Abstract: A bridal train for adjustably positioning relative to a ground surface. The inventive device includes a skirt web forming a portion of a bridal gown which continues into a train web for trailing behind the gown during a wedding proceeding. Retracting assemblies are secured to inner surfaces of the train web for effecting a pleating and shortening of the train web to a length substantially equal to a length of the skirt web so as to hang the train from the gown and preclude trailing of the train web along a ground surface.
