Maybe I am just slow-but what does hollow to hem mean?

It's a measurement taken on some dresses before they are ordered. If the dress has a lot of detailing on the bottom, then sometimes the designer makes the dress to the correct length for the bride so that the detailing isn't lost during hemming. You have to have y shour wedding shoes (or very similar height heel) during the measurement, so that the dress doesn't end up too short or long if you decide to change your heel height.

thank you-I was wondering why when I went they did not mention that for my dress but there is just a little bit on the train-that makes sense.

No prob. There was one dress that I loved, but I couldn't even try it on because the designer doesn't do hem to hollow, and I'd lose all the detailing since I'm only 5'2'. Luckily they do it for my dress, because the whole bottom is lace.

It is when you are mesaured from your collar bone to your waist and then your waist to the floor. This way the dress is totoally in proportion to your body and they wont have to do a lot of heming when there is work on the bottom of the dress
