    They are all lovely on you but I think the second one is the nicest. The shape is really flattering and with the right accessories it will look amazing.

    +1 for dress 2. The shape is great on you and I love those colours.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 104 ✭✭chatjunkie


    Another vote here for the second one. It's fab!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 746 ✭✭✭ladypip


    Yet another vote for dress two

    Definitely dress no.2, it's gorgeous.

    Where is it from?

    I also like the style of number 4 on you but in a pastel tone.IMHO none of them are WOW though sorry. Pretty but very "safe".You've a great figure by the way so something in the style of what the pretty dress company sells would look stunning on you if you're a size 18 or less. Spanx (and the likes) do flippin wonders for the jiggly bits.

    Second one :) its lovely and summery but eye catching too :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,246 ✭✭✭daltonmd


    I really like the first one. Think it really suits. Don't like the hem on the second!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,691 ✭✭✭Lia_lia


    Dress two...gorgeous on you!

    Had a look at the link i posted to see styles in the colours you posted and the colour of dress 3 is lovely on you but i think this type of style is more flattering and sexy. I know it's a fine line sometimes with dresses, but we all want to look sexy AND classy tbh. Your dress options are very pretty though, so it depends what you're looking for.

    Yeh! Its sexy AND classy though. OP you have a fab figure but i think your options are too "safe".

    If you dont want too much cleavage this one is a great option too. I have a similar style in black and i looooove it so much.

    Sorry, im totally going off the point of your thread completely.Dress 2 is really beautiful and my pick of the bunch ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,953 ✭✭✭Vinta81


    #2 is fabulous on you!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 294 ✭✭intouch44


    The first one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 269 ✭✭bearhugs


    I love 4 on you! And you have a fabulous figure! :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 122 ✭✭pixysarah


    thanks so much for all the replies, ye have me kind of leaning towards dress 2 now :)
    Definitely dress no.2, it's gorgeous.

    its from warehouse!

    i love that dress very much my style, but haven't been able to find anything like it in the shop. i totally agree with you when you say none of them are wow, i just can't find anything thats wow round here (in limerick) will have a look at that website and see what their delivery times are like as the wedding is saturday week! only problem i can see is that it might be to clingy on the hips which are bait of a funny shape :roll eyes:

    thanks again for all the replies didn't expect that many at all!! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,713 ✭✭✭✭Novella


    Dress 2 is absolutely stunning on you!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 88 ✭✭Nua


    Number 4 hands down!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 813 ✭✭✭CaliforniaDream


    Dress 3 is gorgeous. Love the colour for summer. Dress 2 is lovely as well. It screams 'wedding which is a reason I like it and don't. Dress 3 would be my pick.

    I like number four aswell. Very classy and you have a great figure for it!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 334 ✭✭shinesun


    I prefer number 3 followed closely by number 2. Really don't like number 4.
    Best of luck with your choice:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    Dresses 1 and 2 are very similar to what I would choose myself. Dress 3 is too short and the fit/colour doesn't seem to to flatter you very well. 4 looks cheap and really doesn't do anything to enhance your figure.

    In summary #2 by a distance followed by #1.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,174 ✭✭✭RhubarbCrumble


    I like no 4 :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 122 ✭✭pixysarah


    hey all thanks again for all the replies loads of food for thought!!

    i went looking around the shops again tried on all the dresses i had already tried on and some new ones! so have it now narrowed it down to two. the blue flowery dress got kicked out of the running as i found out one of my cousins is wearing it! the pink stripy one(dress1) is still in the running and this new reddy/coral one(dress 7) i really like both but can't decide, theres also E110 in the difference, and the fact that the pink stripy one is from coast so I'm scared that there might be a chance of someone else having the same dress.

    sorry to be asking again I'm getting totally bogged down bout the whole thing!:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 746 ✭✭✭ladypip


    Dress 7 is stunning even better than my first choice of dress 2.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    Not mad about either - but to me, dress 1 is the best. Dress 7 is too short and I don't like the peplum style shoulders.

    Agreed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 900 ✭✭✭jadie


    In agreement with the last two posters. I tried on that red dress myself before and wouldn't say it is wedding suitable

    Dress 1 definitely. Dress 7 is too short for a wedding I think. I absolutely loved the blue flowery Warehouse dress on you,its a pity your cousins wearing it.

    Dress 1 is lovely though. What accessories are you going to go for?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,597 ✭✭✭anniehoo


    I prefer the style of dress 7, but agree its too short. I like the shoulders on it. Dress 1 is nice, but again its not a "wow" dress for me sorry.Both are only ok.

    That's a really stunning dress :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 676 ✭✭✭Nickibaby*


    I'd go for Dress 1 out of the two. Dress 7 is too short to be wedding appropriate in my opinion


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 122 ✭✭pixysarah


    Thanks again, everyone for all yer replies they have been very helpful,:D i bought dress one today the pink stripy one. its the best of a bad bunch really but theres not much else i can do wedding is in two days and I've searched high and low in limerick for a dress!! and there was 30% off so that eased the pain a bit!!

    now I'm off tomorrow to try and find shoes and a bag god help me :o
