Now and then, a wedding day "disaster" may occur that threatens a beautiful bride-to-be's peace of mind. One of these wedding day snafus is a broken bustle. If your wedding dress is a bustle-style design, you need to know how to deal with a bustle malfunction, before it has a negative impact on your nuptials. Luckily, there are a couple of ways to deal with broken bustles, and neither of them requires the skills of a seamstress.
The secret of fixing a broken bustle is having some clear fishing line on hand. When your bustle breaks, you may use a needle threaded with fishing line to sew up the bustle's tie. Locating this tie should be pretty easy.
Another strategy is to keep some extra-large safety pins around. When you have trouble with your gown's bustle, use the safety pins in order to repair the problem quickly and easily.
You should be able to make the repair in just a few minutes.
