Date: 10/2/2008 9:33:20 PM Author: buttercup80 It''s so hard to envision - do you have any pictures with the train removed? I also just wanted to make sure that you keep reworking it until you''re happy; I wasn''t feeling my bustle and it was giving me doubts about my whole dress until my FINAL fit...

Date: 10/2/2008 6:29:34 PM Author: CrownJewel Hi there! I''m a shorty also 5''0''. The cut and style you chose is perfect for body types like ours. I would not be able to guess that you were 4''11'' from the pictures. I think the dress is beautiful. It looks wonderful with the train attached. Howev...

Thanks oobiecoo! That''s pretty!
And I think it''s a nice option that I can show the seamstress that would blend more easily with the dress.

Sabine, Tacori E-ring, Pocahontas,jstarfireb: I originally liked the idea of being able to remove the train easily and not having to pay for the seamstress to make a bustle. But I saw the pictures afterwards and thought that it would be a shame to lose the flowers by taking the train off. Because w...

Date: 10/2/2008 1:28:12 PM Author: marchswallowbird If you do a bustle, would it blend well into the dress, or would it look funny/stick out from the dress because the train is detachable? If it would blend with the dress, I would say try a bustle, because I also really like the flower detailing wh...

Bustle question

Hello everyone! I don''t post very often, but I have a question about my dress that I would like you ladies to help me with. I finally found a dress that didn''t overwhelm my short frame (I''m only 4''11") and that was in my budget. It''s a Linea Raffaelli (a Belgian designer) that was a sample that...

Hi, Did you take a look at Longchamp? Here in Belgium their bags are pretty popular and not too expensive. I saw a black leather backpack on their website (but they only had one type available in leather. The rest are heavy-duty canvas with leather accents). Also, I believe that they have stores in ...
