Sometimes it's not necessarily your fault. Perhaps, someone inputted your measurements incorrectly, so you ended up with a waistband that's way too big or too small, you got the wrong bra size, the underwear is not what you paid for and so forth.
The question is, what do you do now? You've spent all that time in the line at the mascamp, speaking, yelling, getting frustrated because it now looks as though there is nothing else that can be done. The seamstress is backed up in the work of other things to do, you probably have a social engagement to attend in the next little while which of course means that you cannot stay much longer lamenting over the situation, oh yea, and you also arrived on the Island on Carnival Saturday, and it's torture to try and get anything thing done in regards to this.
Shhhh, don't cry, where there's a will, there's always a way!
Now, it's not an easy thing to take your costume back to the hotel and or home and then redo with all the jewels and what-have you, and worse yet, when you are not prepared for all the reconstruction that's to be made. But, for sure, you have some creative friend who can make a tent out of mango leaves, who knows, and she is able to help you and save your Carnival from sudden disaster.
What can you do to ensure that your costume fits perfectly?
- Make sure to properly measure yourself. If you are unaware of how to do this, go to a lingerie store, (the good ones have associates who will properly measure you and let you know your exact size, bra, bustier etc.)
- If you know you plan to lose weight,
