Good evening all!
I have been wedding dress shopping here and there and have like dresses of various styles, but today, I put one on that I really really liked. It's a strapless, A-line, sweetheart neckline, plain white gown. Now it's discontinued so I save money, but it's also 2 sizes too big. Since it's so plain, alterations shouldn't be too difficult. But I've always wanted sparkle on my dress. I like the look and shape and feel of this dress but just need sparkle! I was quoted for this particular dress (sample: 2 sizes too big, needs to be shortened, and needs to be cleaned) for under $100. I would like to also have a seamstress add sparkle to this dress like along the neckline and scattered throughout or just a heavily sparkled neckline. Does anybody have any idea of how much this would cost (an approximation) with alterations and cleaning???? Any help would be great!
TIA

In the end my finished dress was still more than 50% off the rack price!
