I liked it but thought it looked very wintery. Would’ve been lovely as a winter dress, I imagine she was sweaty though!!

Whenaretheholidaysover · 01/09/2019 09:12

I don’t like the bridesmaids dresses at all. Very plain and ill-fitting.

linentowel · 01/09/2019 09:15

I really like it. Took a few looks but it’s very her.

ZenNudist · 01/09/2019 09:16

Not keen. Also her lips are too big for her face and she looks a bit orange.

Julus63 · 01/09/2019 09:16

It really doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. We are all individual with our own personal style and Ellie looks lovely.

Tally2chat · 01/09/2019 09:20

I totally agree. I really wanted to like it but it’s awful. The frilly net thing looks like it’s choking her. At least if that was cut off would have been million times better. The red of the dress is ok. But just really dull.

The beading is ok. But I can’t see anything “wow” if honest. Am all for simple clean lines al la Megan. But this was something from the 70s and not in a good way.

Curlyeyelash · 01/09/2019 09:55

Doesn't look tailored to her body properly. Also, shoulders and sleeves would have looked better in lace as its too covering! Never thought I'd say that as wedding dresses need to have modesty but this takes the biscuit.

Looks like something a nun would wear. She looks happy and beautiful though. Dress 1/5

shiveringtimber · 01/09/2019 10:02

It doesn't fit properly; too big and it does nothing for her. Little House on the Prairie - all she needs is a poke bonnet to match.

Missymare · 01/09/2019 10:07

Think it would have been better with a different neckline. I love the star beading on the dress.

beanaseireann · 01/09/2019 10:12

I'm wondering who went bridal dress "shopping" with her and said " Yes that's the one- you look amazing in it."
Or was with her when the designer sketched it.
Each to their own but I don't like it.

CapedCrusaderOnAHighHorse · 01/09/2019 10:14

It's absolutely stunning.

NoTheresa · 01/09/2019 10:15

I actually like the bridesmaids’ dresses and the plain hair too. Sadly although the bridal dress in not a strapless, body hugger which always looks terrible, I have no positive feelings about it. This pop singer person clearly thinks she is now a faux aristocrat.

NoTheresa · 01/09/2019 10:17

I imagine she was sweaty though!!

She always looks a bit bleurgh and oily.

MistyMinge2 · 01/09/2019 10:25

I really didn't like it. The frilly collar reminds me of an altar boy. I think it looked out of place for this time of year too. If it had been mid winter it might have not looked so odd.

Cheerfullygo4 · 01/09/2019 10:38

As long as she likes it. It's her day and I'm sure she feels beautiful.

SirVixofVixHall · 01/09/2019 10:42

It looks so beautiful in that picture of them kissing. I love the way it could be from almost any period in the last 500 years, it looks timeless and graceful. The fabric is stunning.
I think it is the loveliest wedding dress I have seen in years.

FredaFox · 01/09/2019 10:50

Definitely agree Katie Perry is pregnant and hiding it in the coat

This x 10.

SirVix you put in words what I was trying to say.

dudsville · 01/09/2019 12:13

I don't like the dress BUT I love that her wedding isn't about her breasts and decollatage, I love that her arms aren't stuffed like sausages into the tightest space she could possibly fit into. She looks happy.

spongemumnudiepants · 01/09/2019 12:27

It's awful. Very plain and she is completely covered up. Quite Victorian IMO

Shockers · 01/09/2019 12:56

Why do people dislike her so much? I don’t know anything about her, other than that she’s a singer. I honestly can’t see the orangeness, or the over the top fakery that people have talked about on this thread, in those photos- I think she looks beautiful and natural. Yes, her hair is dyed, but it’s not awful. Has she actually had her lips done, or are they just very full normally?

GlamGiraffe · 01/09/2019 13:18

I'm pretty sure she is Jewish.
But so is my DH and church happily offered to marry us. Our son was already christened there as I had wished, not being Jewish and they were used to seeing DH. It's a high Anglican church but they still volunteered the offer. It's not impossible for a jew to marry a Christian in a high CofE church.

SmudgeButt · 01/09/2019 13:20

I'm still trying to figure out why she's famous other than she's in a ridiculous shampoo ad. "I train my hair"!! How ludicrous.

She's young so she's good looking. I can't say any better than that.

TatianaLarina · 01/09/2019 13:22

Very plain and she is completely covered up.

Why is that a negative?
