Re: Colors

orange is nice like a burnt orange or a rust color though is pretty in the fall

Edit to add: i wouldn't use a shiny fabric though

Re: Colors

My concern in using that color would be how it would look on my girls' skin tones... It would be terrible on my pale skin....

Re: Colors

Re: Colors

Nice color, I like that burnt orange color. But it does not look good on these dresses. I dont like the dress material and its throwing me off a bit. YOu may want to find another pic. Do you like this color , its a bit darker

Re: Colors

i agree with going with a darker shade or orange, the shiny material may not look right on the girls

Re: Colors

I have to agree with everyone else, the shiny fabric doesn't seem to way to go, at least not with that color.

Re: Colors

I love orange!!!!!! - it is may favorite color - but it is really hard to wear - I think if you went with a more burnt orange you would have more luck matching your girls skintones

Re: Colors

I love the burnt orange color in general However, i think iridescent material tends to highlight body flaws so the girls might not be as comfortable in that as opposed to a matte fabric (like the pic up above)

Re: Colors

I think the material is a little too shiny. I wore Burnt Orange for my sister's wedding last fall.

It was an alfred angelo 6226.
to be honest I didn't like when it first came it but looked really nice all together. It was tea length and chiffon on the bottom so it wasn't an overwhelming amount of material.
