Are sample size 8-10, like street size clothes 8 to 10? Thanks in advance for the answer!
Hi Mary,
It totally varies with each designer, but I’ve found that in general, wedding dress sizes run a little small. I’m a 0-2 in street clothes but in wedding dress sizes, I’m a 2-4.
i really wonder why… they should make bridal sizes smaller! 
8-10 gowns prolly fit a range of 4-8 street size.
Oh, and a seamstress told me that gowns can be altered two sizes down without changing the look/structure of the dress.
i sooo wish i lived in SF! between haute couture and these sample sales… aughh, i just have to move!
