Surprised there's not a thread on this already...

Thoughts?

I think the back of the dress is beautiful but the front is far too big, makes her look frumpy (and she is anything but). Still, gorgeous woman

Wouldn't be surprised though if a mini Murray is en route!

I think she looked a bit like a big puff ball. Blush

Not really what I expected. But she is a stunning woman regardless.

MrsUrquhart · 11/04/2015 20:35

Agree - there was a bit too much puffy material around the bust which made her look a bit bigger than she is. She looked lovely anyway though.

I think she looked beautiful. Thought there was pregnancy potential too.

Partyringer · 11/04/2015 20:36

Beautiful dreamy and she's pregnant. Telling ye.

LadyStark · 11/04/2015 20:37

I like the dress but it does seem to be drowning her. She's so beautiful though, she'd look great in anything.

I loved the sleeves but they would have looked better with less puff.

Agree straps WITH the puff!

I thought pregnant to start with, but I now think the dress was just too big for her around the chest - not cut to her shape at all.

calzone · 11/04/2015 20:38

I loved the sleeves and back of the dress.

The neckline and bodice were awful though.

She has such a slim body, it made her look bigger and the front swamped her.

Think she should have worn her hair up as well to show off the back of the dress.

However, she looked so happy, the sun shone and I am surprised I am so opinionated on this subject!!!!!

MissBattleaxe · 11/04/2015 20:40

I think she looked beautiful and she gets 10/10 for not going down the strapless route.

All strapless dresses look the same to me. I'll be glad when that trend's over.

It made her boobs look saggy! I was genuinely surprised she went for something quite so unflattering as she normally (as far as I've seen) gets it right.

I should add, as I feel like a bit of a bitch now Blush , she looked fantastically happy and that's all that really matters.

Ubik1 · 11/04/2015 20:47

I thought she looked beautiful. And they looked so happy.

CoperCabana · 11/04/2015 20:48

Yeah interested to see this. I don't like her or Andy Murray that much, but have to admit she is absolutely gorgeous and was expecting her to look beautiful. So was surprised to see that she did look a bit saggy and the dress seemed too big. They both look over the moon though and I do feel very happy for them.

I didn't like the depth of the "belt" at the front; it made her look short-waisted when added to the nature of the bodice but she looked very happy & that's what counts!

BallroomWithNoBalls · 11/04/2015 20:52

I love the dress! Think the fitted A-line strapless look is so overdone and where Kate Middleton took it away from that with the lace and sleeves, this is so fresh and lovely. I don't think it makes her look slim exactly but she looks beautiful, feminine and pretty and curvy and I think it's a really lovely dress. The cinched waist is perfect.

I always want to get married all over again when I see dresses I like Smile

championnibbler · 11/04/2015 20:52

its horrid.
i expected something more stylish.

cuntyMcCunterson · 11/04/2015 20:52

They both looked ridiculously happy-nice change to see him smile.
Agree the dress seemed like an odd choice. Looks to me like its the top and bottom from different dresses!
However what about the bridesmaids? Really not keen on their dresses at all.

bridgetsmummy · 11/04/2015 20:53

The dress was beautiful, she looked stunning and he looked very handsome. When they came out of the cathedral they looked so happy.
I'm a massive Andy fan Smile

LemonBreeland · 11/04/2015 20:53

I do think the dress didn't do her justice particularly. I thought it was a bit old for her.

herecomesthsun · 11/04/2015 20:54

aaaaah

GrouchyKiwi · 11/04/2015 20:54

It looked lovely in motion, not so great in stills.

But her and Andy's happiness was utterly beautiful.
