So my dress has 6 layers, all different types of laces & tulle. It's a David Tuterra dress and it's absolutely gorgeous.

So my dress has 6 layers, all different types of laces & tulle. It's a David Tuterra dress and it's absolutely gorgeous. There are lace details along the bottom of the dress so my seamstress and I thought it would be best to do an American bustle so those details aren't hidden. In order to do this, she sewed 16 buttons along the back of the dress!! 16!!! It looks awful. It's a huge arch of buttons super close together and to me it's a major eyesore. The seamstress said this is the only way to do it bc there are so many layers that need to be brought up. Am I being too picky or should I take my dress to another seamstress?

    I would just get it back now and take it elsewhere before she sews any more holes in it. She clearly doesn't know what she's doing. You don't need 16 buttons and she should have used ones that were harder to see and put them where they were not going to stick out as much. Is everything else done besides the bustle?

    I would take it somewhere else or have her fix it.
