Great comments so far. I wanted to give more details on the ones that everyone like and even found more pictures. (If you click on these pics they get much bigger)
#32 has been the run away favorite so far. The dress is by Jim Hjelm
(Ivory Silk Organza trumpet gown, sleeveless Alencon lace empire bodice accented with Ivory satin ribbon, V-neckline, 2 tiered lace accented skirt, low open V-back, chapel train)
I still like the dress a lot, but after seeing the back I am worried that we may have some foundation garment challenges.
Price $3,000-#5,000 (yikes)
#3 is Anne Barge her La Fleur collection, but of course I can't find the dress on her site anymore
Price $3,000-$5,000(yikes, but I'm sure I can find a knockoff for cheaper)
#28 is Demetrios from the Ultra Sophisticates collection
(Sleeveless beaded V-neck tulle with empire bodice. Attached train.) There was only one additional picture of the dress
Price not given
#15 is Mori Lee by Madeline Gardner
(Delicate chiffon with lace. Lace appliqués decorate the sheer halter bodice and meets the center-shirred midriff. Corset tie-back on the A-line skirt with chapel length train. Available in 3 Lengths: 55", 58", 61" Colors Available: White/Silver, Ivory/Silver) Here is a picture of the front and a picture of the back.
Price $600 or less
#17 is from Eden Bridals
(Matte Luxury Crepe gown features a bodice of Lace and Beading. Open Lace and Beading embellish the empire waist and side slits on the front and back of the A-Line skirt. The back is open leading to a Chapel length Train.)
I found a picture of the detail and the back.
Price $600 or less
Wow the price for number 15 is amazing!! After seeing them both up close, I think #32 is my fav.... but wow - how gorgeous are all of these? I need to come with you to try some of these puppies on!
ReplyDeleteDid you decide on a wedding dress yet?! Wow, all the choices are beautiful. Have you tried any of them on or seen them in a store? A wedding dress is definitely something you can't really decide on until you try it on. I thought I wanted a sheath but when I went to a bridal store I fell in love with the first dress I tried on (mermaid style and all lacey). It was the perfect dress. You just never know until you try it on!
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried anything on yet. I'm actually waiting until Kate moves back to the bay area (April or so). I want to arrange a ladies outing and 3 out of 4 bridesmaids is pretty good. Of course coordinating everyone's schedules ought to be interesting.
ReplyDeleteThey're all absolutely beautiful; but I agree, you won't really know until you try a few on. Have you given any thought to the veil? The traditional pillbox or a big floppy hat? That might alter what you would consider for the dress also.
