A number of alterations can be made: 1) Side seams and Back Seams – The side seams and back seam in the torso can be taken in or let out to make a wedding dress fit a bride. This is true even for gowns ordered to size. Wedding gowns are usually made to allow the side seams to be let out up to 3 inches or 1-2 sizes*. Additionally, the back seam often can be let out slightly to size up further.
