I finally had the chance to show my husband the contenders for dresses to wear to my niece’s wedding in London this summer.
My original thread here: https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....-continued
His favorite far and away was the navy halter-top high-low hem dress, as long as alterations are feasible. He loved it even before I had it zipped all the way up!
Interestingly, his second favorite is the white floral sheath — he loves the fit and doesn’t find it too tight at all (I may have lost a couple of pounds in the last few weeks, which helps).
His next favorite choice was the embroidered blue floral sheath, and last was the blue Tadashi Shoji with the embroidered pattern down the sides (not available in Finds, sorry). But he liked them all. If I’d never shown him the others, he would have loved the T.S. dress! But his opinion was based on his favorites being less predictable and having more “wow” factor than the usual basic sheath shape.
I’ll take the Nicole Miller dress to the tailor to see about alteration. I’m wondering if it might not be a bad idea to keep one of the other two WH/BM dresses since I’ve had such trouble finding “occasion” dresses in the past and I now have several good options, at very reasonable price points. I’ll return the T.S. dress. But I’ll need to decide on the others soon because the WH/BM return window will close in a few weeks.
