I need to pick a dress for my brothers wedding.
I’m not sure which I prefer.

Which one do you think I look better in?
Thank you.

LOVE the red dress.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 29/07/2018 16:32

And it doesn't make you look 'bigger than you are' at all - you look like a tiny lady in a beautiful, full dress.

Red!

Moonflower12 · 29/07/2018 16:44

The red with the nude shoes- really suits you.

plusonefail · 29/07/2018 16:50

The second one by far, although honestly I think the arm bits (word fail) aren’t very flattering on you on either dress. You need wider, sturdier straps and definitely not the halter neck. (I have a similarly shaped upper body to you and avoid both of those bodice styles because I know they don’t do me any favours).

plusonefail · 29/07/2018 16:51

Oh, have just seen the red one - that’s much better. It looks lovely.

lukewarmcoffee · 29/07/2018 16:53

Definitely the red one!! You have a great figure but neither of the blue dresses are cut right for you. 1st one the high neckline is wrong for you, 2nd one the straps aren't quite right and the skirt comes out too wide on your hips. The red one is great on you, very flattering

SaturdaySauv · 29/07/2018 16:58

Red dress with nude shoes but I agree that it’s not perfect. I’d check out Karen Millen and Whistles. I think this would really suit your gorgeous figure.

Hope you're keeping a tally OP Grin Think the red has it though. It's gorgeous.

Karcheer · 29/07/2018 17:26

Okey dokey!
I have been and swapped the red shoes for the nude suede ones.

Looks like the red dress is the favourite 🙂

I need a bag now... anyone seen a nice one to go with the dress/shoes?

Can we see them?

Catchuptv · 29/07/2018 18:04

Definitely the first one - I wonder if you have some navy shoes though?

Catchuptv · 29/07/2018 18:06

Sorry didn't see the red one - which is absolutely stunning - have a great time

Do you live near any large dept store? Lots offer a personal stylist service free, you book an hour & tell them what you want & your budget then sit drinking sparkling water while they bring you all the clothes & advise on fit, shoes, accessories etc.

It’s very hard being a petite size 8, nothing really fits right !

ILikeyourHairyHands · 29/07/2018 18:18

Yay! Red with nude. Good call OP.

kenandbarbie · 29/07/2018 18:18

I like the red dress better too op. Good choice you'll look fab!!

Noviceoftheweek · 29/07/2018 18:22

The red dress is just gorgeous on you. Beautiful lady Smile

LoveProsecco · 29/07/2018 18:22

Just came back for an update & I like dress 3 as much as I like dress number 1. Nude shoes are a winner with the red dress. Good luck finding a nude bag. I'm sure I saw a few nice nude bags in Debenhams last week.

Have a great time!

HollyBollyBooBoo · 29/07/2018 18:36

2nd one is more weddingy.

You look great in both!

alternativeusername · 29/07/2018 18:46

Late to the party - def 2nd navy dress - top is way more flattering round the arms / shoulder/ bust. I think that the angle the photo is taken from shortens your legs a little - I bet irl your legs are a bit more visible (they're very lovely, should show them off)

slithytove · 29/07/2018 19:10

Where did you find the shoes, I want some
