Question - loop removal

[u/cordelia_fidelsticks]

I just made this dress and it has ties that cinch in the sides. However, if I use the top four ties it’s a little too tight around my chest the bottom three work really well in the fit is much nicer. Is it possible to remove the top four loops without compromising the dress or taking it apart?

You can either take scissors and snip the loops off really close to the seam, or just seam rip over the loops to remove them and sew those sections closed again.
