How do you sew a train for a wedding dress?
Comments (1)I can't think of a way to add a train to the bottom of a wedding dress without it looking like an after thought. The train is usually cut with the back of the dress and of the same fabric. The only fabric you might be able to use would be lace, and I don't believe that would look nice just added to the bottom. It might work to add it from the waistline, but you would probably need toches of it elsewhere on the gown. Good luck!...See MoreNiece's wedding - dress shopping
Comments (20)Thank you all for taking the time to reply - I've been so busy at work today I haven't had time to check back much. Re: the first green RL dress... I didn't think of to mention it earlier, but looking at that photo made me realize I don't wear or particularly care for that type of drapy neckline. I think it's probably because I'm fairly large busted, and don't need any more oompf in that area. :) I love the second green / black patterned one but it's probably not what I'm searching for for a June wedding. I also really like the floral one. I seem to be at a stage in my life where I second guess a lot of what I like, or I think I like - wondering "am I too old for that??" - but then sometimes I tend to sway too far to the 'safe' side and end up dressing too old. These are two more that I like.... the first is from ModCloth. Also comes in a deep sapphire blue. And I can't get a picture to load of this one, sorry. http://www.bhldn.com/product/eleanor-dress...See MoreGuest wedding dress - need wrap, sweater...something
Comments (12)I agree with Sue.. you would need a cropped sweater or shrug and even still it may be difficult to get the right length. I think it's a lovely dress and I'd go with a wrap if it provides the warmth you'll need. I have a late Oct outdoor wedding.. I don't think a wrap will be sufficient for my situation....See MoreYet another wedding dress question...
Comments (96)annie, you are right about the meger selection in the department stores at the moment. I saw that when I went to buy my 9 year old grandson a few new garments, at Kohls. I swear that there were no more than about six racks or shelves of anything, at all in that section. And, most of it was the same old, same old stuff on every one of them. All of it was awful synthetic stuff. I walked out empty handed and havent been back to Kohls since. The womens clohtes were just as limited and just as awful. Online purchasing is becoming more necessary when the stores are declining so very much. With online ordering you never know what it feels like, or where any element is going to rest on your figure. I simply cannot do it or be bothered with all of that shipping back and forth. So glad that I can sew, although about the only thing that I can find to sew with anymore is linen that I do order online. The quality of this vendor is consistent and reliable and there are no fitting issues involved with the ordering. I am convinced that many of these fashion photos are altered to make the models legs look so absurdly long! I have seen some that are so exaggerated that it is almost laughable. Shopping for just about anything has become a chore....See Moredebrak_2008
