[Morgie44]

Thanks for all the feedback on my first set of dresses. Shopping 1 i would love more opinions on the newest batch.

Dress 2

Dress 2 again

The first pic of this dress was waay too big, the second is closer to my size.

Dress 3

 

[MrsG]

I said WOW when I saw the first one. LOVE the lace on the front and from what I can see in your reflection, there are some pretty details on the back too (I might be mistaken though). I think it''s beautiful.

 

[oobiecoo]

I really like the 1st one and 3rd one but the 1st is DEFINITELY more flattering in my opinion.

 

[SarahLovesJS]

You know..I don''t really feel like any of these are "the one." But my favorite so far is number 1 on thread 1!

 

[jstarfireb]

#1 from the first thread, hands down!

Ditto

 

[lliang_chi]

Still not feeling them, but if I HAD to pick, 1st on 1st thread also.

 

[ImpatientOne]

I think the 1st one would look fabulous once it was sized right!!!

 

[museikchik]

I like the third one the best. It looks more "you". I don''t know you personally but you look the most comfortable and happy in that dress.

The first dress is gorgeous!

 

[kama_s]

I think the dress styles you chose last time were more flattering on you. My fav is still dress 1 from your 1st thread.

ETA: I also think ivory looks better on you than champagne. The colour of the first dress you posted in this thread seems to wash you up a little.

If I can be 100% honest, dresses 2 and 3 made you look big and wide which you aren''t.

Dress #1 is very slimming and very flattering. So my vote is #1

 

[Lanie]

Dress number 1 or 2 in your first thread.

In this thread, I like number 2, but only if you could alter off the straps. Those wider straps aren''t working for you.

However, I personally like dress 3 after looking at it again. Is there a reason why you are smiling so huge in that picture? When I was looking back on pictures of me in dresses, I noticed that I was grinning like an idiot in the dress I ended up getting. Sometimes you can see it in the face. (at least with me!)

 

[Morgie44]

Thanks for all the honest replies... I am honestly feeling kind of stuck right now because I have tried on about 100+ dresses and the only dress where I felt in love with was dress #2 from this thread, I''ve tried it on twice now and I love it in person, then when I look at the pictures, it makes me look big. I thought that maybe I was being overly hard on myself but I think you guys have confirmed my suspicions.

I know in my last thread bee suggested a dress for me to try, and I am still trying to track that one down, but does anyone have an idea of another style that might be more flattering for me??

Also, Kama, the dress that I end up with will be either white or light ivory, definitely not that pinkish color.

 

[Smurfysmiles]

I personally would love to see you in something like this. You have a really nice figure and you shouldn''t be afraid to show it off! However if it''s a bigger skirt you''re wanting for sure, I''d have to say I like dress 1 from the first thread. If you do end up liking this dress and want to try it on, it''s at David''s Bridal and it''s half off!

It''s an Oleg Cassini dress.

 

[Morgie44]

Thanks smurfy, I have been leaning towards fuller skirts because the samples of more slim fitting styles never look good in the samples... I think that a lot of this is due to the sample being waaay too small I believe David''s has a better range of sizes for their dresses so maybe I will make a trip...

Morgie, have you tried dress 2 without the straps? I think the widening effect is due to the width of the straps. I keep holding my fingers over them when I am looking at your picture and I feel that it looks a million times better. If you go strapless with it, I think it would be beautiful.

Ditto. Love dress #1- esp the details on the back.

I was thinking the same thing. I think you should go for a strapless.

ditto. I prefer the third dress and you look the happiest in it.

 

[Morgie44]

Here is a photoshopped version without the straps... A bit better, but still I think it''s not as flattering as it is in person

I will keep looking.

 

[dcgator]

I think that last photo looks very flattering but would look even better if you

a bit!

 

[Sabine]

I really like the shape and style of the first one, but to be honest, i find the color difference between the lace and the dress a bit distracting. I think it would be really spectacular if they were the same shade.
