Bustle Advice
I have a gown that I am trying to bustle. I will try to explain. There is no waist, and it is strapless. with a slight flare. There is lace over the dress which extends about 15 inches past the end of the satin part of the train. Any ideas? I have not watched the DVD yet, but I have never seen any like this.
I found your website and think it's great! I have a question about pickup bustles though.
Please find attached a picture of my dress - can you tell me if a pick up bustle will hold this up? My dressmaker isn't sure about doing bustles but I just want to be able to lift my train up for when I'm dancing. Is it just a case of hook and eye or would I need a ribbon loop as well and if so, does this come from underneath the train?
Sorry for all the questions but I'm desperate!

I’m trying to decide which bustle to get and, by the way, your site is SO helpful so thank you.
I think I need to go with a pick-up bustle b/c it’s not a poufy dress and there are no intricate designs on the back or anything. I’m just trying to decide which one, regular pick-up or French pick-up.
I’ve attached a picture of my dress. Any help you could offer before I go for my alterations would be greatly appreciated. I was thinking the French style pick-up.
Thanks so much,
