Dirndl Alterations
A dirndl should neither be too loose nor too tight but should fit well without creating folds in the bodice. This ensures it flatters the body silhouette and enhances feminine proportions. However, every woman has unique measurements, which means the dirndl may not fit perfectly right away. Dirndl designers take this into account: most of our dirndls have a seam allowance of up to approximately 3 cm. This allows your new dirndl to be easily adjusted to your figure.
