Bustles
Most Wedding Dresses don't come with a built in bustle.
Why not?
Because the bustle is customizable to taste.
WHAT IS A BUSTLE?!
We get that question more often than not!
A bustle is a way of fastening up the train when you want it up and out of your way, or letting it down when you want the full splendor of the dress.
AND, nobody can tell it's there during the ceremony!
Bustles come in a variety of styles and combinations... depending on each gown and the bride's personal taste.
Designing the Bustle is my favorite part of the fitting process because it lets the bride and I work as a team to design a whole new look.... or even make the train completely disappear!
Don't forget this IMPORTANT fact: adding a bustle to a wedding dress does not in any way remove, shorten or alter the train. In fact, until you're ready, nobody can even tell the bustle points are there!
