Which one do you like better

Please keep in mind my bridal party ranges from a size 4 to a size 24

Re: Which one do you like better

hard to say, the second pic is tough to see based on how the model is sitting (why do they pose models in the stupidest positions??)

While i love #1, I have a feeling it would not be flattering on the larger sized girls in your WP, it looks a little form fitting .. so I'd vote for 2

I think they'd have to try them on to see which flatters the wide range of sizes best!

I prefer #2. I would feel like my butt would be too accentuated the way the bow is in #1...and that is an area that I certainly don't want to be accentuated-lol!

Re: Which one do you like better

yes #1 - I like the detail in the back.

Re: Which one do you like better

TBH: I think they look very similar and one might not look better on then the other.

Re: Which one do you like better

I like the back on #1, but like the other girls said, it probably won't be too flattering on the larger girls. If I were a size 24, I certainly wouldn't want that bow on my butt! The second one is nice too. Depending on the style (kinda hard to see), it may be more flattering.
Two nice choices though.

Re: Which one do you like better

I used to be a size 24, and honestly, I don't love either of these dresses. Sure they look great on the models, but they both look too fitted in the hips for my taste, and that goes for anyone, size 24 or size 2, I don't think anyone likes a dress that accentuates their hips.

Don't go with #1. One of my bridesmaids tried it on and she has tummy trouble and it looked horrible. She looked like a stuffed sausage (her words about herself, not mine)

#2 looks a little more forgiving.

Re: Which one do you like better

I love #1 it's beautiful.. I love the back..

Re: Which one do you like better

I love #1... but I think #2 would be better for the size range you are having.

Re: Which one do you like better

Although I like #1, I agree with the other ladies that it may not be flattering on everyone. So I say go with #2

Re: Which one do you like better

I think #2 would be better for all different sizes.

Re: Which one do you like better

#1 is the nicer dress, however considering the range in sizes of your bridesmaids, #2 may suit the larger girls better. Something about the bow on the butt that may not suit all sizes. JMO

#2 definately!?

Re: Which one do you like better

I have two other dresses in mind, plus one of the above. I figured out of three, they can vote which one they like, and I'll make my decision based on that. But I didnt want to give them too many choices either, because I'll be screwed if each girl picks one dress.

Here are the other two choices that I've decided on, both in a wine/burgandy color:

Re: Which one do you like better

I wouldn't go strapless - the bigger girls will probably have bigger chests and strapless makes them look like a uniboob (or so I'm told by my entire bridal party, all of whom are very well endowed. This is not something i know, UNFORTUNATELY, from personal experience).
