Oh most definitely, and thank you so much!

I have to show you this other dress I just found. It is by Maggie Sottero and it is called the Amara Royale. You can get it in this gorgeous ivory color... or go with RED and white. I would never add color to a dress, but is GORGEOUS!



and in red...



That red is NOT my cup of tea, but Joshie loves it!


I like that one a lot. My dress however was a corset back with a sweetheart neckline, rouching all down the bodice, in ivory and with a trumpet/mermaid skirt (though I did not have a train) so I may be somewhat biased - it did look very different from that one though all the same! \:\)

I love that Maggie Sottero, and I have heard so many wonderful reviews on her dresses, especially on the website. I know they won't put anything negative on their own site, but there are excellent reviews there. I love that one in ivory, because of the way the skirt ends, and has that romantic fabric that I like so much.

=)

The more I see that dress, the more I like it... and I don't want a red dress... but as I have spoken with Emily, if I weren't as conservative, and more of wanting to make a statement... that would be THE dress...

Favs:
1. Kenneth Pool Degas (i love a nice structured material)
2. Justina McCaffrey (dream)
3. Piccione 404 (this silhouette is very flattering)

My least favs are:
1. Monique Lhuillier (top reminds me of Madonna's corset days. i was an 80's kid that grew up on the beginnings of Mtv)
2. Pronovias Marabu (too busy, I think the bride should be the center of attention. this dress has a life of it's own)
3. Piccione 410 (only because you better be built like a brick out-house for this one!)

As usual, Wench and I are in agreement; definately the second Kenneth Pool!

The
iccione 410 is my least favorite. To me, it looks too much like a "Saloon Dress" of the Old Westerns.

love, love, love pintucking, so i love the maggie s. and the Piccione 404. the second kenneth pool is interesting, but i'd have to see the front of it first.

dress shopping was my favorite thing when i was planning my wedding.

I really want to like the Degas, but I can't help but think it looks like it's a dress with one of those tummy cincher things on the outside, just all blinged up. hehe
