Go with your first impression...too fluffy. How far away do you really want your 'husband' to stand as you are presenting your vows, dancing, even walking? It looks like a stunning dress for pictures if you are the only one in the picture. Have you tried it on? Maybe you are the best one to answer your own question.
Yeah that dress definatly isnt for me...its too puffy ive desided to go much, much less puffier...Oh by the way Dancing girl I LOVE your dress the top of it...It looks like a corset but isnt
Wow, nice dress but you gotta ask, how many layers of crinoline are under that? I'm a fan of A-line, adding an extra layer of crinoline under mine, but no way is it that big. haha Another thought, how long would it take your fiance to get under that dress to find your garter? Or you?

XOrlyBearX, (I don't even know how I should abbreviate that name, LOL!)
Thanks for your comments! That is a Davids Bridal dress and it also comes in white. (mine is Ivory and Rum Pink as you can tell)
Mine is going to be very FULL as well...it has I believe 9 layers of tulle and whatever else under there, and that's not including the petticoat. It has a cathedral train too that will be bustled up underneath the layers in the back. I am not wearing the petticoat in the picture I posted on the other one. So didn't show as much poof.
I want to look like a princess and even if I am uncomfortable - I won't care... I know what I WANT to look like that day, and I'll suffer through it. But as they say "the day flies by" - so it may not be that bad!
Oh god that would be my worse nightmare...I hate being uncomfortable. I am wearing flip flops at my wedding so my feet dont hurt and I am definalty not going to pick a dress that makes me uncomfortable.
I know I'm super late here but, I love the design of this dress but, I do agree, is there a way to minimize the puffiness of the bottom? I really think it's beautiful though.
This dress is still one of my options. I saw it at Davids bridal. I haven't tried it on yet but it didn't seem very poufy it depends on how big the crinolin skirt is you put inder it. The only thing that may stop me is that up close you can see that it has little diamond like studs on the first layer of tulle on the dress. If I remember correctly the whole thing isn't made of the tulle. I think it was the top layer or top two layers only.
I like the a-line style of it...but - strapless is only good on women with good posture (I am a physiotherapist!). So many women have rounded shoulders....so strenghthen up those rhomboids.
