OM dress *Flash* - Model vs Real

Laura you should get this dress its amazing!!!

Heres the model

Heres me she didn't get any proper full length ones. so these 2 piece it together kind of.

I love thi s dress. who is it by? did you have the shoulder strap added?

Model...

Meee...

Ladies, all your dresses are amazing and I can genuinely say that you all look so much better in your dresses than the models!

FTLOMB, I have never once seen a picture of you & you are completely different to what I'd imagined.

You looked ruddy gorgeous in that dress!

Pick number twooooooooo! It's bloody gorgeous on you. Everyone looks better than the models. Kharv your model really shows off the dress well, but I think it looks better with a bit more curves. Footlong, yours is the bestest best dress in the whole wide world ever! I love it so much and the photo of you dancing makes me want to poke my eyes (in a totally non -weirdo way) out it's so beautiful.

This is the model

a bit of a better one on a catwalk

and me pre-alterations and in a teeny dressing room taking a naughty snap in the mirror.

The model appears to be about ten inches taller than me!

Thanks Gemgem. No the shoulder strap came with it, as did the cathedral length veil. It's by Ronald Joyce and called Livia.

Saspip, this dress looks stunning on you!!

Finally an OM so can join in! Here's my dress on the model





And here's me in it:-



I edited the dress slightly as I did away with the flower and swapped it for a sash and a vintage inspired brooch.

Here is the back (although, not a very good picture)

Theres no model pic of my dress but here is the mannequin version;

and heres me;

model obviously...

the top pic of me is the only close up one i have that shows the detail off properly

On the model

on me (friend's photo at first)

sorry for so many photos - any excuse

This is mine..

and on me...

And on me, with train removed, detachable sleeves added and 3 or 4 layers of underskirt removed (and still looking more princessy and swishy than the model pic!)

Wow this is a stunning dress and you look gorgeous in it.Do you mind me asking which designer this is? ?

Thanks you sooo much for all the advice on the 2 dresses I put up - think it's unanimous that everyone thinks dress number 2 which is good coz that is my favveeeee too I'm going back to try it on again next Friday and can't wait!!!!! xxx

New to this so forgot to copy the post. This dress is stunning and you look gorgeous in it. Would you mind if I asked which designer this is. xxx

I don't actually know how to quote on an iPad - I don't seem to be able to.

The dress is Allure Bridal 8825.

Oooo what a cool thread!!

On the v skinny tall model...

And me last month....

love your dress sweetpea!

OMG you have the ariel dress! I sooo wana try this on, managed to find a shop near me with the disney dresses but they didnt have this one. I really want a one shoulder dress.

You look fabulous Rosability! And it looks better on you than the model ? You're also my dress twin! I have never seen anyone post a picture of it or seen it in a magazine before. Mine wont arrive until Nov so no pics of me in it yet. I just hope i look as good as you in it!

Not an OM just yet (nearly!) but for the meantime here's my model pic and me at my dress fitting.

I love it! You look fab. I think your model and roseabilty's must have gone to the same modelling school. Seems the little teapot pose is all the rage.

Thank you! Yeah I know lol what the hell is she doing with her left arm??

hahaha!

L am LOVING this thread, you all look amazing! And after having dress wobbles after showing people model pics of my dress i am now feeling much happier as you all look so much better than the models!
