I have two dress possibilities from David's Bridal. I won a dress in their Instagram contest for frontline workers. Part of my problem in choosing is that I'm in love with a designer dress that (Thanks to COVID) I can no longer afford. Dress option #1 is a sheath shape that I had to size up 3 sizes...
I have two dress possibilities from David's Bridal. I won a dress in their Instagram contest for frontline workers. Part of my problem in choosing is that I'm in love with a designer dress that (Thanks to COVID) I can no longer afford.


Dress option #1 is a sheath shape that I had to size up 3 sizes in order to hide my mommy tummy, and I will meed need a lot of alterations to the top to fit correctly. Its very heavy. The train literally scrapes the ground and drags and rolls like dead weight- no flowiness at all. I love the sparkly fabric and its the closest fabric to the dress I'm in love with.
The second option is a geometric shape- I'd get it in Solid Ivory instead of the contrasting colors. It has a little sparkle. But- I don't like the print. I think it looks like a giraffe print. I think the shape of the dress is much more flattering, but it doesn't sparkle and the pattern isn't my style. It feels plain on me.cfb_1422931.jpg

Also, the bodice isnt very structured, so it moves oddly and kind of wrinkles when you move. Its much lighter than option #1, and the train is much more moveable.
Dress #3 is the Ashley and Justin dress I'm head over heels for, but will never be able to afford cfb_1422919.jpg

    I would go with the second one if they have it in white or a lighter color
