Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

An ad for a “perfect party dress” to celebrate 2000 appeared in the Oct. 27 Tribune. I tried calling Carson’s (but received no response) to ask: How do you enter and sit in the limousine (or your own car)? If the bustle back and train is removable, do you put it on your lap? How do you sit at the dining table? Again does the bustle, etc., just tuck under the table, or do you give it to your escort to deal with? When dancing, are you allotted more circumference on the dance floor, and are other dancers made aware of this so they will not step on the train? Or, again, do you detach bustle and train and hang it on the nearby clothes hook? Most importantly, while in the bathroom, do you just throw the excess over your shoulder?
