How to Bustle Your Wedding Gown
Our bustles use discreet hooks and eyes to lift and secure your train. When bustled, your dress will still graze the floor but will be out of the way to prevent tripping and allow you to move freely.
Your bustle points are marked with small safety pins - be sure to remove them before walking down the aisle. The person assisting you with your bustle should also be the one to remove the pins.
