Extremely petite and not sure if trying on dresses will be worth it?

I am super short and very slender so I know I will disappear under a dress. Is it worth booking an appointment, as trying on dresses may be disheartening and difficult for my family to watch. Should i just have my dress custom made?

How do I repair a scorched veil?

My MIL still has her 40+ yr old veil. I would love to wear it for my wedding in October but it was in a house fire about 10 years ago & it's turned yellow in parts. I took it to a bridal restoration shop & they said they can try to restore it but if it's scorched it will stay yellow. It's tulle, it's a perfect length, it goes perfect with my dress & it's something old as well as something borrowed! Please help?! Can tulle be repaired from scorching?

Can I get a dress designer to re-create a gown for me that I love but is unavailable?

I really love this gown, but I can only get it in europe, and I would prefer to try it on and have some input, will an aussie dress designer be offended by having to essentially mimic someone else's design?
