melmar02 Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 I've recently lost quite a bit of weight, and I have been buying new clothes for our cruise that is coming up in 19 short days. I ordered a new formal night dress in two sizes because I wasn't sure which would fit, and they arrived today. I tried on the smallest size first (because I like punishment), and as I'm trying to zip up the back, which I can't really reach, I'm thinking "YAY! This is a perfect fit!" My husband is on a business trip, and he won't be back until Thursday. So I ask my kids to zip it up for me. I can gather enough fabric where I can reach to tell it's going to zip, and I'm so excited. BUT... you know when materials change on a dress how it's sometimes hard to zip over the transition? Well my kids both get to that fabric change in the dress and say it won't go any further. I'm dying to get the thing on and see how it really looks because I'm in love with this dress! Would it be weird to go ask a neighbor who's name I don't even know? Not sure I'll make it until Thursday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristine Posted November 10, 2019 Report Share Posted November 10, 2019 I know this is old and no longer requires a response, but in the future, tie a long string or ribbon to the zipper so you can grab it over your shoulder/behind your head and pull it up. Also helps to pull it down yourself as well WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
