I was trying on wedding dresses at a consignment shop today with a friend of mine and we found one that about bowled us both over. It was perfect: glamorous, unique, fit me like a glove too.
It''s an ivory silk trumpet cut strapless dress with a short train. But the thing that made it special was that around the bust line was a mink "collar" (do you call it a collar if it''s around the bust?). It comes with mink trimmed gloves and a mink headpiece that you can attach a veil to (although I''m thinking birdcage is the only thing that would go).
I felt like a MOVIE STAR! It totally shows off my curves and is completely 1940''s chic. As glamorous as I have ever felt did I feel in this dress.
The catch: how late in the season can you wear fur trim on something without looking foolish? Our wedding (part 1) is scheduled for March 21st.
But for part 2, I assume April is too late for fur? Or could I get away with it without the gloves? (as in, just a little trim).
