Dress regret

Original post by LoveRocks

Does anyone look back and wish they had worn a different dress? My dress was gorgeous, but I think I looked like a barrel in it I wish that I had worn something more flattering to my figure that gave me more of a waist like a corset back dress or something. Don't get me wrong-- I looked good and DH thought I was beautiful, but I think could have looked much better in another dress.

Anyone else feel this way?

I just looked back at your dress because I couldnt remember it other than you looked pretty in it. I LOVED that dress! That was one of the ones I cut out originally but wasn't in my price range.

I think it looked great.



Thank you, Jenn. It was the first pic I cut out of a dress and I loved it at first sight. I just wish that I had looked around a little more before being impulsive.

And I can't stop looking at your day-after pix
They are AMAZING!

D i personally loved the dress on you you look good in everything

For me the only time i all most had a regret is when the seamstress was done taking in my dress on last time and i realized the fabric gathered way too much on my waist and she didn't leave enough room in my stomach area (i didn't have a full corset on so nothing was tehre to suck my gut in). SO I made the mistake of ordering a larger size in fear of gaining when i actually lost. But the dress itself i loved on me just wish it did have a corset back not for just hte look but for the fact i think it would of been easier to fit on me.

Thanks, girl and you seriously rocked the hell out of our dress. I remember that you had some issues with them taking it in so much. I think definitely agree about the corset back and that it gives a great fit.

And what gut would you have ****** in, you skinny biatch

Re: Dress regret

I definately have dress regret. My mom and I started dress shopping when my grandmother (mom's mom) was in the hospital dying. I was under a lot of stress and pressure to pick one so I did. When it came in I hated it but didn't have the heart to say anything because my mother was so excited. I also hate the way the shop did the alterations. I am 5'7 and the seamstress was about 4'. She just didn't do a great job.
My DH loved me in it and that is all that matters.
