Which dress for an autumn wedding?

[Indisdress]

My friend is getting married in October. I thought I’d settled on a dress, thanks to you lot, but now I’ve seen another I quite like. So, opinions please on which of these two? Is the lacy part under the boobs of number two acceptable??

The v pattern of the red one emphasises the models tummy. I'd imagine the effect would be 10 fold on a non model.

I vote the floral dress.

As a dress, I like the red one better. But I'm not sure it's very weddingy. Also what Silver said.

I like the red, but often bridesmaids are in red for autumn weddings so there's a risk it may be too similar. I don't know if that's really a problem but may be worth considering.

My friend once went to a wedding where the bridesmaids were in the EXACT dress she was in- a Ted Baker from the high street. It was a bit awks.

I much prefer the red, it's lovely.

That’s a good point @MoltonSilver Not sure i have the willpower to get the belly under such control!

@HelloBrass I think I should be able to find out the colour. I think I might have been told already, not sure though!

I really like the red too. Not even sure I’d suit the colour, it’s not one I normally wear.

I much prefer the floral. The red is too mother of the bride/Phase Eight

What kind of wedding is it? Country house/hotel? City hall? Church?

I'd go with the red one. Autumn may be a lil chilly so long sleeves will keep you warm (coming from someone who is always cold)

It’s a hotel.

And I’m always cold too!

What's wrong with phase eight?

I like the red one but I’d have the same concerns about the shape round the tummy.

What colours do you usually wear?

I'd go for long sleeves for an autumn wedding- so red gets my vote!

I'm going to one at end of October and have bought this-www.lkbennett.com/product/CDLINNEASILKPrintCream~Linnea-Cream-Silk-Dress-Cream

I don't think I could bring myself to buy anything from a company called 'Little Mistress'. Would probably go for Plan C - whatever that is.

Floral one

What is your colouring? I like the red dress but it would be much more showy (lace panel wise) on a lighter skinned person, a bit much for a wedding.

The red one looks like a maternity dress with that bizarre shaped panel over the stomach. Don’t do it unless you want the waiters to skip you over for booze and everyone to congratulate you.

The first dress is lovely!

Weird stomach bit of the red dress rules it out.
