Bustle

How popular is the bustle? I am thinking of doing it for my reception as my fiance and I have been practicing a dance and I want to be able to move freely. Are there any other alternatives to the bustle?

Re: Bustle

I am not sure if there are any alternatives, but I do know that having your dress bustled for the reception is still pretty popular. I have to have mine bustled because we are dancing as well and I have a semi-catherdral length train. Let me know if you do find any alternatives, I will check as well.

Were getting married.........again!

Re: Bustle

The only other option would be that loop under the train, who wants to cart that around all night? Here one of my favorite bustles; The Ballroom Bustle

Re: Bustle

Thanks girls. The lady who sourced my dress for me is thinking of getting me a bustle brooch...have no idea what it looks like...it sounds pretty though. My dress also has the loop under the petticoat but that can really be a bother to carry around all night...

Charley,I thought that some dresses came like that.But,I also remember Islandbride saying that she had to get her dress bustled. Maybe she went to a seamstress?

Re: Bustle

Mine will also be bustled. Couldn't get the Ballroom Bustle because it would have taken away from the designs on the dress. That's a sweet looking dress.

Re: Bustle

Some gowns come with ties for bustling, most don't. A bustle brooch is just a brooch used to accent a bustle point.

Re: Bustle

Let me see if I get this right....when one speaks of bustling a dress it is the process by which you pull up the train and pin it up in the back correct?

Re: Bustle

Depending on the style and where you purchase the dress,you may be able to request them to make the train detachable.

Re: Bustle

I love the idea of a bustle brooch. Any extra bling is fine with me. Can you oimagine the light hitting it and your tiara... lovely.

Re: Bustle

Ya know what I like...I saw this on a wedding somewhere....there is a string like thing that goes around your wrist that holds the train....I would rather that....I just like that effect I guess.
