A wedding dress train extends from a wide pale skirt in this garden photograph. The location describes the photograph, not the garment’s origins. If you are considering a similar secondhand shape, ask for a closer view of the join between the bodice and skirt and the parts that have touched the ground. Current detail photographs are more useful for this purpose than another atmospheric full-length image.
Also decide how you would handle the train throughout the celebration. You may want it spread for the ceremony and need a different arrangement for walking to dinner. Ask to see any existing method for securing it on the actual dress. If renting, establish permission before planning alterations. Try the shoulder details while greeting someone and putting on your outer layer. This reference is especially helpful for comparing volume and the shoulder line; condition, measurements and permitted changes still need to be resolved through the real offer before you commit to wearing it.
