Hmmm good question...I guess we'll figure it out when the dresses come in and see how my MOHs feel!

I'm either getting this or another Levkoff that's almost identical. I'm pretty sure we're going to cut it floor length, though I've considered leaving the MOH's gown with the small train and bustling it... but I think it'd just be nicer / easier to cut it to floor length. BEAUTIFUL gown, btw!!!

I told my girls to do whatever they wanted. Most cut the sash to floor length. My MOH left the dress and sash long and then bustled them both. I don't think the sash bustles too well, though. Here is a pic I have of everyone...before bustling.

Re: Bill Levkoff #966

Im leaving it and having them bustle it later. I think the dress kind of loses something without it

How do you make this detachable? I don't think it is possible with this dress.

This is the dress we ordered for my sister's wedding. Ours is black with a pale pink sash. It is so pretty. Never thought about the train though, will have to ask my sister what we should do.

Only my MOH is wearing this dress...she is cutting the sash to floor length, and bustling the train.

I'm doing the same dress but in taffeta (style 557). I had a friend who went to a wedding where the BM's wore the dress and said the bustle didn't hold all that well and for the sash if they didn't trim it, it was easier just to tuck it in the back (where it feeds through).

Re: Bill Levkoff #966

all the BM (except the MOH) cut them to floor length and I had the MOH bustle hers. The pics aren't great put I'll post some. In the second pic, you can see the MOH on the right with her dress bustled.
