Kind of fun that it's a 3D print and comes with a pair of 3D glasses. I was trying to figure out if it was floral or not. I decided not. It has some floral but also some talons in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1489206 Sat, 09 May 2015 00:42:00 +0000 frannieb 1489206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>loving the Rebecca M. dress </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1489147 Fri, 08 May 2015 22:58:45 +0000 donnat 1489147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You will look great in the reBecca minkoff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1489120 Fri, 08 May 2015 21:59:04 +0000 Greyscale 1489120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the Rebecca Minkoff dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1489099 Fri, 08 May 2015 20:42:08 +0000 AviaMariah 1489099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love the Halston but if she's going traditional it may be too much. &nbsp;The Rebecca M. really looks like an afternoon wedding dress. &nbsp;It also seems like it could be versatile for other occasions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1489097 Fri, 08 May 2015 20:40:29 +0000 Anonymous 1489097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Carmen Mark Valvo or the Valentino Red. They're both really pretty and then you'd have a beautiful dress "like that" hanging in your closet ready for future events.<br />They're both really nice Anna. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1489089 Fri, 08 May 2015 20:25:02 +0000 abc 1489089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see you in the very last one you linked to and it would look great w your skin tone and hair color. Good luck and keep us posted. How fun and I like the small wedding approach. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1489079 Fri, 08 May 2015 19:34:56 +0000 annagybe 1489079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, got the scoop from my friend. She is looking at tea-length dresses with some arm coverage, on the tradition size. Thank goodness not strapless. I feel those are overplayed in weddings and don't look good on a lot of people. Under $500. She is a size 16, so a bit trickier to find a dress.<br />I directed her to eshakti, because they customize, a lot for little money.<br />So that ixnays some maxis I was looking at. Full on spendy designer would be too much.<br />I sent her the pic of the second VW, she liked it.<br />BCBG dresses seem too cocktail or resort wedding. Also lots of white or white-ish dresses.<br />I found more options, that are cheaper<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.theoutnet.com/en-US/product/Iris-and-Ink/Holly-striped-satin-twill-dress/563457">http://www.theoutnet.com/en-US.....ess/563457</a><br />This I really like a lot, but may be too much<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/us/en/product/536072">http://www.net-a-porter.com/us/en/product/536072</a><br />This seems actually really spot on<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.rebeccaminkoff.com/lindley-dress">http://www.rebeccaminkoff.com/lindley-dress</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1489073 Fri, 08 May 2015 19:12:42 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1489073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Noooo.... I was typing too fast, hit something, and lost my earlier reply... here is the re-type....</p> <p>VW #1 is very you - cool, unusual, can stand on its own, and yet is enough of a blank canvas that you can wear it again and again, and accessorize it in any style direction you want, and it will look like a different dress every time. &nbsp; Not a one-hit wonder to hang, unworn, in a closet. &nbsp; This dress gets my vote, unless you already have a similar dress that serves the same, chameleon-function.</p> <p>I reallyreallyreallyreallyreally <u>love</u> the Stella McCartney! &nbsp; Can you justify the expense by wearing it to the opera as well? &nbsp; Holiday parties?</p> <p>I love the Raoul too, it just says 'summer' to me. &nbsp; How is August in your neck of the woods? &nbsp; Still warm enough to support this dress? &nbsp; It looks kind of thin.</p> <p>VW #2, I like this as well, but the neckline is kind of bland to me. &nbsp; But the waist and the skirt make up for it.</p> <p>I like the Kay Unger, but there seems to be something missing or lacking with it. &nbsp;It doesn't seem Anna-worthy. &nbsp; You set a high style bar, and I don't know if this dress quite meets it. &nbsp; I'd be curious to see it on you.</p> <p>The Cadeymint: &nbsp; I start out loving this dress, because the stripes are so lovely, and the colors, and I love the neckline and the bodice... then my eye gets pulled away, down to that hemline, and I feel all sad. &nbsp; The hemline upstages the rest of the dress, and it pulls my eye away from the model's face. &nbsp;IMO.