Dress Opinions?

Jess, on August 10, 2020 at 8:45 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 28
What do you guys think? I’m pretty sure this is my dress but I am kind of nervous to say yes. I tried on only 5 or 6 dresses and this was the second one. I was so close to the bridal moment with tears but I started laughing at my mom instead because she was crying 😂

Should I keep looking to make sure or should I stop so I don’t get confused?

    It looks pretty. Maybe slightly tight around your upper thighs though.

    Think about how you felt in it. Did you see yourself as a bride, and getting married to your SO is THAT dress? I had a very intense bridal moment lol but not everyone does. I would say try a few more and see how you feel. If you keep thinking about that dress, and compare all the others to it, then you know. If you find something else, then that’s good too! At least then you’ve tried options and won’t wonder if it was the one, or if you missed out. The dress looks gorgeous on you!

    It looks really pretty! You can always look around some more and go back to that dress to compare the two

    You look amazing in that dress. I love the back. What makes you feel unsure? To me, u know the dress that feels right to you. You dont have to try on every dress to know. I tried on 5 dresses and went with the very 1st one - which the bridal shop brought in during a trunk sale at my request. There was 1 other dress i really considered.


    Can you move ok in it? Is it too heavy? Are you feeling weird about anything in particular?

    When I tried on the dress I felt beautiful, I felt sexy, and I absolutely saw myself as a bride which is everything you’re supposed to feel! But now when I look at these pictures, I focus on my upper thighs which is a part of my body I’m self conscious about. I’m going back to the boutique next week to try it on again and I guess I’ll see how I feel back in it.

    Did you have any runner up dresses?


    I know nothing anyone can say will make u feel better but your thighs look great in that dress lol. Not fat, atleast in the pic. Id only worry about your ability to walk/dance in something tight

    I think the dress looks lovely on you. Gonna be honest. Based on what you said you even seem a little hesitant by saying I think this is my dress. I would keep shopping a bit more just to make sure for your peace of mind you know you tried on various. I say this because dress regret is real. I fell in love with a dress and then shortly after it came in I started regretting it ASAP because I had not done what I had planned which was try on a variety of dresses at different stores. I ended up exchanging it and now I have the most perfect dress for me. Worse case if you know that is the dress for you then go back for it. I think it looks lovely on you but from personal experience be sure.

    I think this dress is absolutely stunning on you. But if you aren't sure then you should keep looking.

    Since you’re clipped in to make it fit you, I think part of the way it looks on your thighs is due to that- and your thighs don’t look fat but I get it we all have body parts that we are self conscious about!
    If you keep looking and find something else you love, maybe this wasn’t the one, but you look seriously stunning in it. I’d try it on again and see if they can clip it a little differently, maybe looser on the bottom clip. It should hug your curves, but you also have to walk down the aisle 😉!

    Wow, it’s gorgeous. But it sounds like you only went to one shop so go to another. You’ll either find The One, or realize you already did. 😍

    It's an absolutely beautiful dress and looks great on you. But honestly, if you aren't 100% in love with the dress and skeptical at all, I'd keep looking.

    That is beautiful. If you love it and your mom loves it, go for it!

    Don't get caught up in finding the PERFECT dress - it may not exist or be 10x your budget (in which case its not perfect). If you are hesitating because there is something specifically throwing you off about this dress that's one thing, but if you aren't sure just because you think you are supposed to try on more dresses before deciding, don't let that hold you back.
