Dress wobbles

Vjh, 26 June, 2022 at 13:52 Posted on Wedding Attire 0 5
I jumped the gun a touch and have already bought a dress, we get married next October.
It was a really good deal, it was a dress I had been eyeing up on the wed2b website and then saw it for a fraction of the cost on the stillwhite website.

Since then, I’ve been wondering if it’s really the “right” dress for me. I’ve gone for a structured ball gown, very plain, because it’s my second wedding and I didn’t feel like I deserved a flashy dress. But now I’m really reconsidering everything.The original dress is stunning, I think it is very classic and pretty…but it doesn’t exactly make me feel special. Smiley sad it’s also too big (even though the tag says my size) I’ve included pics of me wearing it and the pic of the model wearing it. Am I being daft? Should I just stick with the dress I have? Or shall I look again? Dress wobbles 1Dress wobbles 2

    If it was the one you wanted originally my plan would be (if you can afford it) to hold onto it and keep looking. If you find one that your prefer then sell this one on a similar site that you found it on?
    If you don't find another you love more then it was meant to be! X

    I think you’re right, I think I just need to go in to a dress shop or two and try some others on to see how I feel and if I find another, I’ll make it work.

    I think you should look again. Just because it’s your second wedding doesn’t mean you don’t get to feel fantastic. You could also look into altering this dress and adding something that you feel
    Is missing.


    You didn’t settle with the first man you married as it wasn’t right. Why settle for anything less than fantastic now?

    The most important thing is “how does the dress make you feel?”
    I’d pin the back or get a friend to hold it, so you can then imagine how it would be once taken in. If you feel good in the dress then it’s a good signed you should keep it but if not, then keep looking
