Communion Dresses for Plus Size Girls
January 21st, 2010 by Pegeen.com | No Comments | Filed in Communion DressesAlthough we do many dress styles for all shapes, I am frequently asked about flower girl dresses for Plus Size Children, and especially Plus Size First Communion Dresses.
Each dress we make for a plus size child is individually hand cut according to their specific measurements so any style will look good on the child because it is made for them. I frequently get a call from a parent who said they tried on (for example) a size 18 1/2. What is a half – a half child? At Pegeen.com we like to treat our plus size girls with respect.
For PLUS SIZES we will send a Bodice in the mail which is made out of a muslin material. You will try on this pattern/muslin and get back to us with any further fit issues. Be sure to have a digital camera ready when it arrives. After the fit is finalized, we use our copy of the same muslin here and proceed to make your dress. “My staff and I are really good at spotting the problems. Once the digital pictures are sent back to us experience and a little programming magic, produces the changes that need to be made to the pattern. I really scare my kids sometimes when talking on the phone to customers. After they give me the measurements and height, I usually guess their weight within a pound or two. It amazes my kids but reassures the customer that we know what we are doing! I was especially happy when a recent customer said to me ‘ITS LIKE MAGIC IN A BOX’ and that pretty much says it right there.”
