Altering a Victorian Maiden JSK

Aug 24, 2012 10:58



I have victorian maiden's petal frill dress in pink chiffon. It does fit but the straps are too short on my torso so it just sits a little uncomfortably on top. To add length here I'd want to add at least 8 inches here so it would be quite noticeable. My question is firstly would you recommend me altering it? And secondly, should I try to match the pink cotton strap with chiffon frills and trimming or will a length of pink ribbon look okay?





Thanks for your help!

As you can see, it fits me but the silhouette is all wrong when the straps are up. Perhaps I was over estimating the 8 inches- probably more like 4.










This is the ribbon I bought to perhaps add to the back(?) colour maybe too peach, perhaps a brown ribbon would be better.