</p> <p>Carmen Marc Valvo &amp; the RED Valentino, I feel are just 'meh'. &nbsp; Bridesmaid-y. &nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1488921 Fri, 08 May 2015 12:55:38 +0000 jackiec 1488921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun selections. I like the VWs for you a lot. I also absolutely love the first dress that Diana posted. Sounds like it will be a lovely, low-key wedding. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1488917 Fri, 08 May 2015 12:49:31 +0000 Jaime 1488917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I love either VW dress for you - you need to try on to choose. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1488840 Fri, 08 May 2015 08:07:12 +0000 approprio 1488840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an... eh... honour. Also liking the VW's. I've found her more fitted garments run a little small, so I vote for the drape dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1488811 Fri, 08 May 2015 05:38:02 +0000 rachylou 1488811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the Stella and the Raoul. The Valentino is probably the best choice tho - very cute and appropriate.</p> <p>What is the bride wearing? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor/page/2#post-1488719 Fri, 08 May 2015 02:17:35 +0000 Echo 1488719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure the strapless dress is too fancy, because while it is strapless the stripes make it seem less formal. Additionally, I don't find the Anthro dress to be too casual at all - not in comparison to the others. And those two are actually my favourites, but I'd lean more toward the Unger simply because the print on the Anthro might be too bold. The first VW dress could easily skew too casual IMO, but I like the second. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor#post-1488708 Fri, 08 May 2015 02:00:43 +0000 Ledonna N. 1488708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow some good choices I would love to Se the ones you like on I don't always go by the size on the tag. And what a honor to be asked. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor#post-1488702 Fri, 08 May 2015 01:51:22 +0000 Olivegreen 1488702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The second VW dress seems perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor#post-1488692 Fri, 08 May 2015 01:28:09 +0000 Style Fan 1488692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful dresses.&nbsp; The Stella McCartney dress is pretty amazing but is it a bit bold for the occasion.&nbsp; I like the second VW dress.</p> <p>I have thought of using the rent a dress service.&nbsp; I don't know anyone who has but it seems like a good idea.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor#post-1488676 Fri, 08 May 2015 01:06:09 +0000 DonnaF 1488676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both VW dresses for you; somehow I envision a solid dress for the occasion.&nbsp; Maybe because traditional bridesmaid dresses are solid?&nbsp; Mainly, I think those dresses would look great with a hat/fascinator or the like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor#post-1488672 Fri, 08 May 2015 01:01:51 +0000 SandyG 1488672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love VW but those don't seem like occasion dresses? Why don't you look into a vintage VW dress and see what's out there. How fun to have time to look and choose, lucky you!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor#post-1488671 Fri, 08 May 2015 01:00:39 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1488671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could see you in the striped Anthropologie one--I like the shaped hem, because it gives an eclectic twist to the classic style. The two Vivienne Westwood styles are more sophisticated and I think they'd look dynamite on you. Also the Topshop one that Diana found. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor#post-1488670 Fri, 08 May 2015 00:55:10 +0000 Tanya 1488670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I loc both VW dresses for you, with a slight preference for the second one.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor#post-1488668 Fri, 08 May 2015 00:52:40 +0000 Karie 1488668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think both VW dresses would work for you. I also like the Kay Unger a lot. You could always ask your friend if it would be too dressy. It's good that you're looking now and not waiting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor#post-1488667 Fri, 08 May 2015 00:47:00 +0000 donnat 1488667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could see you in either VW'S You could rock either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor#post-1488636 Thu, 07 May 2015 23:54:29 +0000 Caro in Oz 1488636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the first VW - her drapes are amazing imo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maid-of-honor#post-1488631 Thu, 07 May 2015 23:51:41 +0000 columbine(erin) 1488631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd vote for the second VW.
