Bridal belt and bustle help!

Genevieve, on June 13, 2019 at 11:26 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 1 13
Hello everyone,
So I bought a belt for my bridal gown and because the ribbon color did not match my dress my seamstress suggested sewing it onto the gown. In the front, I love LOVE my dress and belt. However, the belt stops at an awkward spot. Do you guys think it looks stupid or is it just in my head. Also is this bustle set too high? Thank you in advance for all of your help!!!

    I think it's ok stopping there actually. And I don't think the bustle is too high either

    I actually like it stopped there! It looks good. And the bustle looks good too.

    I think you should talk to your seamstress to see if she can make any tweaks to your dress, as it looks like you still have a couple of months. If you’re getting in your head, it might be worth asking your seamstress what she can do so that you know 100% that you love your dress day of. That said, I think it looks great Smiley smile

    I think both look perfect! If you are looking for the bustle to be lower, it would not pick your train up enough to avoid being stepped on.

    You can get a belt that goes all the way around off of amazon for about 20-30$. Idk how much your seamstress would charge extra for changing them out though. If you’re good with the way it looks then try not to think too much about it.

    Hi, for accessories I'm I already have earrings, and a necklace. I'm not sure what else I should get. Maybe a hairpiece?

    Oh a hairpiece could be super pretty! Have you decided what way you will be wearing your hair?

    For my hair I was thinking of getting extensions and going half-cup and half-dozen with loose curls

    Oh, in that case a hairpiece would look amazing!! You should check out Etsy for some different options and styles!
