Help! Which dress?

Tina Teaspoon, 25 July, 2010 at 15:28 Posted on Planning 0 32

I went dress shopping yesterday for the first time and had so much fun! I didn't think I would to be honest as I was so nervous and really didn't know what I wanted, but it was a lovely day. Anyway, 3 shops later, I now have 4 dresses that I really liked, and I can't choose between them! I'm going to go back and try them all on again, but in the meantime, which do you ladies like best?

I'm having no luck with photos today so am just going to post links, sorry:

Dress no 1: http://www.creatiques.co.uk/amandawyatt.htm (Hope this comes up with the right photo - the model is sitting/ lying down. It's the only photo I can find but it's not a very good one!)

Dress no 2: https://www.marklesley.co.uk/Mark-Lesley.html (You need to use the menu on the right to choose style no 2022 on p60)

Dress no 3: https://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-got-the-dress/ (Not the designer's website, but the best link I could find)

Dress no 4: http://www.maggiesottero.com/dress.aspx?page=9&style=A3321

Help!

    They are all beautiful - but dress number 3 wins it for me. It's elegant and I guess I love it because it's so similar to mine! x

    How exciting - I can't wait to go dress shopping - I'm glad you had a good time!

    I can see why you can't decide, they are all such pretty dresses. My favourite two (using your numbering) are number 2 and number 3. I don't think I could decide between them from the pictures though Smiley smile I love the waistline decoration of the third one but I love the back of the number two!

    Sorry I'm not much help. Take your time making a decision and enjoy it!

    I love the 3rd and 4th ones!

    I am slightly biased with number three though cos i tried that one on and loved it but in the end went for another Romantica dress, just waiting (not very patiently) for it to arrive lol

    But im sure when you try them all again you be able to decide

    Good luck

    It is so hard! I love them all but they are all quite different from each other which doesn't help at all! Wish I had a decent photo of the first one to show you, why on earth did they think it would be a good idea to only show the top half?!

    I didn't have a "The One" moment but at least I know I will be happy in any of these no matter what I choose.

    Or perhaps I'll let Hitched take control, let everyone reply to this and choose the one that gets the most votes ?

    I love 3 and 4. Only problem with 4 is you need a killer figure to carry it off! Think 3 is my favourite. Smiley smile

    Aaargh I am going to have to buy them all based on this! ?

    Lorna - yes, I tried them all yesterday and they were all really really nice.

    No 1 and 4 are the two that stand out most in my head I think, but I'm not sure if that is because they were the first and last dresses I tried on! I *think* I like the Maggie best, but am a bit unsure becuse it is so unlike anything that I thought I'd go for. And also the women in the shop were a tiny bit abrupt, which makes me feel a bit ? about buying from them. It did look amazing on though! (But then so did the other 3 - oh dear...)

    My fave is the Maggie - it's stunning and I love the back detail

    Only thing is how do you want your hair? Because if you went with the Maggie you would need an up do to show the dress of properly so this is the only reason I wouldn't choose it because I want my hair down.

    Thanks Becky ?

    Good point about the hair VickyJay, I was thinking about having it half up, half down, so that is causing me a few wobbles about the dress. If I have it up then I'll probably end up with a more formal look than I was originally imagining. My mum thinks I still might get away with half up, half down as my hair isn't that long (around shoulder length) so you would still see most of the back, but I'm not sure if it might look a bit weird.

    My fave is the Maggie Sottero, its a beautiful style and quite unique.

    all depends on your style and shape though. I tried some lovely dresses on that my CBM & mum said just werent 'me'!

    if ur still stuck, at least it means you get a nother fun day trying dresses on!!!?

    I think it depends on your body shape, as dress no 4 is lovely and elegant but on me for example it would look stupid!

    I really like no 2 too, and no 3 I like the details (flower etc)
