text: Irene saved my life or at least my participation as a bridesmaid in one of my closest friends weddingnnI had another tailor take my measurements and called them into the company that produced the bridesmaid dresses When they sent me the dress in a size that normally fits me with no trouble NOT TO MENTION they had recommended it based on my measurements I found that I was unable to zip it up all the way Not good not good at allnnBridesmaid dresses are not made with a ton of extra material which is why they often tell you to order a larger size and get the dress taken in rather than risk getting a dress that is too small there is not much fabric available to let out And this dress was silk with a chiffon overlay quite expensive and not exactly basicnnI took the dress to a tailor who said he could not help me As I began to panic he must have seen the desperation on my face and quickly recommended that I take the dress to IrenennI left the dress with Irene and I do not know what kind of miracle she worked but she found just enough fabric in the seams to get the dress to zip all the way She charged cash only which I thought was more than fairnnIve also had her shorten a dress for me and it turned out very well
