Which dress would you pick and why

My Bridesmaid dresses will be champagne. I went with two of my BMs yesterday and they loved this dress:

I love this dress along with the majority of my BMs. (although not all have tried it on)

The two Bms that love the first dress think the sleeves of the second one might be annoying, because they will keep falling down, and that it might not be flattering to the arms of those with bigger arms.

I say there are ways around the sleeves being annoying (for example stick on velcro or double stick tape for the inside of the sleeves).

My BMs are a true variety of sizes and shape (short, tall, voluptuous, not voluptuous, heavier, skinnier etc . . .)

Can you please tell vote for 1, 2, or neither and explain why you voted as you did? Thanks Girls!!!!!

bri,
i like #2 better. i dont like the neckline on the first one....plus i think its too trendy. i think the 2nd one is more 'classic,' and more young looking. definitly #2!

I like #2.

I don't like the neck of #1. I don't think that top would look good on all different shapes and sizes.

#2, and i think it is much more flattering for all of us who don't have good figures, lol

I agree. #2 is such a more flattering look and it gives a waistline for those who dont have it naturally

I like dress #2.

If any of your ladies have big boobies, you should stay away from the high neckline bc they tend to accentuate the bust area.

My girls considered #1 too but I thought it looked too Jackie O for my taste (I've got a Maggie Sottero dress, so I didn't think it coordinated well). #2 would probably be a better choice.

I like one but it's based on personal choice, I don't like the sytle of 2, but again JMO, I would have BM's try on number 2 and see which one looks better on all since they are different sizes.

Re: Which dress would you pick and why

I like #2 better, I think that it would look better on all figures.

Re: Which dress would you pick and why

I love #2, that is actually the dress I was going to pick for my girls!! More than likely we will be going with a very similar strapless version, also by Bill Levkoff. I love love the corset style, it is so pretty.

Re: Which dress would you pick and why

I pick #2, cause thats the one my girls are using. Also, I personally think that it will flatter all body types, since its two pieces. Good luck.

Re: Which dress would you pick and why

I like them both but I am not too crazy about the first, it seems to conservative and it might not look great on everyone. Those tops can make some look very flat chested. I like #2 better, I like the sleeves and the corset look. My BMS wore a two piece dress with cap sleeves and I think it looked great on all their different body shapes.

Re: Which dress would you pick and why

i love #1. it looks fabulous on, well it did on my girls,and it will probably be the one that i am going to get. i am not crazy about the 2nd one. i think that the arms could be annoying especially if people are short (like me) and will always have to reach up to dance. the back of the first dress is really pretty too.
