Woohoo!! Found 2 dresses, cant decide

Lucky me!!! Went dress shopping yesterday for the first time and BAM!!! I found not only 1 but 2 dresses I am absolutely crazy about. Now for your opinion: 1 or 2?

I voteed #1 because is made by demetrios and I have just always loved that dress. I think it complements the female form very well Good Luck

I went to the trunk show at Macys yesterday. They are both made by demetrios.

Maybe you can try a Pro/Con list on both dresses....that's what I did when I had to decide between 2 gowns.

Re: Woohoo!! Found 2 dresses, cant decide

even better I still stick with #1, i really like that one It is verrrry diva-esque, which I am assuming is the look you are going for, judging by your name

I was thinking the same thing...

Tricky? I dont understand....how do you get in the dress? it has a side zipper on the strapless side. You just put your arm in on the right side and your in there like swimwear. At the shoulder the rhinestone strap breaks away to 3 straps that cross the back. I at first went in to try on the first one, but my MOH pushed me to try the second one on and I LOVED it. Now Im not sure which one I want.

#1 is definitely different and diva-esque. The asymmetrical thing is also kind of trendy, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
#2 is more timeless and elegant, I think.

Re: Woohoo!! Found 2 dresses, cant decide

I prefer the style of #2.

Re: Woohoo!! Found 2 dresses, cant decide

Tough choice. I'm not a big fan of asymmetrical anything so I voted for #2 but then again, #1 seems a little more diva-esque to me.... but #1 is definitely diva too!!

I THINK....(If I understood it right) that what Marcella meant by tricky, is that it's a hard dress to flatter certain body-types....
That's why she asked what you looked like...
It's not an easy dress to 'pull off'....

Re: Woohoo!! Found 2 dresses, cant decide

I voted for #2 because although #1 is diva-esque, #2 has diva flair to it as well. Also, I am not sure how happy you will be with your choice years from now. Will your wedding picture be hidden in the back of the closet the same way people hide their 80's pics today?

Oh, I'm sorry sweet pea.. what I meant is that that kind of dress isn't always flattering on certain body types, nor is it easy to alter..

Re: Woohoo!! Found 2 dresses, cant decide

oohhhhhhhh!!!! I was pleasantly surprised with the 1st dress that it fit every curve without showing any bumps or lumps if ya know what I mean. It was a thick dress so it's forgiving. On the other hand, the second dress kinda showed a little too much. If you notice on the side of the dress, its see through. I wouldnt want 'the twins' to be giving a free show!!

#1, #2 looks like its missing something

Re: Woohoo!! Found 2 dresses, cant decide

If you have a slim figure, go with #1 most definitely!

If you want more of a dress to hide some of areas your not too happy with, go with #2..

Good Luck

Re: Woohoo!! Found 2 dresses, cant decide

They are both gorgeous and slinky and sexy.... but if we're going for total DIVA , then I vote for #1. #2 is awfully pretty, but I agree.. its almost like something is missing ..

You're gonna be a DIVA no matter what!!!
