Paint a small fabric hook with white nail polish so that it blends in when sewed to the wedding dress. Pick the center of the dress’ train with fingers and sew the painted fabric hook to the dress with woven beaded cord to render strength to the hook. Let the bride try on the dress. Ask one of the bridesmaids to practice picking up the train and attaching it to the fabric hook. Make any necessary adjustments.
