Struggling to find a.dress. 2nd marriage. I'm mid 40's have 4 kids size 18-20.

I have given up believing what sales assistants say as they would tell you u look stunning in a bin bag!.

This is the first dress I saw which actually fit.

Please give me honest opinions.

Thanks xx

No, I think you look lovely.

ClandestineAdulation · 05/09/2018 18:08

I think it sounds lovely. Do you feel comfortable and confident in it?

ClandestineAdulation · 05/09/2018 18:08

... clearly I meant it looks lovely, not sounds lovely!

I think it looks really really lovely!

I think the sleeves would look better if they were more fitted rather than flared, but that's just personal preference.

You look lovely!

Hellywelly10 · 05/09/2018 18:09

I like it alot op.

Namethecat · 05/09/2018 18:09

It's a beautiful dress and fits wonderfully. In my opinion age does not come into it - buy it !

pinkcardi · 05/09/2018 18:11

It's a beautiful dress and you look stunning in it.

I particularly like the neckline and sleeves, combined with the lace at the bottom. Very sophisticated and it is a flattering fit.

However, it doesn't matter if we like it, how do you feel when you wear it?

Watto1 · 05/09/2018 18:11

It's beautiful OP. I love the lace.

sprinkleofsunshine · 05/09/2018 18:12

Looks really lovely. Congratulations x

blinkywinky · 05/09/2018 18:12

Oh god thank you. I'm so relieved. I loved it and it nearly made me cry but I felt a dick standing on a block in the middle of a room lol.

Ok I'm gonna buy it. The sleeves are actually on a wee jacket. The dress looks like this.

You look really lovely - it's a great dress because it's pretty, classy, glam and most importantly, looks like it suits you!

Sparklyfee · 05/09/2018 18:16

Looks lovely. Is that Wed2B? Please check it over fully. My friend had 3 ripped or damaged dresses from them and they sold one in the knowledge buttons were missing.

MyWorstSelf · 05/09/2018 18:18

It's beautiful and you look amazing in it. Smile

Grasslands · 05/09/2018 18:21

No, it fits yes but it’s certainly not a mature style for a mature bride.
Is part of the reason you like it because it’s the first one that fit?

Rebecca36 · 05/09/2018 18:26

It's very nice and if you are comfortable with it, that's fine. It looks extremely ordinary and somewhat dated to me. The strapless/bare shoulder type wedding dress has gone out of fashion, replaced by much nicer dresses imo. I'm sure you will find one to fit you if you look long and hard enough. You're not enormous!

ChanandlerBongsNeighbour · 05/09/2018 18:30

You look really beautiful in it!!

LeroyJenkins · 05/09/2018 18:32

That looks really nice and suits your build

Twartyvajitus · 05/09/2018 18:42

You look beautiful 👰

TroubledLichen · 05/09/2018 18:43

Great dress and it really suits you!

laceygo · 05/09/2018 18:43

It's beautiful and you look gorgeous in it Thanks

HerculesTheBerkules · 05/09/2018 18:44

It's gorgeous, really classic.

LorelaiRoryEmily · 05/09/2018 18:45

It’s beautiful and you look really lovely in it

ISeeTheLight · 05/09/2018 18:46

It's a gorgeous dress OP and you look beautiful in it. Very classy and elegant.

ShirleyPhallus · 05/09/2018 18:47

It looks extremely ordinary and somewhat dated

What crap

TheBeatGoesOnandOn · 05/09/2018 18:49

I like it.

I'd prefer it without the sleeves but other than that it's lovely on you :)
