Help! Calling Cea!

Wonder no more why the Lounge Lizard type leaned so lovingly over the partner with the low backed bias cut evening gown in purest ivory Duchess satin...

If you made one out of this stuff, it would slide off the bed!

Ooh, la, la!!!

Healthy imagination, I'm afraid. Never went out without my drawers on in my life! However, I DO have a grown daughter (now safely married and a mother herself, thank goodness). You KNOW how the imagination sets in once a daughter reaches the age of puberty.

Yeah, but wouldn't it be pretty in crazy quilts? I think I', going to start sending away for samples so I can make a crazy quilt bag.

Here in the States there's a line of microfiber undies called LovePats. Size ranges are something like 4-7, 7-10, 9-14. Very stretchy and clingy. Might to the trick. Can you shorten all the dresses to whatever the 3" short one would be? I'm guessing that Bridezilla envisioned floor-length drapey wonders (and she's probably demanding matching shoes although they, unlike the underwear, won't show). Tea length? Mid calf? Add a flounce to all the hems? IIWY I would document **everything**, and send it to ettiquettehell.com too. If you feel like it, photoshop the fabric to change the color. Forget about "the poor woman who did them originally" as she needs to learn to sew. IMHO. HTH. HAND!

Most of the side seam zippers in the bridal shops at the moment are invisible zippers. If you said what kind they are then I missed it. You would have better luck getting it smooth with an invisible one I think. .

These dresses have the most visible 'invisible' dresses I have ever seen! Not only have they been put in to they wiggle in and out when you put the garment on, bit the stitching is so far apart that a nice line

I have bought replacement light weight concealed zips, and will take the standard weight ones out. What I need to do is baste the lasses into their dresses and see what length the zip openings need to be when the garment is ON the body: I can then stabilize the zip openings and sew the zips in so they don't show.

The biggest problem with these zips is that the tops have been put in so that the tops are a thick and uncomfortable lump that pokes the wearer in the arm pit!

Pix will be took and put up as an awful warning!

I'm going to stabilize the zips on the inside. They are concealed type zips, meant to look like a bit of seam.
