HELP ME PICK A WEDDING DRESS !

Okay ladies, can you give me your feedback on these gowns. I am going to Kleinfeld's and RK Bridal next week. We are getting married on the beach and our theme is Beach Bling. Think sun, sand and swarvorski crystals. I am 6ft tall a D cup and a size 16 so your honest opinions on which dresses would look best on me would be great ;)

Christina Wu

Casablanca

Maggie Sottero

Winnice Couture

Winnie Couture

Jim Hjelm Couture

I like the third one from the bottom the winnie couture. I'm around your size (Except shorter) and when I went shopping and found that the empire waist (I think that's what it is called) is very sliming

I like the first and second ones from the top - they're beautiful! I also like the third one up from the bottom - that's very pretty too

Re: HELP ME PICK A DRESS TOO!

I would steer clear of the maggie sottero with the pink bow if you have hips...it is NOT figure friendly! I really like the casablanca and the empire one.

It all depends on your body shape for the mermaid/trumpet/fit and flare gowns.

i never even got to try any on cause i couldn't get em over my hips (It figures all the ones I liked were sample size 8...I am NOT a bridal 8 by a long shot!)

My favorite would be the first one.

Re: HELP ME PICK A DRESS TOO!

My favorite one and the one I think would be most flattering would be 2. When the fabric pulls to the side like that it is very slimming on the waistline (my dress has that also and I love it!)

Re: HELP ME PICK A WEDDING DRESS !

Thanks ladies, after some feedback from YOU guys and some of my chat buddies on the knot.com, and after seeing PICS of some of the dresses on real brides, I have been able to narrow my choices down tremendously. Thanks for your help

Re: HELP ME PICK A WEDDING DRESS !

i think #2 would be the most flattering. the top seems like it gives a lot of support. The rousching in the middle i think looks great on all figures. good luck!
