Can I have your opinions on these potential dresses-to-get-married-in, please?

[explodingkittens]

I'm 5'7", a size 12 but planning to knock a few more pounds off, fairly straight-up-and-down. I want a simple shape and sleeves of some sort but (to my surprise) have also fallen in love with sequinny/beady/embroidered-type frocks whilst searching.

What do you think? And has anyone ever ordered from Adrienna Papell for the US to the UK?

[Paintbox]

All gorgeous!

[explodingkittens]

No 4 and 5

I quite fancy a dark blue or green...what do you think? I tend to wear darker colours usually.

[Gingernut81]

Am with Paintbox, they're all gorgeous!

[Coldhandscoldheart]

I like the first & second. No help on any thing else though sorry. I think they all look as if they'd be a good shape for you.

[honeylou42]

All beautiful but I think 1,2 and 4 are the best

[Coldhandscoldheart]

4&5 are lovely too!

[BusterGonad]

No4 for me.

[ChrissyHynde]

2 or 4. In fact 4 with 2's neckline

[TheLuminaries]

I like number 4 but they are all lovely.

[OhHolyFuck]

Love 4!

[Maverick66]

No 2 for me.
Love neckline very flattering.
Love the colour
Love style and shape of it

[Knittedfrog]

Number 2. Followed be 2 and 4

[explodingkittens]

They really are, aren't they? I should probably say, I'm 43 if that would influence your choice at all

I love all of them. Have also been looking at Needle and Thread but the dresses I really live from them are all backless and I think that might be a step too far (especially in Glasgow in the autumn!)

[MagnumAddict]

1&2 are my faves but all really lovely

[explodingkittens]

Love not live!

I think no 4 might be my fave too, just about, but I love the dark blue too...

[kel1493]

I love the style and shape of number 2. I love number 5, except the neckline. But all lovely

[MistyMinge]

Number 1 & 3 are my favourites, but they're all lovely. I'd steer clear of the darker colours, think the lighter ones are more weddingy, and will look better to look back on in the future. Lighter colours nicer for a summer wedding too.

[2017SoFarSoGood]

they are all beautiful! I love Adrienna Papell dresses - they are even more lovely than the pictures show. They wear well too, and are well made. I'm sure you shall be fine with having them shipped!

[explodingkittens]

this would be my absolute dream dress if it had a back to it!

[LadyPenelopeCantDance]

They are lovely!

If it helps OP, Monsoon and Phase Eight do very similar styles of dress for around £500. You could order from there to see how they fit before paying US postage prices.

[explodingkittens]

Oh that's really good to know, 2017, thank you!

[IfYouGoDownToTheWoodsToday]

What kind of "feel" will the wedding have?

1,2 and 4 are beautiful and romantic.

3 and 5 are also beautiful and more sophisticated.

[marmitecheesetoast]

All gorgeous but 2 and 4 are my favourites!

[WanderingNotLost]

All beautiful! I can also recommend Frock and Frill for embellished dresses too.

[IfYouGoDownToTheWoodsToday]

I'm not sure if you know but Needle and Thread also have quite a lot of dresses on TheOutnet.com. They are usually heavily discounted.
