    shopping for wedding dresses can be amazing or soul crushing - there's no in between. I hope morgan has her attitude thrown in her face when it's time to find her dress!
    so glad you're back and were able to find your dream dress in the end

    Unfortunately in the US, sizes are not standardized for womens clothes, so "sizes" are literally a crap shoot based on brand/cut/style/manufacturer etc, that is why there is some size overlap in plus/regular sizes. If you go to a fabric store and buy a dress pattern, it is actually by body measurement and often women are shocked because thier "right size" is way too small when they make it from a pattern. This is because the clothes patterns ARE standardized and the measurements they still use were from decades ago, when women weren't so fixated on being "skinny". So a size 12 could be a size 14 or 16 (depending on hips/bust) because the fashion industry has been slowly reducing the size numbers over the past 50 or so years. The entire fashion industry is ridiculous in so many ways. There are also plenty of situations where a woman can be a certain "size" but the hips (since you already mentioned them) will not fit in the jeans, because the pant sizes are measured at the waist. So she can actually have a size 12 waist, but because she's got an "Oakland Booty", she needs a larger pants size than her waist indicates. Womens clothing sizing is unnecessarily complicated. Since the hips are the widest part of women, pants sizes should be measured that way, and not at the waist like mens pants. I always get jeans that fit my hips, who cares what the label says since so many are reducing size numbers to make thier brands appeal to women who do care about the number on the label because they can say they wear a smaller size. And shirt sizes can vary too because there is no guarantee that her size 10 bust matches her size 12 hips. There are also women who are short waisted and long waisted. The majority of people are balanced, which means that if you measure someone from the hips to the top of thier head, and then again, from thier hips to thier feet, those measurements will be the same (DaVinicis Vitruvian man). In short waisted people (like me) the length from thier hips to thier feet is longer than the distance from thier hips to the top of thier head. In long waisted people it is the reverse, the distance from thier hips to the top of thier head is longer than from thier hips to thier feet. That is why it is really hard for short waisted women to find high or low-rise jeans. They are made for "Vitruvian"/balanced women, so pants labeled low-rise will still be mid-rise jeans when a woman has a shorter waist. We also have trouble finding high-rise jeans, because they will sit way too high up (like maternity pants) because they are also made for women with balanced waists longer than thiers. With long waisted women it is the reverse, short rise will be very low on the hip (almost indecently) because they are made for women with balanced waists (shorter waists than thiers), and high-rise jeans are actually mid-rise, making high-rise jeans the hardest to find for long-waisted women, because some mid-rise can pass for low-rise jeans. Kind of like a 5 foot 3 woman trying to wear her 5 foot 6 friends long skirt. It won't be at the ankles, the shorter woman will be stepping on the hem because she is shorter. Or if she tries on her taller friends short skirt, it could end up just above her knees instead because her friend is taller. Short waisted and long waisted also applies to men, but since we are talking about wedding dresses, your man can stay out of these examples. I am not a fashion major, but I learned to sew as a kid. I was about 7-8. Is it impossible to alter dresses to make them larger? No. However, there are alot of limits to what can be done, how it will look regarding possible extra seams and how may sizes larger it needs to be. Clothing items usually have a 1/4 to 1/3rd seam allowance when you sew them. To make clothing larger you have to take those seams out and then (if possible) reduce the seam allowance a bit, but you can only go so far before the seams will just tear open because the seams are too close to the end of the cut fabric. And keep in mind that delicate wedding dress type fabrics are more easily destroyed, tears at seams etc more easily than say denim or poly-cotton shirt fabric. Or they have add extra fabric pieces (or entirely replace certain pieces with larger pieces of matching fabric) to shape the dress to fit the bride. And there is a point where so much alteration will be needed that it would actually be easier to make a new dress than to replace that many pieces of the dress. Ursula the sea witch isn't having Cruellas dress altered, they're just making Ursula a new one for her role in the 101 Dogfish movie. Sometimes you will have extra seams (unless you completely replace it with a larger piece of the same shape) and still need extra lace or other trims to match what is already on the dress. And even if say the waist fits, the hips or bust still might need to be altered, regardless of the dress size because humans are not the cookie cutters the fashion industry seems to assume. And if a shop 150 dresses, that can be alot of fabric and other trims stored in the back room or elsewhere. And the more dresses, the more fabric they need in the back, and even more fabric for the most popular dresses, since more of them will need to be altered. So the bigger the shop, the more likely they are to have room for all the fabric to make alterations. For altering dresses to make them larger, they will need to have a professional seamstress to do it all. Making dresses smaller is easier and far less complicated, because they are just removing fabric and reshaping the seams, not trying to add or replace fabric to what has already been cut. It also takes far less expertise and time to make dresses smaller than making dresses larger. Jeans for example, it is easier to reduce the waist size of your jeans than it is to make them larger to fit your hips. I imagine that most shops are similar, they will do the easier option of making dresses smaller, but don't want to keep the materials etc in the shop that would be needed to adjust dresses to be larger. It is really unfair to women whose hips or bust don't suit the entertainment industries and societies unreasonable idea of attractive, but at the end of the day, all we can do is just make sure the next generation doesn't grow up with the same idea that an unhealthy body type is even close to "normal". I am in no way defending that womans behavior, she probably could have explained why they only reduce the size of dresses, and don't make them larger. Don't stress too much about any of it, stress is one of the easiest ways you can sabotage your own event. Unrealistic expectations of perfection are how Bridezillas are born. I am not saying that you are one, your plans have just begun. I am just saying that no one needs to become one over that womans bad attitude. If you need to, just take a step back, take a couple of breaths and tell yourself that nothing is perfect and having a good time with friends and family around is more important on that day than whether or not some "bridal consultant" (or anyone else along the way) was rude to you. I would have walked out on the spot to be honest, and then called the manager to complain and left a negative review (I rarely review anything) on Yelp etc later. Is there an actual degree for a bridal consultant, or do they just hire people who keep up with trends? I am thinking they hired her because she keeps up with trends and can sell over-priced dresses to people who also keep up with trends. "Bridal consultant" sounds like the used car salesman of bridal gowns. I say that because no one knows better than you do what kind of dress you were looking for, and your friends and family will know what suits your style than anyone you have only known ten minutes. She is only there to tell you what dresses they have available, and help you try them on, which is in no way a consultation, it is a sales pitch. A parrot can tell you that you look really good in the shops trendy new Glad Force-Flex trash bag with a paper crown from BurgerKing and actually will be far more sincere because the parrot isn't working on commission. I am glad to hear that you did find a great dress though.

      Yes womens fashion is AWFUL!! Personally im split pretty half and half torso/leg wise. I wouldnt say my legs are shorter or longer im pretty even. But the inconsistency is terrible! But youre right no point in stressing! Honestly I never leave negative review but they were so bad i did leave a negative review on Google and I bet theyll delete it.

      I don't think that the business themselves can delete it, only Google could. And they likely won't unless every other word was a profanity or something.@@purmapup
