Thanks for your help and comments. Just took in my suit, they had me try it on and fitted perfectly to me, even taking it in a little. It will be ready on Monday in time to leave for vacation.

I ordered this suit from Lands End and love it except the top is way to long.

You can even see the ties on the sides when I put it on. Now we are leaving for vacation on Tuesday and I wanted to take this suit. Do you think if I took it some where they could take 3 to 4 inches off the bottom? Or will it not work with that fabric?

I think it can be done. I don't see why not if you can get bras alters you should be able to get swimsuits altered. I wouldn't wait too long to take it somewhere though.

If it's just too long, I don't see why not. Just hemming is not a big thing!!
