Re: Who has ball gown style wedding dresses?

I had a ball gown, and yes I had a bustle. It kept falling out, cause nobody could figure it out (even though mom came to final fitting, but forgot how), but I technically had one!!

Re: Who has ball gown style wedding dresses?

I have a ballgown and will do a bustle. I want it to go up. So the back would look like a fan. Or something like that. Not sure what that bustle is called. I don't want to lose all the work on the chapel train if I put it under.
Does that make sense??

Re: Who has ball gown style wedding dresses?

I hae a bballgown but it will have a waist line bustle. Anything else will make it look like a huge lump attached to the back of me.

Re: Who has ball gown style wedding dresses?

Here is my pic from my first fitting. The seamstress decided it would be best to make the bustle go underneath so it lies flat rather than bunching up. I saw it both ways, and liked this way better on me.

Re: Who has ball gown style wedding dresses?

I have a ball gown dress too but a very small train.

Lulu, I like your bustle...you can't even tell its bustled. I think I will try to go with something like that.

Re: Who has ball gown style wedding dresses?

When a friend of mine got married she had a ballgown dress also and she bustled. She had a french bustled and you couldn't even notice it really. I don't think she is even 5ft. and it looked stunning on her.

Re: Who has ball gown style wedding dresses?

I have a ballgown dress and a bustle - it's going to be the one that folds up in the middle (not sure what that is called) but the designer suggested that, so that's what I'm going to have.
