Dress Bustle

tanneg2010

So needless to say I am not happy with the way my dress bustle has turned out.  I am wearing a dress that has a very long train.  The back of my dress is asymetrical and the seamstress tells me that if she puts the bustle in the middle of my dress it will look akward.  Well I think it looks akward over to the side as well.  Does anyone have any pictures of their dress bustles that I can look at or suggestions?

There are some pictures in my siggy on the links.

I had a double french bustle.

Google images of bustles, they'll have a trillion pictures you can look at

I'll take a pic of mine tomorrow and post it. My dress is also asymmetrical. The seamstress is putting it to the side. I thought it looked better on the side.

Okay here are the pictures. Whoever ties up my bustle has to tie 4 ribbons up. It doesn't even look like I have a bustle. Do you like this?






The dress has  a chapel length train and it almost looks like it doesn't have a train at all.

[QUOTE]Expat I love the way you had your hair styled for your ceremony! I might just have to use it for inspiration if you don't mind :).
