    It's harder for me to do that, as 1 bridesmaid lives in Nottingham and another 50 miles away from me. None of my bridesmaids work so they can't afford to come over :o( xx

    In that case, you could get them to go out and try ones on they think look best and send you pictures so you can decide? x

    I really like your dress, it's very unusual! I think the nipped in waist and full skirt make it quite 60's looking.

    I don't think it matters what style you go for for the bridesmaids - mine are nothing like my dress really. Why don't you have a look on line at a few styles you like and send them links and stockists and get them to go try them on?

    I think it's very 80's too.

    I'd love to see your bridesmaids in ra-ra skirts. You ought to rock that early Madonna vibe. It could be brilliant.

    Yes you will!

    Strike a pose.
    Strike a pose.
    Vogue, vogue, vogue
    Vogue, vogue, vogue

    Look around everywhere you turn is heartache
    It's everywhere that you go [look around]
    You try everything you can to escape
    The pain of life that you know [life that you know]

    When all else fails and you long to be
    Something better than you are today
    I know a place where you can get away
    It's called a dance floor, and here's what it's for, so

    Chorus:

    Come on, vogue
    Let your body move to the music [move to the music]
    Hey, hey, hey
    Come on, vogue
    Let your body go with the flow [go with the flow]
    You know you can do it

    All you need is your own imagination
    So use it that's what it's for [that's what it's for]
    Go inside, for your finest inspiration
    Your dreams will open the door [open up the door]

    It makes no difference if you're black or white
    If you're a boy or a girl
    If the music's pumping it will give you new life
    You're a superstar, yes, that's what you are, you know it

    (chorus, substituting "groove" for "move")

    Beauty's where you find it
    Not just where you bump and grind it
    Soul is in the musical
    That's where I feel so beautiful
    Magical, life's a ball
    So get up on the dance floor

    (chorus)

    Vogue, [Vogue]
    Beauty's where you find it [move to the music]
    Vogue, [Vogue]
    Beauty's where you find it [go with the flow]

    Greta Garbo, and Monroe
    Dietrich and DiMaggio
    Marlon Brando, Jimmy Dean
    On the cover of a magazine

    Grace Kelly; Harlow, Jean
    Picture of a beauty queen
    Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire
    Ginger Rogers, dance on air

    They had style, they had grace
    Rita Hayworth gave good face
    Lauren, Katherine, Lana too
    Bette Davis, we love you

    Ladies with an attitude
    Fella's that were in the mood
    Don't just stand there, let's get to it
    Strike a pose, there's nothing to it

    Vogue, vogue, vogue, vogue

    Oooh, you've got to
    Let your body move to the music
    Oooh, you've got to just
    Let your body go with the flow
    Oooh, you've got to just,
    Vogue !

    What does that face mean Trickers? I'm still relatively new to hitched. So don't understand the rules etc or the little icons either yet. xx

    I didn't say it looked like something that Madonna would wear, simply you could go Madonna-esque ra-ra skirts for your BM's.

    We said it looked 80's in decade.... the madonna reference came from that.

    If you love it that is all that matters... our opinions are simply that, our opinions...

    If we don't dress up as Jordan for my hen night, we're going to dress as Madonna through the ages and I'm soooo going to get a boy toy outfit to wear....
