Found this is be an interesting sidebar to the whole GLP-1 story.

When Nicole Hamilton found the A-line gown she plans to wear to her wedding reception, she requested a waist roughly 3 inches smaller than her frame.

Hamilton, a product designer in New York, has lost roughly 50 pounds on weight-loss medications in the past few years—including 15 pounds since her fiancé popped the question last May. And she plans to lose more.

But when she went to buy her dress, she ran into a less-than-thrilling hurdle: She had to sign a legal waiver, acknowledging in writing that the gown didn’t yet fit.

Selling wedding gowns has always been a high-stakes business. But these days, outfitting brides for their big day is more fraught than ever because of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs.

With the rise of weight-loss medications delivering dramatic results, future brides can’t say yes to the dress until much closer to their big day.

That is forcing bridal stores to stock more dresses to accommodate last-minute weight fluctuations, leaving dressmakers on the hook for an increasing number of rush orders and hurried adjustments.
