right, please tell me why strapless dresses are the norm for weddings? I think they often look like a bridesmaid has wrapped a lilac towel around herself after a shower.

just coz its Friday night, I've had a g&t and this BUGS me. Brides usually look lovely because the dress, makeup and jewellery all works, but most bridesmaids do not suit strapless dresses.

when i got married i was skinny but with boobs (so bony shoulders, collarbone, & elbows) so I defo wanted sleeves.apart from the fact it was winter!

when i went shopping for a dress most shops just turned me away at the door as they only sold strapless dresses

i also had to get it made

T'was ivory silk crepe, bias cut with v neck and back and fishtail skirt
