Which dress for wedding next week

Hi all!

I'm a regular but I've name changed as I don't want my picture to out me. Just wondering which dress your collective wisdom thinks is best for a wedding next week. It's in quite a fancy looking hotel, starts at 3pm. I have red court shoes for the bike print one and greyish stilettos for the flowery one. I'm not sure if the bikes are not really formal enough...any opinions? Thanks in advance!

I'd def go with the flowers, dressier and more weddingy. Both look lovely on you though.

Patriciathestripper1 · 19/07/2017 21:57

The one with the red bow ! Really shows your stunning figure.
The other dress is nice but more afternoon tea /picnic.

Floral. The pleats on the skirt are lovely. I bet it moves well

WanderingTrolley1 · 19/07/2017 21:59

Definitely the flowers!

PickledLilly · 19/07/2017 22:00

Flowers!

I prefer the floral one but they are both lovely.

WhichDressWitchDress · 19/07/2017 22:02

Ooh that was quick! Thank you all. I'll probably go with flowers then! But it's good to know the other looks okay too. I'll find an occasion for it :-).

Floral.

TerfwithaNerf · 19/07/2017 22:02

Floral!

It fits you better and is just nicer and dressier than the first one.

Redken24 · 19/07/2017 22:03

Floral much nicer

tangledup123 · 19/07/2017 22:05

They're both lovely, but I'd go for the floral one.

OMFL · 19/07/2017 22:05

The minty grey one. Its lovely. I would like 1 too!

WhichDressWitchDress · 19/07/2017 22:08

Wow, almost unanimous! Thank you all! And thanks Patricia, that's a very kind comment, but the dresses really do hide a lot!!

flowers

olympicsrock · 19/07/2017 22:12

Depends on the wedding and your personality. I like the bike print one best. Both look great.

Chillyegg · 19/07/2017 22:14

Floral

BackforGood · 19/07/2017 22:19

I agree with most - prefer the floral, but either would do.

Is there a reason why this is the 3rd "Which of these 2 dresses for a wedding next week" threads running tonight ? Confused

WhichDressWitchDress · 19/07/2017 22:29

Oh, sorry I haven't seen the other two. Lots of weddings I guess :-)

Blogwoman · 19/07/2017 22:36

Against the trend here - the bike one, really lovely & different! Where's it from, by the way?

WhichDressWitchDress · 19/07/2017 22:40

Thanks blogwoman. Umm...well I'm a bit embarrassed, but I made the bike one myself. It's the first dress I've made for me, which is partly why the fit could be improved. I was wondering whether it was good enough to wear for the wedding, as I've worn the floral before (but totally different people so that wouldn't matter so much). But I thing going with consensus I'll stick in my comfort zone and wear the floral. I will wear the bikes some time though!

No, don't apologise Grin

I was actually wondering how bad it would be for me to send one of the other people asking the question to look at this thread, as both your dresses are nice and entirely suitable for a wedding Smile

PigletWasPoohsFriend · 19/07/2017 22:44

Flowers x

WhichDressWitchDress · 19/07/2017 22:47

Haha, thank you BackforGood, I do love a posh do where I can wear a nice frock! Don't get nearly enough opportunities these days.
