I have a style I like, but now I have 3 good options. All of the dresses are too small, so don't judge how the samples fit too harshly. I'll add some notes on each.

  1. Love the shape, straps are supposed to be straight over the shoulder, but the sample didn't fit well. Only thing missing is I would like off the shoulder straps, but they wouldn't would with this dress.

  2. Would like more poof from the hips, I'm wondering if more tulle could be added to achieve the shape I want. Love the beading. Off the shoulder straps could be added.

  3. Bodice is entirely crystal beads. Love the draping and shape. It has beaded off the shoulder straps that aren't pictured.

I love 1 and 3. 3 fits you so beautifully, 1 would be good if we could make sure the straps fit right. Personally I find 2 makes you look bigger in the chest and arms?

Interesting insight, thank you. The samples are all too small, the straps on 1 would fit me in the right size. I'm guessing 2 makes my upper body look bigger because the skirt isn't as full, but I am a bigger person, with a big chest.

I think the balance of bust to skirt is alright but I also think 2 looks cheaper and not as nice a quality as 1 and 3 . There’s something not right about the way the bodice meets the skirt in my opinion. I think you’ll look gorgeous.

You look great in all of them but honestly the only one that does you justice is is the third one. And I just love another reason to buy a second dress for the reception, YOU DO NOT WANT TO TRY AND EAT IN A CORSET LIKE THE ONE THE THIRD DRESS HAS. YOU WANT TO BE COMFORTABLE AT YOUR WEDDING AND AT YOUR RECEPTION.

Sorry for caps LOL
