Oleg Cassini and also adding sleeves or Bolero?

I have had problems with the Casablanca dress I just bought-the train has a tear in it and it is tulle,so the only real way to fix it is to shorten the train :/

I wanted a cathederal train and it's only a Semi-cathederal to begin with-I'm just not willing to sacrifice it.

So I have purchased the Oleg Cassini ct291 from DB-I tried it on before I bought the Casablanca and I couldn't get it out of my head! I will have to try and sell the other gown since I obviously won't get to wear it.

Back to what I wanted to ASK: Has anyone added sleeves or found a beautiful bolero to go with their gown- especially the Oleg Cassini...?

    Yeah,the casablanca was as is...It would be fine for someone who wouldn't mind a shorter train and it really was a beautiful gown too.

    I just love the Oleg cassini-I was 'trying' to save us some money and force myself to fall out of love with the OC gown..lol,guess it was meant to be after all...

    Went for my 3rd fitting today.. the bridal salon i bought my dress from has an inhouse seamstress.. she's doing all my alterations but she's also making me a really (off the shoulder type) bolero cuz I cant stand my arms!

    I have a very religious family and so I'm trying to be considerate of them-I actually (suprisingly!) don't mind the strapless.

    I LOVE the Oleg Cassini too! The other girls at DB said "you've had 3 kids?" lol,it flatters me well I think Smiley smile

    I bought my dress from DB, its not Cassini but its a simliar style as yours. I actually did add sleeves to my dress. I'll post pics after the wedding if you want to check them out. I ordered extra fabric from DB when I ordered the dress to add the sleeves (to make sure the dye matches although its all white satin).

    Thought I'd respond about the sleeves here instead of the other thread. ^^

    Here are some suggestions for a wrap, sheer, sleeves etc, that I found:

    1) http://www.wraporshrug.co.uk/department/bridal_shrugs/

    2) http://www.designingbride.com/store/index.php?cPath=3_15

    or perhaps a custom one?
