Two Toned Blue Taffeta and Chocolate Sash

Bridal belts or wedding sashes are a fun and easy way to add instant personality to a gown, especially if the belts are handcrafted for you lovingly like the ones in Make Believe’N. Browse through the shop and find a design that calls out your name. Krissy says that all items are one of a kind but can be recreated within reason.

Charcoal Graphite and Beige Sash

Her designer bridal belts come in  various lengths, colors and textures. The flower embellishments are handmade and every petal is deliberately formed into delicate layers, crafted to resemble blooms such as peonies, hydrangea, and poppies.

Cream Blush and Beige Wedding Sash

Some of the flowers come with detachable authentic vintage brooch centers with sparkling rhinestones that you can wear on their own on other occasions.

Chiffon and Satin Fabric Wedding Sash Pure White with a Vintage Blue Brooch

The floral creations aren’t limited to the waist, they can be worn as gown appliques or the belt can be used as a shoulder sash . Use the brooch to pin it on your dress.

Black and Buff and Lace Bridal Belt

The beauty of Krissy’s wedding gown belts is that they can be worn after the wedding as well! Wear them with your LBD or use the vintage brooches to gussy up a tired old top.
