Absolutely gorgeous dress!

Ginfordinner · 19/12/2020 14:43

I quite like it, but dislike the off the shoulder straps. I prefer proper shoulder straps or sleeves, but that is just my personal opinion.

HollyandIvyandallthingsYule · 19/12/2020 14:43

Oh it’s beautiful!😍😍😍

Littlemissnutcracker · 19/12/2020 14:44

Love it. You look beautiful in it and it is different and quirky

Neolara · 19/12/2020 14:44

It's lovely and you look fabulous in it.

Plonque · 19/12/2020 14:46

I love it! I would absolutely wear that, it's right up my street.
When I got married and tried a couple of non traditional options some of my people didn't like them either, and were vocal about it! Ignore.

It’s beautiful OP! You look fabulous!

Dozer · 19/12/2020 14:47

Like it a lot, really suits you!

Iamthewombat · 19/12/2020 14:48

Why does your sister hate it?

Fressia123 · 19/12/2020 14:48

No idea she hasn't even said why! I really dislike sparkle / sequin and it was really hard to find the one!

I agree. I love the dress, but not these off the shoulder straps. They look like they've slipped off your shoulders. Either have a proper strap, or go strapless, or have sleeves. These are none of the above!
Fressia123 · 19/12/2020 14:51

The straps are removable anyways!

It's a nice dress.

Being brutal it does kind of look like your boobs are about to fall out of it. I'd get the fall down sleeves turned into actual sleeves.

katienana · 19/12/2020 14:52

You look really happy in it so its definitely the one!

mummabubs · 19/12/2020 14:54

Stunning! (but then I paid a seamstress to add off the shoulder straps to mine so I'm biased!) I really like the dress OP. Some of my family and in-laws weren't as sold on mine but at the end of the day it's your dress for you, so only wear what you want to!

MrsMoastyToasty · 19/12/2020 14:56

I like the shape of it and the applique. However I don't like the drooping sleeves and it looks slightly too short from the neckline to the waistband.

ageingdisgracefully · 19/12/2020 15:00

I'm not keen on the straps either. I
They seem to be visually fighting with the veil somehow.... Smile.

I think strapless would be better. Otherwise it's fab.

Fressia123 · 19/12/2020 15:04

O didn't take any photos of it without straps

Oh gosh op it’s really beautiful. Love the collie and you look so happy Smile

HelebethH · 19/12/2020 15:05

If your sister or anyone else hates it that's there problem. It is not as if she has to wear it! It's your day and you should wear what makes you happy.

Kenworthington · 19/12/2020 15:05

Ffs COLOUR, not collie. What a random autocorrect

DreamingInColours · 19/12/2020 15:05

It's stunning!

Groovinpeanut · 19/12/2020 15:06

It's gorgeous OP, you look absolutely stunning in it. You positively 'shine'
Just a word to the wise I had the same off shoulder straps on mine, it was one of the features of it I loved. It was great trying it on, short fittings etc.. On the actual day though worn for longer they were so annoying. Just something to bear in mind. Everyone is different though you may love them
Ignore your Sister! Smile

Tistheseason17 · 19/12/2020 15:07

Gorgeous!

And if you feel special in it - then it IS the one!!

Beautiful3 · 19/12/2020 15:09

I love it but not keen on the str, go either strapless or get proper straps fitted.
