Bustle Me!

When I told my brother that my dress needed a bustle, he thought we were talking about this:

Boys! Love them to pieces.

I scheduled my dress fittings as close to the wedding as possible. I like to live dangerously - but really, three weeks seemed like plenty of time.

I asked the seamstress to replicate this bustle. It looks to me like little waves lapping around the hem of her dress.

I think the train on my dress must be a bit longer than hers, because I ended up with more volume. Still pretty, but different. DJ’s mom came with me to the fitting, and she was super-concerned that DJ not see the dress until the big day. So if you would like a sneak peek (and are not DJ), click here.

What sort of bustle are you going for?

we heart your comments!

Love your bustle and dress. It’s gorgeous!

Your dress looks stunning.

Love your dress. I keep going back and forth between a French or an English bustle. Right now I’m leaning towards the English
