Fingers crossed, Diana! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739627 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 02:29:03 +0000 Jaime 739627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is a beautiful dress and I will look forward to seeing you in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739625 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 02:24:39 +0000 sarah 739625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OOOH, I can't wait! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739606 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 02:02:09 +0000 crazyone 739606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a lovely dress, but I'm concerned that if it's not a sheath made for pears, it may not fit well (though I guess if you size up and alter it, that would be less of a problem). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739593 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 01:21:03 +0000 JAileen 739593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope it works for you - it's a really lovely dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739526 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 23:34:04 +0000 Transcona Shannon 739526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yippeee!!! I can hardly wait to see all of these pretty wedding dresses on you Diana. I'll bet the tough part is going to be deciding because I suspect you're going to look beautiful in ALL of them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739519 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 23:31:18 +0000 Diana 739519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, don't worry, ladies, I will show you all of these and there will be plenty of pictures! (Unless I can't get them on...) </p> <p>Sylvie, I love that I can shop for dresses online. I can't afford the fancy bridal salons (plus they intimidate me) and I am scared to death of places like David's Bridal, LOL. The only thing about shopping online is that you have to be able to deal with the temporary outlay of cash to try the dresses on. </p> <p>I actually am really hoping I can find a dress from Nordie's. I've been checking their site a lot lately because things pop back all the time as they get returned (like this dress today). The unlimited return window makes me soooo happy and so much less nervous. Most other places have 60 days return, which is still pretty decent.</p> <p>ETA: Una, I miss the old Filene's Basement! I actually loved the crazy feel of it. Usually, really disorganized stores like that overwhelm me, but something about the space itself (big, cavernous) seemed to negate its claustrophobic nature. When they reopened briefly on Boylston St, it was super cramped and not the same at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739470 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 23:00:45 +0000 Anonymous 739470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That one is so simple, yet really special at the same time. Can't wait to see it on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739461 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 22:54:08 +0000 Caro in Oz 739461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes &amp; take lots of photos.......I wish we had your return policies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739365 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 21:10:51 +0000 Suz 739365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't wait to see these dresses on you, Diana! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739360 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 21:04:42 +0000 Parsley 739360@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous dress!<br /> In my limited experience of buying my own wedding dress and my daughter's, trying on a bunch of dresses is the only way to find the right one, unless you're extraordinarily lucky.</p> <p>But ooh, what fun it will be for all of us to live vicariously in helping you with your search!<br /> It can be a YLF group project to help you identify the perfect dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739357 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 21:00:28 +0000 Anonymous 739357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We can't wait to see you modeling these dresses! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739351 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:57:17 +0000 Anonymous 739351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739343 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:53:52 +0000 Sylvie 739343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! So glad you were able to order both dresses to try out! This seems like a much easier way to shop for wedding dresses - shop online, try on at home, return. I'm envious. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739340 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:51:46 +0000 citygirldc 739340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't wait to see you try on those dresses. You better take photos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739315 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:31:06 +0000 catgirl 739315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Running of the brides was like a horror movie. At least to me. The real Filene's Basement had a bit of a world-ending feel, with people scrabbling in bins over shoes and scarves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739312 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:28:56 +0000 Diana 739312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Update: Apparently I have good shopping karma today! The Tadashi did indeed appear on the Neiman Marcus site in a size 8, so I have ordered that as well. Fingers crossed.</p> <p>Ouch. My wallet hurts. </p> <p>Mochi, running of the brides was a filene's basement thing, so I'm not sure they're doing it any more now that FB is gone. Apparently it was crazy. I have a friend who actually got her dress there several years ago though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739300 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:22:08 +0000 Mochi 739300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Diana, isn't there some annual Running of the Brides thing in Boston? (Huge wedding dress sale.) Have you ever considered it? Not that I'd blame you if the thought was scary!</p> <p>ETA: that was in August, so scratch that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739298 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:20:38 +0000 biscuitsmom 739298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad you're giving it a try! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739293 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:18:47 +0000 catgirl 739293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I think it's good for us to see you in as many options as possible - at least we can narrow down what doesn't work and what you love! KWIM? Excited! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739290 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:16:23 +0000 Diana 739290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow you guys are fast. Thanks for the reassurance. I ordered it!<br /> Since it's a sheath, there is every chance it will not zip up but it's worth a try! </p> <p>BTW, I also ordered that inexpensive Adrianna Papell from Macy's yesterday. Have not yet pulled the trigger on Tadashi (still hoping it will show up in my size on NM, because Tadashi Shoji website's return policy is annoying) or Ann Taylor (waiting for 40% code, although there is 30% right now...)</p> <p>Although, LOL my horoscope today said that I might make a rare shopping mistake today! Good thing I don't believe in that stuff. ;)</p> <p>ETA: I think it's pretty easy to have a tailor add a piece in the neckline if it is too low, so long as they can find a decently matching fabric. It does have built in padded cups so I may not even need a bra. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739287 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:16:05 +0000 pil 739287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739286 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:14:25 +0000 texstyle 739286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous - go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739285 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:14:07 +0000 Mochi 739285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's lovely. I'm sure the neckline issue (if there is any) can easily be dealt with. </p> <p>We're here to hold your hand every step of the way, Diana. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739282 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:11:21 +0000 Janet 739282@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful!

I advocate a buy-to-try from Nordies anytime. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739276 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:08:02 +0000 citygirldc 739276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say go for it. Try it on and see how you feel. if not, then return. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739274 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:07:33 +0000 catgirl 739274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, it's beautiful. Simple yet ornate somehow. The only question I have is with the neckline - it's fairly plunging, and I haven't seen you in anything like that. Worth a try! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/urgent-should-i-order-this-wedding-dress#post-739273 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 20:07:22 +0000 Angie 739273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes!
