Need opinion on bridesmaid's dress

http://www.alfredangelo.com/maids/m62833f.htm

Just want some opinions on this Alfred Angelo dress. My bridesmaids range from size 2 to 22 and I just saw this on the Alfred Angelo website. Any opinions on how this would look on my various size websites? Thanks in advance!

It is a beautiful dress, but the size 22 person may have some problems with it. If you are looking for something that will look good on everyone you might want to try something that has an empire waist and is an a-line dress. No one of any body type looks bad in a dress like that. Alfred Angelo makes some really pretty dresses that will flatter any figure so you are in the right place. Good luck.

I am not sure but I thought the exact opposite about the empire waist line for bigger girls. Anyway I am having a brunch for my girls tommorow and we are going dress shopping tommorow. I am have a real problem in that one of my bridesmaids (my sister, the size 22 who is very very well endowed) just got married and moved to England. She is here this week for the holiday but then she wont be back in the U.S. at all until I guess about a week before my wedding. I really want to find a dress for her while she is here becuase it will be immpossible to shop with out her here.
I was thinking that shirt like top wouldnt down play her in the bust area. Hopefull David's will have a sample in her size to try on.

I dont know if I really have a theme. I guess fall since its Nov 4. How about your theme? When is your wedding again?

As far as a make up artist I dont think I am having one. I met a guy at the MAC counter in Macy's Brooklyn who seems excellent but that would be a luxury item for me and out of my budget to be honest. Besides two of my bridemaids are very make up/ fashion oriented and so I have been calling them my stylist. I guess about a week or so before the wedding we will all go to the mac couter and get some application tips and buy some new stuff and they will apply it for me on the day of.

Bridesmaids Dresses: Jenny B

Hey Jenny!

If she thinks it is great for her then go for it!!! It is really most important that the bridesmaids feel comfortable in what their wearing. If they FEEL beautiful then it will show through out the day. I designed my own bridesmaids gowns so they have no choice there. We all are debating color though! They also get to pick their own up-do so that they feel BEAUTIFUL that day. I've been in weddings where I was forced to wear a matching hairstyle that made me a look like a dork:)!!! Anyway, I like the dress you've chosen and if they like it, go for it!
