After giving the staff my measurements, my bridesmaid dress came back about 4 sizes too big. It took three fittings (the last one only two days before the wedding) before it was finally right, and even then, the dress was so big to start with the chest area never fit right.
They claimed to have altered stuff already when I knew they hadn't cause they hadn't pinned it on me...and when it was all said and done at the last minute, I had to pay even more money to have it ironed.
