After 3 trips to Deidres for Alterations the dress was totally and unexcusably ruined. My daughter was in tears and I had to take it to another dress shop One Week before Prom to have the whole dress realtered after Deidres refused to fix it!!! The Bra top had to be adjusted and not to mention that the sides of the dress were completely uneven where the bra top met the skirt, One side had a 1 inch gap and the other side met the skirt in a v shape! I had to have the hem completely done over and the bustle redone. She returned the dress to me with runs in the fabric!!! where she had attached ties for the bustle and the Loops that were added for the bustle sewn through to the front of the face fabric!!! Horrible, how can this woman say she can do alterations? She butchered this beautiful dress and charged me not once, but twice!!!!! for additional alterations!!!! I am appauled, when I requested that the dress be fixed she told me she had no appointments available for the week before prom !!! Basicly my daughter would have to wear the dress with her bra hanging out and the hem dragging on the floor! I have pictures and will go to the attorney general for a full refund. My daughter is crushed and I am out $500.00!!!! She has to wear this dress to her prom and I am so upset for her, she is beautiful and will shine through this unfortunate experience, but if anyone is thinking of sending their child to Deidre's Please!!! Don't!! This is a right of passage for a teen girl, It is one of the only times in their lives that they will wear a gown and you want them to feel like a princess and have a positive experience this was a total nightmare!! If I could give a negative 10 stars that would be my rating!!!! Stay away for this shop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
