Levkoff #966 question

Levkoff #966 question

If your BM's had or will have the Bill Levkoff dress #966, did you bustle the skirt? If so,what did you do with the sash? We need sugestions.

Thanks!

Re: Levkoff #966 question

we are bustling the skirt (1 button bustle) and the sash will be cut to be floor length.

Re: Levkoff #966 question

I wore it as a BM. we bustled the train and did the sash to the floor.

Re: Levkoff #966 question

I definitely recommend bustling the skirt and sash especially if they will have it dragging the floor. I had each of my girls alter their dress at a seperate place since a couple of them were out of town and three of them had the dress and sash cut to just reach the floor (not drag) but the other two had a bit of a drag so they needed to bustle. I wanted to show you a pic, but I only have pics of the back of their dress from the ceremony when it was not bustled.

Re: Levkoff #966 question

I had the skirt and sash cut for all of the girls except my MOH who had everything bustled. Here are two pics-one of the BM and one with my MOH in the background (although she's dancing and the bustle doesn't look the greatest)

Re: Levkoff #966 question

my girls wore the same dress and we had them cut the dress and sash to floor length. it was very pretty and simple.

Re: Levkoff #966 question

Yes, each girl had the shirt bustled with one point. The sash was cut so that it was the lenght of the dress when it was bustled. It worked much better than tying them in a bow.

Re: Levkoff #966 question

We are bustling the skirt and having pins put in the sash so that when they bustle the dress they can pin up the ends too

Re: Levkoff #966 question

we bustled the skirt and cut the sashes to floor length

Re: Levkoff #966 question

I got that dress for my girls and we are cutting the dress to have it one length - I felt that I should be the only one with a bustle that day!!
Plus I thought it would be more of an annoyance to the girls.

I am having the sash cut to floor length so the girls don't trip!!!!

Re: Levkoff #966 question

I love this dress my girls are wearing the chamagne and the taupe. I am confused as to what to do, bustle or no bustle? SHould i have them just cut the bustle off... that did loook very pretty

Re: Levkoff #966 question

Thanks for all the suggestions and the pics too! I know my daughter and her BM's like the look of the train for walking down the aisle, but they will have to make a decision for their comfort after the church.
