Personally I love it, and I'm normally as boring as it gets clothing wise!

Mybabystolemysanity · 06/02/2018 21:47

Beautiful! I can see it for an informal country/barn setting. I love pansies!

Mischa123 · 06/02/2018 21:48

I think it would be lovely in the right setting and not with those shoes!

AnneLovesGilbert · 06/02/2018 21:49

Stunning. I love it. Get it!

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 06/02/2018 21:51

It’s a stunning dress; if that’s your thing, go for it.

I’m very traditional and only like white for wedding dresses really, but if you’re not, the only thing that matters is that you like it!

melissasummerfield · 06/02/2018 21:51

Love it!

Dermymc · 06/02/2018 21:52

Gorgeous

ziggy1986 · 06/02/2018 22:00

This is encouraging!

I agree the shoes are terrible.

Wedding going to be informal (although not a barn or country wedding)

Wow!!!!!!

RavenLG · 06/02/2018 22:03

It looks like a child drew on it (imo) but if you like it go for it! Life is too short to have a boring wedding dress and it’s certainly not that. I’m sure you could rock it with the right shoes of course!

Bigfatchips · 06/02/2018 22:06

I don't like those funny little capped sleeves. I don't think it's good enough to get married in, sorry.

DailyMailDontStealMyThread · 06/02/2018 22:07

It’s lively

DailyMailDontStealMyThread · 06/02/2018 22:08

Lovely not lively

pieceofpurplesky · 06/02/2018 22:08

I also don't like the sleeves. It doesn't look like a £1,000 dress. If I saw someone it it I would think it was lovely but not as a wedding dress reminds me of M and S

flowersWB · 06/02/2018 22:08

It's a beautiful dress but I never understand the shape. What body shape do they look good on? Because I don't think the model looks good in it!

ziggy1986 · 06/02/2018 22:09

I quite like the sleeves. I want a sleeve I am nearly 40 🙈

I loved it until I flicked through and saw it on the model. The shape looks strange. That said depends how you carry it off. Love the embroidery, but the sleeves and hip area look strange on the model.

beachbodyunready · 06/02/2018 22:13

It says it's sky blue but to me it looks more like grey/white so I'd be concerned about what the colour looks like in real life.
I also agree that it's a strange shape and don't think it's flattering to the model's figure.

StinkyMcgrinky · 06/02/2018 22:14

Beautiful! I love it and definitely think it is 'special' enough for a wedding dress.

But, I do tend to think that 'normal' wedding dresses are quiet dull and boring...

ziggy1986 · 06/02/2018 22:14

Hmm, it’s almost an even split of love it vs hate it!

IWouldLikeToKnow · 06/02/2018 22:17

It's gorgeous. But I do agree it looks a little odd on the model. But the dress is fab and if it looks good on you,, definitely go for it x

IWouldLikeToKnow · 06/02/2018 22:17

And those shoes are desperate with it.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 06/02/2018 22:26

I think the sleeves look great (always hated the strapless trend) and I actually like it on the model.

It definitely looks like it’s worth £1000. I say go for it, OP Smile

AnElderlyLadyOfMediumHeight · 06/02/2018 22:33

Not my thing at all. I really don't think the flowers etc look nice - not quite 'child drew on it' territory but makes me think a bit of 90s curtains. My opinion obv doesn't matter, but you should perhaps consider how you will feel if you look back in 5/10 years and your tastes have changed - think there's a fairly high likelihood of that happening with this sort of dress.

ICanStandtheHeat · 06/02/2018 22:35

Gosh truly awful imo. Looks childlike and cheap. But that's what I would think if I was flicking through and saw it, if I turned up at your wedding and you were wearing this I would it would be beautiful
