How much can a wedding dress be altered?
Most gowns can be altered about two sizes up or down from the original measurements. However, it’s important to consider the structure of the dress. If the bodice or cups don’t fit properly, it may not be the best choice, since the bodice is the foundation of the gown. In cases like that, the cost of alterations could exceed the value of the dress itself.
