"sexy" wedding dresses

A couple more I like

FH thinks this is inappropriate. I can understand his POV

I really love this one

Skin does not equal sexy. You can show all the skin in the world and still not be sexy- sexy comes from within and if you feel sexy, you can make a trash bag look good!

@beutivant I'm sorry you think all of my posts are troll attempts. If my life and thoughts are too unconventional for you to believe they can be real, then it is what it is. I hope you're having a good day.

Im not confident enough to pull those dresses! my dress has an open back, but its just a simple sheath lace dress- if it was up to me I would do a running skirt and a cute tank top

@kira you're right. I'm glad you felt like a million bucks in it. That's the goal.

@catlady I'm actually making my own dress, but I'll definitely check them out for inspiration. Thank you!

This is the back of my dress (my shoulders look a little awkward because they pinned it in the front to give me an idea of what it will look like). It also has a semi-sheer little v-neck. My Mom wanted a dress that was tighter than this one with a lower back and front lol, but I felt this was sexy enough for the wedding. I felt great in it and that's what's important in the end.

Any of the dresses you posted @Chivy are beautiful, I especially like the first one! The lace on the second one is beautiful, but I'm self-conscious about having my stomach showing so I probably wouldn't wear that personally.

Do you have photos of you in the style dress that you want? I showed FH photos of me in dresses to get his opinion on them, but didn't tell him which one I picked. Maybe you could try that to get a feel of what he thinks is too much?

I think the venue also has to be taken into consideration to some extent. Is the ceremony in a conservative church? Because they may not even allow you to wear a dress like that. Things like that.

What a ridiculous and insulting thing to say Kristin. The ceremony is only the 'worst' part of the ceremony when the couple gets an inexperienced, shitty, "relative" officiant who can't put together four words, never mind 20 minutes.

Just to remind you? It's the reason for the party.

SMH.

Oh, and congrats on four stars in two days OP. I think that's some kind of record.

I definitely second Berta! FH wants to have a vow renewal just the two of us in about 10 yrs on a beach, I told him I definitely want to try for a Berta for that! They're stunning!

All great points @FMW and the back of your dress is very pretty!

Celia you keep mentioning that. Idk what they represent, nor do I care... Not sure why you repeatedly feel it worth mentioning?

@jj I love the back. Not much of a fan of the front.

JJ that dress is beautiful. Chivy I really think you should rethink your whole plan. If you have never sewed in your life, a bridal gown is not the way to go.

1) The perfect response. Exactly what I thought you would say.

2) I AM having a lovely day. Thank you. Just made myself some French Toast.

3) OF COURSE you are making your dress. And I am sure it will look just like all your inspo pics. (I KNEW you had more up your sleeve.) You are truly in your own league and I fucking love it.

Thank you for your concern Svetlana, I've been sewing for over 10 years.

Thanks @Chivy! But I agree with PP, if you're not a professional seamstress, and I'd even say a seamstress with experience doing bridal, I'd advise against making your own dress. If cost is the concern, then off the rack is an option! If you want something custom, then I'd hire someone with bridal experience to make you the dress. ETA: I saw your comment that you've been sewing for a long time. I'm still curious if you have experience with gowns?

@beutivant thanks.
