Weddings - Need suggestions

humm i get those problems too. but blouse not so much... cos i not as blessed as youOriginally posted by elindra:The problem is that my blouses are either too tight in front or it looks like I'm wearing a sack unless I get them altered or unless they are those t-shirt material ones
The problem with pants is that if I can pull it past my butt it is too loose around the waist
I'm starting to think asians have no butt
actually my skinny gal frens also complain about the pants being loose ard teh waist. i think it is just the designer's problem

NO TO LEVIS!!!! i totally dun get levis. wat is the point of making size 28 jeans and make teh bigger gals go for men's cut??? helloww men got no hips so bigger gals will never get a perfect fit in those things.Originally posted by viciouskitty74:I know the feeling.
I cannot buy off the shelf blouses.
L will be way too tight in the chest, where buttons might pop off.
XL will be way to large for the shoulders and it looks saggy or I should be wearing shoulder pads....plus...not many XL size blouses to buy in SG.
Pants...I always buy flat front and with elastic materials. Got one time ride bike....the bikes spilt at the back....so I rode home to change another pair of pants.
The most problem I have with your same situation is with Levis Jeans. Dunno why, they can go past my butt, too loose at waist....Everytime like machiam my whole backside is for show when I sit down.
So I never buy Levis Jeans.
wat is the deal with excluding part of the female population? isn't levis ang moh brand? do they only serve ang moh ladies who r small too? this is discrimination.
NO TO LEVIS!!!
btw, Topshop has nice jeans. I buy my jeans from topshop instead

Breathe ? *sneers*
Here's something I came across a long time ago.
Uncomfortable does not mean miserable: it means accentuated living.
The more uncomfortable you feel, the better you look.
And the better you look, the better you feel.Originally posted by the_don:oh talk abt corset..... i need to show u gals the pic of this gown i like. it is corset with long A line skirt. but i dun know if i can breathe in that thing -

Wow this has to be written by someone who suffers from major self-delusion -
USA has some sort of a sideline of Levis.
its called Levis Signature. And I can fit their teenagers wans. And they are cheap.
But somehow, ever since I worn cheapo jeans from 'Shop In & CK Departmental Stores'.
I dont even borther with Giordano jeans. Its like $10/- a pair of jeans, that has boot leg cutting, low waist & thin stretch-able denim materials that hugs the right places of your hips & legs.
Plus they are so cheap. Worn liao,throw away and get new pairs. And they fit my 31 inch waist and 37 inch butt perfectly. I run no risk of showing cleavage at my butt. -

and butt cleavage.. that is a nice way of putting it. TX usually just shrieks 'mud crab!!!' when he sees one -

Sure or not? $16.99aud? -
the 16.99usd version is the copy la. made of inferior quality.
the original is about 600 or 900 aud. made of satin
absolutely love the corset look. loveee the rich vibrant color. i hope it's not too heavy tho.
i'm thinking of checking it out when i'm in melbourne. but it's way too early to buy the gown tho -

I remembered trying on the gowns here
I was on the verge of breaking down in tears after the 2nd shop
Everything was made for non-humans
STICKS!!!! -
ya i know wat u mean. it is very distressing to visit shop after shop only to be told 'sorry your size dun have'. i oready get that with everyday clothes and dun wan to go thru that for wedding gown. i told the GHA lady that my gown,evening dress, rom dress all must be MTM cos i'm very sure they dun have my size. (of cos she said 'nooooo we goooot your saiizzeeee'. in my mind i imagined her holding a large white sack)Originally posted by elindra:I remembered trying on the gowns here

oh GSS starts tomorrow. gonna buy new bedsheets! whoohoo! -
They DO have our size
But in one style - made of 2 piece seperates - A line skirt, and top that is totally laced up at the back. -
Actually it's not far from the truthOriginally posted by the_don:(of cos she said 'nooooo we goooot your saiizzeeee'. in my mind i imagined her holding a large white sack)
I tried a few dresses which were my size but they all make me look shapeless like I'm some whale

how did u gals get your gown? (elindra bought hers 15mins before right? lucky gal..can find size ) It was more like an evening dress then gown
But we had no time to have one made so it has to be off the rack
We actually got married earlier then planned coz of our flat >< -
*wince* that is wat i want to avoidOriginally posted by elindra:Actually it's not far from the truth
I tried a few dresses which were my size but they all make me look shapeless like I'm some whale i had to wear a white dress for my sec4 graduation.. that was total night mare... *beach whale aground! everyone siam!!* -
some blum dresses r v nice, nicer than a shapelese white cardboard some bridal studios call a gown.Originally posted by elindra:Nay I bought my gown from BLUM believe it or not It was more like an evening dress then gown

i do hope my flat dun come so soon. i really like to have solomization and wedding dinner on same day -
LOL It's not exactly PLAIN , it comes in a myriad of colors (for EG) , with embroidery and applique etc
But I notice that's what the big girls settle for off-the-rack - the standard back lace-up dress. Because lace-up fits all.
Mine was MTM. The ROM one was purchased off the rack.Originally posted by the_don:=.=""
