Can't decide on my dress, need help

Chloe, on December 21, 2021 at 11:13 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 11
I'm having my dress custom made (yay Etsy you lifesaver) and my seamstress has sent me pictures with two options for the skirt: with a tulle overlay or without one. I need to decide which one I want and I'm leaning towards the tulle overlay, but I also sort of like the shiny cleaner satin look. Any opinions?
The decolette looks funny btw, but it's just because it's been pinned down. And the sleeves will be long.Can't decide on my dress, need help 1

    I agree, I really like the tulle overlay skirt! I think it makes the dress feel like a cohesive piece, whereas the shiny satin skirt divides it and makes it feel like 2 separate thoughts. Also, I can’t help but think of a nightgown when I look at the plain satin skirt.

    I think the tulle overlay looks more bridal. Without I think it looks like a nice evening gown (which is fine if that’s the look you’re going for).

    I agree with this! I like the tulle overlay on that dress, I think it makes it look just a little more bridal. But like Cassidy said, it depends on the look you're going for. Is it possible for the tulle overlay to be made to be removable, so that you can decide day-of which style you want to go with?

    I'm already having a removable underskirt, so adding that would probably be an overkill and impractical. But the longer I look at the pictures the more convinced I am - team tulle ftw.

    That's a tough choice!! I like both options, but I'm also leaning towards the tulle overlay!

    If you could do something removable like Lisa's suggestion that would be perfect! 🙌

    I think I agree with the others. It looks more cohesive and bridal with the tulle!
