LOBSTER TAIL BUSTLE with TRAIN SUPPORTER

to make your beautiful dresses with trains more dramatic!!!

supports your train and keeps the train from laying flat.

Popular during the "Bustle Revival Period" of 1883 to 1889

for dresses with slight 1 to 2 foot trains

This lovely loster tail bustle cage  with train support was custom made NEW from a Laughing moon Bustle pattern. This is the  knee length trained version of the lobster cage bustle that adds the astonishing lovely shaping to the bustle dresses and gowns that feature smaller trains, 1 to 2 feet.We use heavy weight bleached white  muslin fabric. The lobster tail cage  with train is formed by eight(8) casings with hoop steel inside the casings. A bottom set of stays, and a top set of stays, are built into the bustle to control shaping. The stays are adjusted by loosening or tightening the drawstrings( shoelaces) laced in one eighth inch grommets. The tighter you pull the stays drawstrings, the more pronounced the bustle hump becomes. A bustle pad comes with the cage. The bustle pad is worn under the hump for extra support when you are wearing the very heavy velvet and wool dresses. The waistline closes with hook and bars.This bustle can be custom ordered in any size from a 22 waist to a 52 waist. Please email your waist measurements with payment in the "note to seller section" on the paypal invoice.  Allow 4 to 5 days for custom making your trained lobster tail knee length bustle.
