Dress shopping

So I KNOW I said last week I wasnt ready to go dress shopping yet but something came over me last minute on monday and I called and made an appointment to 'peek' at dresses lol. I found one that love, but was just going to keep looking to make sure it was 'the one' because it was nothing like what I envisioned myself in. But I just got a call to make me aware that the designer is discontinuing a bunch of her bridal gowns and BM dresses on the 30th. So what do you ladies think?

PS Excuse the messiness that is me I went right after work!

Re: Dress shopping

Thankyou!!! I start to second guess it then i look at the pics and i fall in love again lol...still going to try others on though. Part of me feels its meant to be though because the sample fit PERFECTLY they said all I will need is a bustle if i get the right shoes.

Question though... Do you ladies think its not poofy enough? I remember reading something about the ones you try on are a little flattened from all the wear and when you order them they are a better shaped is that true?

ETA: there is a piece of fabric missing from the back behind the lace up so I wont look so naked from behind lol

Re: Dress shopping

It's stunning on you!

I have to say that I think some of us pick dresses that we never would have picked in the first place. I envisioned a plain mermaid style dress and went with a fully beaded semi aline gown. What looks good on you may surprise you!

Re: Dress shopping

I think this dress is absolutely gorgeous on you. Its so romantic.
I will advise, however, that if you're second guessing or feel the need to keep looking you may want to continue your search.
When I knew my dress was 'the one' I canceled appointments I had at 2 other places b/c I didn't even want to look at another dress. Food for thought.
IMO I would call the dress manufacturer and see when it's being discontinued and how long you can get it..
