there are so many dresses i love that have pick ups but when i try them on i feel like i get lost in them. i think maybe because im short?

what are your opinions on pick ups? do you like them or no? do you think you will get a dress with them or more traditional?

5'4', not that tall

that makes me feel better because i know pick ups don't look that great on short girls and i am 5'2 and your dress is a pick up right

Yeah it has pick ups, pretty much all the dresses that i tried on had pick ups because thats the style that i really liked and none of them looked bad, it was just waiting to get 'the dress' feeling

yeah i hope i get that feeling about the maggie dress i love

I hope so for you

I actually went specifically to try on the monalisa maggie, but didn't like it as much as the mori lee dress i picked

i do have a list of other maggie dresses to try on to so i won't be making the trip for nothing and they are not all pick ups so hopefully one of them will be the one

When someone I know got married in 07 she wore a pickup...She is 5'2' and barely 95 pounds and the dress honestly didnt look that bad on her! Yes tke skirt kinda swallowed her whole, but the way the top was it made the dress look better...

I have seen some pick ups that look like a cupcake i feel like this maggie i like is not overly poofy and i might be able to pull it off - i will get me some 5 inchers and i am no where near 95 pounds

i am short too and i feel like you but just picture it when it's fitted to your body!!! it's hard to pick a dress overall i don't think i could ever choose a dress they are too big but i just don't like the big poofy ones it makes me look like a wedding cake because i am soo short lol GOOD LUCK PICKING YOUR DRESS

Re: How Do You Feel About Pick Ups?

I think they look so nice on some people. For me, though I'm not a fan, but I'm short too. I have to say though that everyone I liked them on was pretty tall.
