Hello Brides!
I just went to my first appointment with my seamstress that the shop that sold me my dress recommends. The seamstress was a wonderful woman. My dress has a very long train in the back, but it's tulle. There is lace edging that I want to show in my bustle. I asked for the English bustle, and let her do her work. As she was doing it, she was pinning up at my waist, and she said she would need 6 points. I was a bit confused since there was fabric everywhere because the ladies at the dress shop showed me what the English bustle would look like, but this has so many more layers.....
My question for you ladies is, 1) Should an English bustle be attach right at my waist? I thought it was lower on my backside. 2) is 6 buttons normal?
I felt like it might have been more of a ballroom bustle. I might be in the early stages of panic. I'm thinking about calling her tomorrow and telling her to not touch any bustle at this point, and wait till next week for the 2nd appointment. Not sure, but wanted to ask the bride tribe!
