Have any of you had any clothes altered to fit your smaller size? I have two dresses in particular from my highest weight that I absolutely love. Actually, part of the reason I started losing weight was because my favorite dress was getting too tight. I figured I'd just lose a few pounds and fit in it again. I didn't initially plan on losing 45+lbs! Needless to say, I'm swimming in both of these dresses, but they're both good quality/expensive/super cute and flattering.
A few of my friends suggested having them altered. I've never had anything altered before, and I don't know the process.
Around what is the price range for having a dress altered to a smaller size? Do they just take my measurements? And is that awkward (lol)? Assuming the person doing it is good at the job, can you tell that it's been altered?
