A vintage wedding dress holds sentimental value and timeless beauty, but it may require alterations to fit a modern bride’s style and shape. This guide explores how to update a vintage gown while preserving its original charm. From resizing the bodice to adjusting necklines and sleeves, every alteration must respect the delicate fabrics like lace, satin, silk, and tulle. Finding an experienced tailor is crucial, as vintage materials require special care.

Is that a photo of a side zipper? Nothing special, right?
Heh- the entry into the dress remains in the centre back to allow for hair and makeup to be done before she gets into it.
There are two of these side zippers installed during the alteration to allow for… drum roll, please… breast feeding.
Yep. I rock. No question… 😉

Going to break out the old rusty bridal skills for this project! 👰 This client needs her gown taken in on the sides and the center front. I am anticipating a lot of movie time while meticulously beading the pattern back after the alterations. 🤍⁠
