Wedding Dress...Too Simple?

Does anyone think this is too simple for a wedding dress? It's very simple but expensive at nearly 700 - probably another 150 more for alterations. I'm very petite and even a size 2 would not fit. :(

Your thoughts? Maybe I should just find a simple gown and cheaper dress and buy a sash similar to the one in the dress for it? Where would I get a simple dress like this?

Re: Wedding Dress...Too Simple?

I think its lovely. PLus, if you are that petite where a size 2 is too big I think simple is best. That dress will look so elegant on your frame and you wont get lost in it.

I agree. I'm very small, too and when I tried on big dresses I felt tiny and overwhelmed by them. I think that dress is beautiful, so if you love it, go for it.

Re: Wedding Dress...Too Simple?

Any simple dress is the perfect platform to add jewelry or a headpiece that might be too elaborate to wear with a really detailed dress.

It's a gorgeous gown and the sash gives it just enough decoration!

Re: Wedding Dress...Too Simple?

its beautiful! and i agree... if you're tiny, a simple dress without too much beading, etc is best... my friend is very tiny- tall, but VERY skiinny... and she wore a dress similar to that and it was very pretty!!

Re: Wedding Dress...Too Simple?

I do not think it is too simple. The dress I am actually looking into is also very simple. Probably even more simple than the one you are considering except for a fuller skirt. I love it!
