Bonnie - BM dresses

I have never seen taffeta in person but it looks like raw silk on the computer screen. Maybe you can go that route for a less expensive BM dress?

I know this is a long BM dress and you want tea length but I think this pic shows what I mean:

It's a Bill Levkoff so I can't post a pic, sorry! Style 557 look at it in black!

When I went to look at BM dresses the taffeta dresses were more expensive. I was really surprised!

That's a very pretty dress! Tafetta is very light and unfortunately in person, not that appealing... it kind of looks like you just rolled out of bed, IMO. I like the satin look of this dress.

Ooh! I do see. Very nice!!!!! Has that shimmer effect.....LOVE that.

So wait, this is LESS expensive than that raw silk look....or more?

Re: Bonnie - BM dresses

that's what my mom said about taffeta being so wrinkly....

but I see all these Alfred Angelo ads about taffeta being luxurious so I thought she didn't know what she was talking about...

that stinks that it's wrinkly!!!

When i looked it was more expensive! It looks like it wrinkles very easily also. I liked it much better in the silk material.
