Bridal Buddy - As Seen On Shark Tank

I loved it, is really cool

This product did not work out for me at all. The bottom of it is elastic and was kind of long so I kept tripping on it. When I used it to lift my dress up it did not work. I still needed to have two people help. It was also super hot so I ended up ripping it off as soon as I had a chance.

The drawstring around your waist is elastic so unless you’re wearing a corset, it’s probably going to dig into your waist or not be able to support the weight of your skirts, one or the other. A thick fabric or elastic waistband with a drawstring would have been a better option, even if that meant that you would then have to introduce sizing rather than having a one size fits all garment.That being said, it mostly does work well. I wore it to manage my renaissance fest skirts and I think it works best if you’re able to sit on the toilet seat after gathering the skirts. It’s hard to manage around the big poof if you’re trying to squat over the seat, too. But it does keep the skirts up off the floor and out of questionable puddles while you do your business. Just take something along to sanitize the toilet seat before you sit on it, and you’ll be fine.The fabric itself is synthetic, so it’s going to be a bit warmer. It wasn’t terrible- it is thin, and I was wearing it in October- but I could see this thing getting hot in the summer. Maybe they need a summer version made of cotton gauze or something.

Going to be honest this contraption did not work as intended and was not as easy as described. People say they wore it during their entire reception but the drawstrings are a little dangerous and would be very easy to trip over. Yes it’s better than having a bunch of bridesmaids holding the dress up for you but it’s not worth the hassle and price in my opinion. Ended up taking longer to figure out how to use it so avoided using the bathroom after the first time because I almost tripped with it on as well so had to put it on when going to the restroom each time. Im sure there are cheaper options that work just as well.

Made my wedding super easy because I didn't have to worry about my dress falling in the toilet lol HOWEVER the tie-able side is meant to be the longest part of the skirt, but I had to have it at my waist, because the not-tighten-able side was wide enough to fit a whole sofa, so I'm not sure how anyone is supposed to fit into that.
