It has become popular for other gowns in the bridal party to have trains. These have been mostly small so far but I have noticed a trend for them to be getting more dramatic. I have bustled many Bride's Maid's gowns with the simple pick-up style, but I am now seeing gowns that need more elaborate bustle designing.
This is a Mother of the Bride gown with a substantial train. There is an added problem with the skirt seam design being on the diagonal. I could get the back up with the pick-up style but the sides were still dragging, so I went to a 4 point Ballroom Bustle.
Because this gown is not white or ivory, the covered buttons we usually buy for this purpose would be very noticeable. I used fabric front the hem to make covered buttons that match the gown and are very unnoticeable.
The points were a little tricky to figure out because of the diagonal seam but the bustle looks great.
