Checked the catalog and didn't see one.
Need help with this, please don't judge me. (It's Bagley Mischka Collection and so I don't want to fuck it up, it cost a lot). I need to take a few inches off even with heels, should I: leave the entire back train and just shorten the front; take a uniform amount off so that the front hem is right at floor length; or, make the entire gown floor length. The last seems like the worst option but would prevent any damage to the silk. I would love to wear it as is but that would absolutely ruin it and I couldn't walk in it.

manlets... when will they learn?

personally i'd shorten the back until it's an inch past floor length in heels so it's less likely to get stepped on but still flattering and make the front floor length. The dress is already expensive so it wouldn't hurt to invest in getting it tailored professionally too

For reference here's how it looks on the site compared to my mannequin which is adjusted to my height http://www.badgleymischka.com/EG1314/

That sounds like a good compromise, thanks. And I do a ton of sewing, i think handsewn hemming looks much nicer on silk than machine sewing. The last time I used a professional tailor for something silk I really hated how it looked. They pretty much only know how to do suits and pants
