Edited - I bought a dress for the Nov wedding - this one is more appropriate, right?

I am going crazy on ebay, etc. trying to find an appropriate dress for this Fall wedding I am going to at The Rainbow Room in NYC. I really like this Diane Von Furstenberg dress, but I think it may be a little 'springy' - if I throw a wrap over this, could I get away with it at a November wedding?http://kugermilan.com/516dvfpink.jpg

ugh -I am so bad at posting pics - please click on the link above

see a pic of the dress I just bought below!

Re: Honest opinions - does this look like a dress I could wear to a Nov 3 wedding?

I love it! However, from the pic it does look too springy. It looks almost see through.

I think you could totally get away with it with a wrap. it's gorgeous!
I have a lot of DVF stuff so I know that material. its not see through.

Try Nordstroms website. They have great dresses. I think that dress is v. pretty but is very springy/summery.

I love the dress! But the pattern is a bit springy. I like lord and taylor's evening section for cocktail dresses. I got one for my cousin's wedding last November.

It's a lovely dress, but I think it's best for a Spring/Summer wedding than a fall wedding at the Rainbow Room...sorry!

It beautiful but does look a bit 'Springy' to me. I think if it had darker colors, it would be more 'Fall' like. JMHO.
