The wedding is early evening at a outdoor venue in California. It will be dressy casual. I don't want to wear a long dress, but I don't like dresses above the knee. I have short light brown hair and green eyes. </p> <p>I really appreciate all the help! What a great forum! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-mom-dress-for-tall-apple#post-669799 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 11:35:12 +0000 Ornella 669799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello,<br /> Our delicious apple Natalie (goldenpig) had recently posted a lot of blue dresses for reviews as she prepares for her sister's wedding... check her thread, you might find some inspiration there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-mom-dress-for-tall-apple#post-669796 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 11:33:09 +0000 transition 669796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi, fellow tall apple mom! I wear a 12/14 too.</p> <p>I have to agree with wrap dresses and dresses with "ruching" and gathers at the sides, like many that velvety chocolate found for you. But in my experience you really have to try them on. . . just this weekend I found what I expected to be a wonderful dress that did nothing for me, and a stretchier dress in a medium that I thought would just be tight in all the wrong places but ended up coming home with me!</p> <p>I agree with Shannon. . . if you can post more details about the formality of the dress you need, you'll get a lot of help here! We've had several members even post photos of themselves wearing several options to make the best choice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-mom-dress-for-tall-apple#post-669678 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 04:28:02 +0000 velvetychocolate 669678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about these:</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/js-boutique-grecian-beaded-jersey-gown/3327235?origin=category&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=7210" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/js.....tback=7210</a> (pic #1)</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/tadashi-shoji-ruched-jersey-dress/3282993?origin=category&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=7280" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/ta.....tback=7280</a> (pic #2)</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/adrianna-papell-lace-sheath-dress/3136589?origin=related-3136589-60147025-0-1" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ad.....147025-0-1</a> (pic #3) (note: also available in navy in size 14 on Nordstrom's site)</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/adrianna-papell-matte-jersey-taffeta-dress/3070916?origin=category&#038;fashionColor=ECLIPSE&#038;resultback=8925" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/ad.....tback=8925</a> (pic #4)</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/eliza-j-boatneck-draped-ruffle-front-jersey-gown/3284504?origin=category&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=3920" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/el.....tback=3920</a> (pic #5)</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/tadashi-shoji-lace-chiffon-gown/3105854?origin=keywordsearch&#038;fashionColor=Opal+Gray&#038;resultback=175" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ta.....ltback=175</a> (pic #6)</p> <p><a href="http://www1.macys.com/shop/product/adrianna-papell-dress-tiered-evening-dress?ID=487889&#038;CategoryID=5449&#038;LinkType=#fn=SPECIAL_OCCASIONS%3DGuest%20of%20Wedding%26sp%3D1%26spc%3D240%26ruleId%3D19%26slotId%3D23" rel="nofollow">http://www1.macys.com/shop/pro.....lotId%3D23</a> (beautiful dress, might be the best of the lot in terms of my quickie 'online shop' of Nordstrom and Macy's but couldn't paste a photo in, you'll have to click the link - also, noticed the reviews say this dress runs 'long', so might be perfect for someone tall). </p> <p>Ok...that was fun!

What kind of venue is the wedding being held at? Is it casual or more formal? Daytime or evening? And can you provide some information regarding your skin tone and hair colour - is your hair long or short? The more details you can provide, the more we'll be able to help you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-mom-dress-for-tall-apple#post-669515 Sun, 15 Jul 2012 23:29:10 +0000 sophiefrye 669515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm tall, long arms and legs, size 12 pants, 14 top, no waist.
