DH kindly took front and back pictures of my dresses yesterday morning. I had bare feet and had just returned from pilates so they are not styled...just me and the dress and some off angles and goofy looks due to the need for quick changes and poses. However, the lighting is better and it is easier to see the fits and colors.
I have been reviewing my holding zone and realized that a light blue lace dress I purchased for my FIL second marriage (and never wore) fits me again. I have been steadily losing covid weight since modifying my diet and if this continues, I could lose another pound or slightly more by the wedding. In any case, DH thinks it fits me well enough now to consider as an option and it has become the front runner for the wedding. I tested to make sure I can sit and move easily, etc. I like the dark grey/charcoal Rachel Comey for the out of towner dinner. I can wear the same silver shoes and use the same handbag with both...makes packing easier!
My mom and DD voted for the pink dress. DH likes it also but not for a wedding, he says it's too conservative looking for me for that sort of event. My mom prefers the RC and DD and her SO likes the DVF. None of them have seen the light blue dress. DH likes the DVF slightly better than the pink dress however he prefers the RC dress because it's a bit unusual and still flattering. I have a light weight slip that works underneath and is not visible given the slit in back.
I will bring the DVF as backup.
The Z&MC dress reverses and I forgot that I had it on the other direction before. No one in my family likes this dress....in fact everyone hates it! LOL!
