OM dress *Flash* - Model vs Real

Posted on Planning 95

I thought it would be fun to flash a pic of the dress as you first saw it on the model and then what you looked like wearing it on the day.

This thread may hopefully help new brides choose their dress, as the picture of the model in the dress doesnt reflect how it will actually look when you try it on xx

I saw this dress in Perfect Wedding Magazine:

    Model in the dress (incredibly tall!)


    The photo of me is not very good, I took it myself and my dress isn't on properly as it is tie up and I was alone. I hope it gives an idea of it anyway.


    It would be tighter than this when done up so I would have more shape than in the picture. (MIL2bs bedroom BTW).

    Don't have a model pic of my dress (the designer changed all their photos and as mine was end of line they didn't reshoot and wouldn't send me one!!!)

    I checked their website and this is the closest match!

    I love this thread! Model pictures are rubbish aren't they, I will never understand why they always make the models do the silly poses with the moody faces!
