| Michele, I was thinking about what would look good with velvet and I think it'd be cute to add a white faux fur trim to the bottom, like on a santa hat. I also would like to add a peter pan collar with the same fur fabric.. What do you think?

| If you're doing a red and green bow with it then it might look cute to add a 2-3" green satin tier, straight not ruffled, and a matching little peter pan collar. Then if you get really ambitious and there's a way to do it, add some green tulle underneath the red tulle on the bow on the back of the dress. |

| I think the white fur would look really festive or the idea of adding a ruffle would work equally as well. That is a really pretty dress It is hard to find ready made clothing that fits well, especially in dresses.

| Can we see a picture of the dress laid out flat on a table? How is it fitting her around her neck and front legs? If it is tight around the legs/pits, it may need the neck band extended some. One of the pictures looks like it is fitting a little tight. If it is okay in those two areas, I would just add longer red tulle; or, to match the bow, add green tulle underneath the red skirt.

| Here it is. It fits her great in terms of tightness. It probably looks like it fit weird in the pics because I had tugged it as far down as it could go. She does have a very, very long and slender neck though. My giraffe baby.

| White faux fur is a good idea or a white satin underskirt with white or red sparkle tulle inbetween the two skirts. |

| Honestly, I would send it back and find another dress. You have already spent good money on it and they have obviousley messed up her size. You should not have to put more time and money into it.

| I wanted to...but it had to be in the bag with all tags, never worn. It doesn't look like its been worn, but at this point I just want it fixed and I trust the talented ladies here on YT. I learned my lesson...from now on, everything will be custom made from measurements lol.

| Aww thanks Kathy! I don't have time to sew anymore bc the bike shop is now way too busy, but I miss it so much. I haven't even had time to upgrade my Halloween costume for this year. In fact I don't even know if we're gonna do anything! We're exhausted!
