Ugh..still have so much trouble finding the 'dress'. I must have tried on over 50, and I need to order. Why is it taking me so long? Every dress I like always has something I dont. lol Love this dress below - just not sure about the mermaid aspect - what do you think?

I am also going to post different angles..

Re: What do you think of this dress..

Wow, I totally disagree with SO MANY of you! First of all I effing LOVE that dress. It is just GORGEOUS! And maybe some of you didn't try on a mermaid style but I think it can really help hide some unsightly things....

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this dress but please do try it on. If you like it, try on others in similar styles! if you LOVE IT, BUY IT! When it comes to liking a dress except for one thing - that one thing may be able to be altered or changed. Just keep that in mind. I would not touch this dress. I think it is beautiful just the way it is.

Thanks so much iamvocal72! I love that it is so different. Like everything else - some will love it and some will not - goes for every dress out there. It is just so hard picking out a dress and since I am a perfectionist, i cant find one!

Mermaid was never on my list, but i think it is very flattering on some body types. I have very small hipped and 5'7 - I might (if i stop night time binging! lol...) be able to pull it off!

OMG Go for it! you are the perfect body type for it! People are just hatin' cus they are too short and too hippy. It's all good skinny - go get that dress and take some pics of your 5'7' self for goodness sakes!

I freakin LOVE that dress, if I could've pulled off a mermaid, I def. would have!!

My friend wore a mermaid styles dress similiar to the one you posted for her wedding and it was absolutely STUNNING....here is a pic of her in it. Sometimes it's easier to visually see it on someone then trying on an oversized, wrong colored one at a salon..

HTH

Danielle! I think that dress would look great on you. You have the shape to pull of the mermaid style!! Does the dress have any straps?? or would you get strappless in this case and just wear the jacket?? I LOVE this one!!!!

Re: What do you think of this dress..

It is a beautiful dress!

But, I'm not crazy about the mermaid style. But that's just me. It's still gorgeous!

Re: What do you think of this dress..

The dress is magnificent! I love it, very different and unique!
I tried on many dresses, and everyone kept telling me 'When you try on THE ONE you'll know!' And they were right. I tried this one dress on and felt, 'I couldn't have found it this easily!' But I kept looking and I kept coming back to the original dress. Then I tried on some more and found another ONE. Then I tried on both for my mom and FMIL and the orig was it, I put on the veil and just knew, this was the picture of me I wanted BIlly to see. Don't feel pressure, it'll happen!!!
