Well, I heard of a woman who bought a dress for a special occasion. The size was supposed to be a medium according to the chart. But when it came, it was so small that she couldn't even get it over her head. It was a total waste of money and she had to scramble to find a new dress at the last minute.
Wrong size is a common problem. You order what you think is your size but it turns out to be either too big or too small. Another is the color difference. It often looks different from what is shown in the picture.
Sure. One horror story is that a girl ordered a beautiful prom dress online. When it arrived, it was the wrong size and the color was completely off. It was supposed to be a light blue but it was a sickly green. And the fabric was so cheap and itchy that she couldn't even wear it for a short time.
One more horror story is about the sizing being all off. You know, like when the store measures wrong or the sizing chart is just not accurate. So the bridesmaids end up with dresses that are either too big and falling off or too small and squeezing them in an unappealing way. It's really a headache for everyone involved, especially when there's no easy fix available and the wedding is just around the corner.
Well, I heard of a situation where a bride's wedding dress caught fire during the photo shoot because it was too close to a candle. Thankfully, she was not seriously hurt but the dress was ruined. Also, there was a case where the wedding dress store went out of business right before the bride could pick up her dress, and she had already paid in full.
At my school, there was a really strange dress code rule. Girls couldn't wear shorts above the knee. Once, it was a really hot day and I unknowingly wore slightly shorter shorts. I was sent to the principal's office and had to call my parents to bring me a longer pair. It was so inconvenient and I felt so singled out.
One prom dress horror story is when a girl ordered a dress online. It looked beautiful in the picture. But when it arrived, it was completely the wrong color, like a bright neon instead of the elegant pastel she wanted.
One horror story is when the bridesmaid dress was ordered in the wrong size for all the bridesmaids. They were too tight and couldn't be altered in time. So the bridesmaids had to wear uncomfortable dresses all day and were self - conscious about how they looked.
One horror story is when the bride - to - be found a perfect dress in a store. But when it arrived for the final fitting, it was the wrong color. The store tried to blame it on the lighting in the showroom, but it was clearly a different shade than what she ordered.
