Hi! I'm getting married in Sept of 2027 and we just got engaged a few weeks ago so I'm very early in planning (although we did book our venue!). This is a second marriage for me and my first was back in 2010. I remember loving so many wedding dresses and having a hard time choosing, but this time I am finding that the current styles are just not my taste at all!

Back then, Alfred Angelo was a major designer but they have since gone out of business. OF COURSE when I look up old AA dresses I love so many of them, and I think it's because those all tended to have a structured skirt - the look today seems very loose and flowy, if that makes sense?

Here are a few examples of the styles I loved (I just googled old AA dresses haha) - any suggestions for where to find new dresses similar to this, as I don't particularly want a used dress. Is it just a matter of adding tulle or underskirts...?

Here is the newer style that I don't care for but am seeing EVERYWHERE (and I think I would love it if the skirt was more full/structured):

You can search Alfred Angelo gowns and see if there are any unworn gowns. You also might find a seamstress/tailor who can look at certain gowns and help determine if they can help get that look you want. It does seem like you can get the look you want by adding an underskirt or tulle. It seems like you will start with a low or drop-waist style. Remember also that the pictures of gowns are designed to be more appealing without telling you the way they prepare for the photos.
