Do you like this wedding dress?

And do you think it would have that heart stopping simplicity which I see in it, anyway, in real life? It would just be for a small register office winter wedding.

That’s lovely

theotherfossilsister · 15/05/2020 21:06

thank you @BikeRunSki I love it, but scared it won't translate to real life. I wish I could see a photo of the back.

Very retro. I can see it with a white pill box hat - think Jackie O, when she was still a Kennedy!

thenightsky · 15/05/2020 21:08

Its hard to tell from the photo. Is it long or midi? Can you return it easily?

Yearcat13 · 15/05/2020 21:08

Beautiful. Simple elegant.

MondeoFan · 15/05/2020 21:08

I like it

Zisforstripyoss · 15/05/2020 21:08

That is very nice, you could get some amazing flowers and a funky headband to go with it.

stopandListen · 15/05/2020 21:10

It looks like a nurses uniform from decades ago - sorry but it's not particularly nice

RJnomore1 · 15/05/2020 21:12

It’s lovely. It’s £90 with code NEW and la redoute were always good for returns.

I’d chance ordering it. You don’t even need to pay anything up front if you open an account and if you return it it’s only about £5 postage you’re down.

OhCaptain · 15/05/2020 21:13

I think it would have that ethereal simplicity if you had a very particular body type. And it would depend on how you accessorise.

I don’t immediately think “wedding dress” but that doesn’t sound like what you want anyway!

It’s lovely and you’re the one who will be wearing it so if you love it then go for it!

MamaGee09 · 15/05/2020 21:14

I’m not a fan of the long sleeves, sorry.

Bertucci · 15/05/2020 21:17

OK I guess, if you're going for a postulant nun vibe.

But very, very drab indeed.

SpeedofaSloth · 15/05/2020 21:19

I like it.

JollyAndBright · 15/05/2020 21:20

I love that dress!

RandomMess · 15/05/2020 21:21

I think worth ordering and trying on will either look stunning or not work.

Wouldn't work for my body shape!

rottiemum88 · 15/05/2020 21:22

Hate it

GoldenZigZag · 15/05/2020 21:22

It makes me think holy communion, not beautiful sophisticated bride but if you like it that's all that matters Flowers

Serg · 15/05/2020 21:23

It’s nice but what’s the back like?

Voice0fReason · 15/05/2020 21:26

The photo really isn't very flattering.
Maybe it's better in real life or dressed up a little but I don't like it.

Notonthestairs · 15/05/2020 21:27

It's a bit nun like and definitely not my cup of tea. But it needs a woman inside of it to bring it to life. I'm sure it could be beautiful (caveat - you'd need fabulous hair - long or short).

Otterseatpuffinsdontthey · 15/05/2020 21:29

Sorry - it's also a "no" from me. Too plain, too simple - don't actually like anything about it. But it's really what you like that matters Smile

changechange · 15/05/2020 21:30

I love it

Echobelly · 15/05/2020 21:30

I think it could look lovely and strikingly simple, you'd have to have quite a well proportioned figure to wear it I'd image, but it's nicely different from the norm.

katieak · 15/05/2020 21:31

Think this would work really well on a quirky girl with the right accessories. With plain white shoes and not a lot else I think a bit meh. Order it and try it?

lockdownstress · 15/05/2020 21:32

Personally I hate it. Reminds me of Megan markle and she didn’t look that amazing in hers.
