Combining Styles

For one reason or another, a gown may not fit into any one bustling style and a combination of techniques have to be used to get the train up and away from where guests could step on it. Often the layers have to be bustled separately, but can still be done in the same style. This gown didn't take well to that. Both the bride and I liked the look of a Ballroom bustle for this back but the sheerness of the organza made the lining look very funny when I pinned it into a Ballroom Bustle.
