Dress with 'pick-ups'

For the girls that have dresses with the pick-up skirts! How will you be or how did you do your bustle? My dress has the pick-up designs on the skirt with a rather long train. I want to get some ideas on how i can get it bustled. Can you guys post some pics of bustles that might work? Here's a pic of the skirt and train of my dress

Sorry, I have no idea, but I wanted to say that I loved your dress! My best friend has a similar style, but without a train.

GORGEOUS!

I don't have any pics, but the gown I tried on had the bustle already, so I got to see it both ways.

It looked awesome bustled. The pick-ups were in line with all the others... I thought the bustling looked a lot better (less noticeable) than on other gowns without pickups... but I can only speak for one dress!

My dress had a French bustle. Unfortunately, my dress was too heavy and the strings broke, so my dress didnt' bustle the entire reception.

That's a lovely dress. My dress has pickups too, not sure what the bustle style is called, but it's a bustle that blends in with the picks up and is hooked underneath...not sure if this is clear, but hope it helps...
The train is sort of going to blend in with the dress

I wore that exact dress!!!!!!

The bustle we picked was a regular bustle...(american?)
The french one my seamstress did looked terrible.

I'm so glad to see someone else wearing the same dress! You looked beautiful~!
Thank you for the bustle idea. I was thinking something like yours. It's so much nicer seeing it on my actual dress not another one that looks similar!

I have pictures in my album from my wedding where you can see the bustle

I have pickups and they are going to bustle my dress underneath the skirt....so we won't see the bustle. The dress will look the same in the back as it is in the front.
