Another "Which Dress?" please for autumn wedding.

Family wedding in October has been scaled down to a registry office. No longer bridesmaid so need something to wear. Did a big Reiss order - only one worth thinking about.

Please can I have opinions on all of these - any any good? Or should I keep looking? Oh, and goes without saying please excuse hair - need a cut though thank heavens I no longer dye it

Dress 1 Pink - saw on another poster's thread. DD (14yo) thinks it is horrible and not my style, makes me look old and not right for an October wedding. I rather liked it..... I can see it would be a shock for DD as I am not normally a pattern person (think the grey curls + pattern = too much).

Dress 2 Teal/Green Reiss - in the sale. DD likes it. I feel rather lovely in it. But am not sure if I like it cos it makes me look slim. Clueless as to what shoes I would wear with it (hate heels).

Dress 3 - My old Boden summer party staple. Not sure if right for an Oct wedding though.

Help oh wise-ones please.

  1. You look fantastic in it, suits your colouring and does not swamp your figure.
kenandbarbie · 03/07/2020 17:34

Oh I see you hate heels. In that case how about those flat shoes from kurt Geiger with the diamanté band?

The green one, honestly by country mile! You look fab in it. I think your dd is right and the first one ages you, also the colour does nothing for you. 3rd is ok but nothing special. The green is really striking and flattering on you

Dress 2

Love Dress 3 but it is too summery.

Dress 2 is lovely and the most weddingy. I love you in dress 3 but not for an Oct wedding.

TeaAndHobnob · 03/07/2020 17:40

Dress 2 is a lovely colour and would be perfect for autumn. I'm not sure though about the fit around your chest, it looks as though the fabric is being pulled and wrinkling a bit. Could you try a size bigger?

BanningTheWordNaice · 03/07/2020 17:41

Love number 2, you have a fab figure :)

  1. Looks amazing, perfect fit, colour looks great with your hair.
GameSetMatch · 03/07/2020 17:49

Teal/green dress for sure, it looks really lovely on you! Definitely no5 the pink number!

timetest · 03/07/2020 17:50

Dress 2 looks great.

Onekidnoclue · 03/07/2020 17:51

Dress two. You look lovely. I’d try some mega slut boots underneath. Thigh high in suede or gloss.

I think both the colour and style of dress 3 look great on you. I don't think it at all washes you out (as a PP said). I prefer the colour of 3 on you to number 2. They all look good though!

LaceyBetty · 03/07/2020 17:56

Dress 2 is lovely.

The green/teal one is lovely, very classy and suits you.

The pink one seems a bit shapeless in comparison.

I like all three tbh bit note for no2 Teal for this occasion. Plus it looks like a dress you'd get some wear out of.

I wouldn't know what colour accessories either.

Is it early or late autumn that might make quite a difference
