Can you alter the hem on a layered chiffon dress?
I want to get a chiffon dress online for a dinner I’m attending but am worried it will be too long, can chiffon be sewed easily or is it impossible?
On a scale of 1-10 from easy to very difficult, hemming multiple layers of chiffon to the same length is about a 9. If there’s a waistline seam, it can be easier to shorten the skirt from the waist, leaving the hemlines intact, just shorter.
Otherwise, you’re talking about handrolling the hems, babyhemming or narrow hemming by sewing machine, or serger rolled hems in most instances. I usually recommend people who don’t sew much take chiffon hems to a pro.
If you can show me the URL for the dress, I can give you some better information.
