Maggie Sottero Sizing chart


Please be aware that in the process if manufacturing a READY MADE wedding gown there will be always be some minor irregularities in the hemlines.
This is due to the nature of the fabrics, style of gown and handwork involved. We suggest where possible that our "Standard" length is ordered so that there is more room for accurate leveling on the individual bride, which takes into account her personal figure type, her choice of petticoat and her preferredshoe height.
When ordering the "Petite" Length the bride needs to be informed of the possible need of wearing a certain shoe height wearing a smaller or fuller petticoat, and any natural hem irregularities. In certain cases where the style has a hem feature such as a border lace, embroidery or embellishments, the "Petite" length would be ideal to order because the full designs will be maintained.

Prom Season!


 Prom Beauty 101

There are some simple rules that you will need to follow in order to see your prom night fly by without a hitch. Simply speaking, by learning from other girl’s mistakes, you can make an incredible impression, along with some wonderful memories, on prom night. No bad hair day, no make-up mess-up’s, and certainly no wardrobe malfunctions. Not tonight. Not prom night.
When it comes to trying new things there is an underlying rule for charting new territory in a fashion sense. You can get a ‘cutesy’, gentle make-over, or try a new eau de toilette, and be within the reasonable limit of change. But going too far past this you are risking the element of terror and surprise involved with sudden changes. Never try anything that is too outlandish within one week of your prom. This is to help save-face and keep you from avoiding the prom because of an unexpected screw-up. To be safe you should avoid new colors of hair-dye, new hair removal lotions or facial waxing, no dramatic haircuts, no untested dental whitening systems, no excessive or unprofessional eyebrow plucking or waxing, and you should also avoid all experimental foods, and gas station sushi, the night before your prom (stomach issues can also ruin your prom).
You should also keep in mind the amount of time in-between purchasing your dress and the night it is to be worn. Our weight can fluctuate, from day to day, hour to hour depending on what you’ve eaten or had to drink in the previous hours. But imagine what can happen in a few weeks or months. We can not predict our weight, unless we are monitoring it with diet and exercise, so if you have no plan in place then it would be best to wait for the purchase of your dress until a month or so before the actual event. If you actually purchase your dress six months before the prom, your eager attitude may stick you in a dress two sizes too big, or even five sizes too small. If you make this mistake, and are running out of time, then you need to contact an emergency seamstress who can alter your dress on a whim; otherwise you may have wasted your money. Dress-shopping for prom may seem a bit redundant after the second purchase. So use caution when dealing with anything associated with weight.
