Mori Lee Brides

HappyGoldConfetti513, 25 March, 2016 at 19:00 Posted on Planning 0 10

Hi, has anyone got any pics of them wearing Mori Lee style 1957. I have this dress on order but am having major wobbles.

I loved it when i ordered it but for some reason i am now thinking does it have any wow factor. I have tried it on since i ordered it but it looked so different to first time round.

I just seem to look like myself in a dress, not that gasp of wow you look amazing if you know what i mean.

thanks for any help xx

    I've just googled it as well & it's stunning, I love it! I have a Mori Lee although it's not this one and I felt similar to you the second time I tried it on. I think you get the wow the first time but there is so much pressure to always love it & cry when you put it back on and I haven't felt like that. I have to say though when I went back for my first fitting, and it was all pinned in place to fit me perfectly and I felt the wow again!

    I think we all have little dress wobbles but it will be perfect I'm sure, and it definitely has wow factor - the back is beautiful xxx

    That's a lovely dress! It's definitely got the wow factor what with the beading, the sparkles and the lovely back. There's nothing to worry about at all :-) X

    Hi!

    This is my dress too. ?

    I bought it online without trying it on and i was not disappointed when it arrived. The neckline and detailing down the back is so gorgeous and sparkly. The pictures really do not do it justice.

    I hope that when your dress finally arrives you love it as much as i do.

    Mine needs altering quite a bit as it's too long and difficult to move in.

    To bling it up a bit i bid on an unworn mori lee belt off of Ebay. It retails at £110 but i managed to get it for £40. It just adds that little something extra. ?

    I unfortunately don't have any pics of myself in the dress though as I've put it in to hiding, away from my fiance.

    Ah thank you ladies for your lovely comments. Yes it would make sense about not feeling wow second time trying. I tried so many dresses i didn't like or suit me that i was so delighted to find this one, It actually fit me quite well when i tried it first time but amazingly i have lost weight and the sample this time was pegged to within an inch of its life and perhaps that didn't help as it looked all a but wrong.

    I think i should stop looking at twig thin lovely models in other dresses on google, i keep trying to remind myself no one stands in those poses, and that probably brings out the best in the dresses. I always envisaged the day i got married i'd look super sexy and the whole congregation needing oxygen masks as they fought for breath and in reality i just think spanx and airbrushing!!

    Haha. Don't forget you're not seeing the full effect yet. Make up, hair, jewellery, flowers etc etc not to mention the emotion ofnthe day and the happiness radiating out of you. Not to mention the dress fitting come to that. Don't worry. You will be stunning.

    Yes you are definitely right that i have lost sight of the full picture, i did have that vision to start. i have started looking at everything as its individual self.

    Don't even get me started on flowers, still haven't arranged anything there as i can't get my head around the cost!

    By the way thank you Charlie Bob for finding those pics, x
