Simple Crepe Gown

mainewed, on October 16, 2017 at 1:40 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 22

I've started my dress search and was surprised that I liked some very simple ivory crepe gowns after seeking out mostly full lace designs. I'm curious if anyone has worn a simple dress like this and has photos to share? I am curious how the dresses come across in photos and how they look with full wedding hair/makeup as well as a formal bridal party. I'm not finding the designer's stock photos to be helpful and was not allowed to take photos in many of the bridal salons. One dress I tried was Lela Rose "The Cafe" (stock photo attached).

    I tried on a simple Justin Alexander gown and a haley paige- very similar- beautiful and stunning- I loved them tremendously.

    I say do it.

    Stunning dresses! Go with what makes you feel beautiful and bridal. Before I went wedding dress shopping, I wanted no lace or bling or poof because I love how beautiful and classy "simple" dresses looked. I ended up with a lacy, poofy dress. You never know what style is right for you until you try dresses on. Go with your gut.

    Absolutely gorgeous! I love simple dresses like that. They are so stunning and elegant, and you have a blank canvas for jewelry hair and makeup. Definitely go for it!

    Love it! I have a similar style dress by Casablanca. I was also surprised by loving something so simple. I do have a pretty ornate belt on mine.

    My dress has a lace bodice and subtle detailing on the train but I'm in love with the simple, sleek mikado skirt. Morilee has some unadorned mikado gowns, and I think Essense of Australia does too. You can find more modern, crepe gowns at BHLDN and Lovely Bridal (they have a few locations around the country, assuming you're in the US).

    If you Google "minimalist wedding", "minimalist bridal/wedding party" you'll find images of real people with simple gowns like the one I attached.

    I love that. I would totally go for something like that if I had the body for it.

    Thanks everyone for the feedback. I just want to clarify, this is a stock photo and is not me in the image!
