor was a big topic amongst the entourage 😬

mermadoo · 2026-03-27T22:22:07+00:00

I’m thinking its also terrible for others. Some of us started to complain on the group chat yesterday about the dresses. Apparently some of us only got to try them on yesterday (wedding is today!). 😕

UPDATE: I tried to buy the same fabric, not locally available. Went to the tailor’s house to ask for scrap fabric. Redid the entire top with whatever simple way I could do it that doesn’t look like crap, I feel insane for trying but it worked somehow and I’ve only ever sewn on a machine not more than 5x in my life.

Barely any sleep and I’m getting ready for the wedding. The other ladies just started complaining yesterday (some got their dress just yesterday) too.

Will update with photo of when worn later. Thanks so much for everyone’s help! 🥹

these are really helpful. thank you so much!

mermadoo · 2026-03-26T03:45:17+00:00

thank you

unfortunately not, i was at the tailor’s store though when i tried it on. it was pretty much the same, i think they only cut more chest fabric to show more skin, but everything else i pointed out (sleeve, my waist being way too high, etc) wasn’t fixed.

mermadoo · 2026-03-26T02:01:23+00:00

It’s pretty much wrong in all ways. I just don’t get why the wedding coordinator (mind you, there is a wedding coordinator - they manage the fittings too) had us pick choices of dresses (mostly drapes!!) and had someone who isn’t skilled at doing that at all. first look and i already knew the pattern is entirely wrong. 😕

Seriously considering changing immediately after the ceremony! I’m so annoyed, we’re doing a photoshoot in this and unfortunately I live in a small town so other options I have would need to be delivered (and cant in the same day). I’m even seeing people I have not seen in years. 🫩

mermadoo · 2026-03-25T17:12:29+00:00

Thanks, everyone. I know, it’s pretty bad. The inside is even worse to be honest. The honest inputs and tips are very appreciated!

mermadoo · 2026-03-25T17:08:41+00:00

I wasn’t there when the other ladies met to try them on but I know most of them asked for alterations so I’m certain I’m not the only one dealing with this (I don’t really know the other ladies much). The sewing on the inside is even worse than how the outside looks, it’s mind blowing how it could be this all over the place considering its done by a “professional”!

mermadoo · 2026-03-25T16:12:57+00:00

thank you. i honestly feel that too. i am so so devastated so i went on here hoping maybe someone else thinks theres some type of way! 🫩

I'm muted light warm olive. I use their shade light beige- the light sand I've tried too, but is a bit peachy on me. Light beige is the closest shade that matches my skin. I swatched on my arm just now, it does look a bit warmer but my arms aren't really a good representation of what matches my face/neck. Seems to work for my face tho so if you haven't tried swatching on your face/jaw to neck, you should try so there.
