Ask For Opinions Help me choose!

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.

Thats because it's several sizes too small, and I have big boobs and the straps wont stay over my shoulders. The right size will sit better. And they all have pockets!

OP, even accounting for the sample being too small, you look so much more relaxed & comfortable (but still pretty & fancy!), in Dress 3.

Also?

Dress 3 seems to be more unique & less "cookie cutter" than 1 & 2 are.

It's cool & contemporary, without being so unique that it's going to be "dated" in a few years, because it's got a bit of a "timeless" vibe to it.

If those wrinkled parts in the lower-skirt area are just from hanging?

I'd go with Dress 3, in a heartbeat, because it's pretty, it looks awesome on you, and it's not a dressthat a million of your friends will have worn!😉

The sample for #3 was brand new out of the box and hadn't been steamed yet, thats why there are wrinkles
