PSA for girls with BM dresses with gathers on the skirt

So, I was in a wedding a few weeks ago and we wore the Watters and Watters dress seen below (the one with the gathers on the back). Well, about 5 minutes into the reception, someone stepped on the back of my dress and all of the gathers pulled out!!! They are only held up by a small bit of thread, and my dress went from being beautifully gathered in the back to stick staright. And, since the gathers are made up of ectra fabric, when they pulled out I ended up having this huge train in the back that I had to hold up all night long.

So, if you have slected any of these dresses for your BM's, tell them to get the gathers reinforced. Any seamstress can do it. The dresses are beautiful, and i was so sad mine fell out
