I also went to my first dress appointment where I tried on some other, more structured dresses to see if I would like the look of them more and feel comfortable.
I tried on a few dresses (pics attached) some of which I liked, but didn’t feel like I was ready to pick one.
Then I found a slip dress that was pretty similar to the one I loved, so I went to try it on at my local grace loves lace showroom. The appointment was SO much more helpful than my previous one, and I love that they take way more measurements and actually make the dress to your measurements so it’s a much closer fit than standard made to size dresses. I really liked the dress, and my mom liked it and thought I should buy it. I wish that I had waited and taken some time to think about it, because I’m so worried I may not have made the right choice now. I know the dress will look good, and would plan to wear it with the organza wrap, but I’m worried it looks too much like a nightgown, and that with my small chest and more pear shaped hips it’s not as flattering as the more fitted structured styles I had tried on.
I can still cancel the order for a fee. Does anyone have any honest advise to offer? The slip dress I tried was a bit too big in the top; so would be a bit more fitted there than in the photos, and less long on my actual dress. It also wouldn’t have the lace detail.
