    Both dresses are fab, but if I think right the second dress is a Maggie Sottero am I right?

    If yes, then I should tell you that they come with the most fabulous corset inside them which will pull you in all the right places and give you a nice flat tum - so you have nowt to worry about

    Awww both dresses are lovely, and I am not a dress expert (mine was Monsoon and I didn't try any 'proper' ones on!) but they both look similar, so if the first one looks lovely I can't see why the 2nd one wouldn't? But I don't know much as I said lol. But I do love both of them, the style is fab. Which of course doesn't help you much......

    Both dresses are gorgeous. But the one you have chosen is a knock out. I'm a size 18 and similar figure to you and I think you'll look stunning in either dress.

    Not much help, sorry.

    Neither are my style but from a practical point of view as someone with a big chest I think the second would be better for a bigger bust the straps look sturdy. Is there anything else to sway you like price or something??? Certainly don't think you will look like a bag of spuds though

    Both are lovely. If I had to choose one it would be the second.

    I assume you'd lose some money if you cancel your order now? so long as you are comfortable with that then go with the one you prefer, then stop looking at dresses!!

    Both are really quite different but I love the second one and think it would look great on. If anything I would have thought the second would flatter more than the first but that is maybe because I'm not too keen on the first.

    The dropped waist on the second is like my own dress and it is mega flattering. It lengthens me and gives me a tiny waist.

    You'll really only know if you try them both on.

    Hi the top dress is a Mori Lee and the bottom one is a Sottero & Midgeley but i have ordered the top one through a seller on ebay and would do the same with the second if i was to get it as i dont want to be paying full price for a wedding dress, so the internal corsetry wouldnt be the same as the original i suppose, i am just dithering i suppose cos i loved the first one the second i saw it and it is ordered and on its way but i cant stop thinking about the second one either

    Both are lovely but i think the first dress (the one you have ordered) is lovely, stick with your decision! ?

    In that case wait until you get the first one delivered and try it on as once you have it on you'll know whether you love it enough or not. I had wobbles last week but have now realised my dress is the one so it is only natural to have a wobble occasionally.

    I actually think the first dress is much nicer than the second - the second isn't really my cup of tea, am not a massive fan of that almost shiny looking material if that makes sense (just my opinion obviously!) I actually love the first one, it's simple but unique at the same time and I'm sure you will look gorgeous in it!

    WSS, wait until it arrives and you've tried it on, if you still have serious doubts then consider getting the second one (or another one enirely).

    They're both gorgeous. Sometimes I think it's best to stick with your first choice ?

    Hi there, im a size 16 up top and size 18 on bottom, I went for a dress similar to the second one, it is a corset type dress and pulls me in in all the right places, I love it as I look amazing (if I say so myself,lol) gives me the perfect hour glass figure and its not uncomfortable, I would go with the second one.

    I think the second one would have much better support then the first one as the straps are pretty dainty.
