I picked up my dress from my seamstress today after she had steamed it. Although she shouldn't have bothered since I put it on right after i got home

She put in a 5 point underbustle. It looks messed up since i bustled it myself while wearing the dress...no easy feat!

thank you girls!!! i can't believe it's in less than two weeks

MAY24BRIDE, it's called an underbustle (where they tuck it in underneath itself). And there are different ways you can do it...depending on your train and the shape of your dress.

Or you can do an overbustle, where they pick it up and pin it on the outside of the dress....sorry if that doesn't make any sense.

but do a search for bustles on LIW...there's a bustle thread somewhere

I have to be honest, your dress is one of the FEW reasons why i sometimes second guess my dress choice. Its SO elegant.
