2nd attempt at dress shopping!! NOW WITH FLASH!!

grace85, 31 July, 2010 at 16:09 Posted on Planning 0 48

So I went in today to try some more dresses on and I'm soo glad I did!! I have found my dress, everything I ever wanted and more. I'm out at the mo so I'll flash a picture later. I'm so happy now, I actually feel like a bride! Now let's hope landy can do the same dress. Xxxx

UPDATE - Ok so Landy don't have the same dress but i've got it down to 3 that i like equally as much.

The main thing that i loved about the one i've tried was the fishtail shape, without sounded big headed it gave me such an amazing shape, lol, I'm quite a curvy girl and really emphisised (sp) my waist.

Here's the one i tried in the shop.....


And here are the 3 from Landy that i need to choose from....




My mum loves the first landy one and i think with the sash in the same blue as my BM's dresses would look stunning!

I'm going to keep looking at them all week and make a decsion next weekend.

So ladies, opinions please??

    I like both the 1st and 2nd landy ones but I think the sash on the 1st puts that one in top place. They are all lovely dresses though, whichever you choose. x

    For me it's number 2.

    I love a vintage looking dress and I'm not a big fan of colour on wedding dresses.

    It really is whatever makes you feel amazing though - I wouldn't care if everyone on Hitched hated mine I'd still know it was the one hehe!

    I like the first and think it most closely matched the one you tried on. So glad you feel better Grace- I also swapped dresses so know how you have been feeling!

    Hi Grace if I was choosing the dress I would either go for 1,2 or 3 I love them - no.4 doesn't do it for me personally but whichever one you choose you will look stunning! xx

    Another vote for number 1 from me!

    I love the sash and I think it will really show off your waist and your figure!

    I like the 1st one the best. The 2nd one, for me, is just a bit too fussy and heavy on the lace. The 3rd is unusual and I do like it but the 1st one wins it for me.

    The first one is gorgeous, the sash finishes it off without detracting from the dress. Not keen on number 3 x

    I like the last one, but only because it's similar to what I want and to the dress I am thinking of having, subject to it still being available as mine is a 2009 model and I have been told they discontinue them now and again... I like the bodice on the 3rd AND the shape - excellent for curvy / hourglass ladies! :0)

    But the top one also is very elegant, very Audrey Hepburn-ish!

    I was worried about that too Gillsy, also if I got it in ivory would it look yellowy? Xx

    I think 1 and 2 are absolutley stunning, exactly what I would pick (and practically did - I had a lace fishtail with sash!). Fishtail is great for curves!

    it would depend on the shade of ivory but I should think that it wouldn't look yellowy

    I like number 1 but prefer the neckline on number 2. Love that romantic look.

    I love the first Landy one best! Not so keen on no 2 and I like no 3.

    Just out of curiousity what colour blue will your bridesmaids be in? Just being nosy really!!! I think it would look lovely with a blue sash.

    Hi Grace,

    I'm soo pleased for you that you found something that made you feel wow.

    They are all lovely looking dresses, but I think no.1 is my favourite and with the sash will set it all off..

    but I like no.2 too

    Morning Ladies,

    Thank you all for your reply, looks like number 1 is a definate favourite.

    This is my BM's dresses so the sash would be the same as this....


    I'm still going to mull over it for a couple of days and then get the lady that will be doing the alterations to measure me properly.

    Also i'm not sure whether to pay for it with my debit card or a credit card, do i get the same protection with a debit card?

    xx
