meh, I am an attention grabber, she knows this about me.

Simple, well fitting dresses will just not look right on me, she'll think I am ill or something!

well then you will be fine!
ALSO!
i have a top from voh and the sizes run REALLY small! im normally a 10 on top and i got a size 14 top is it is still very snug

Ace, thanks for the heads up!

i'm pretty sure well-fitting dresses look right on everybody. but ok

The one I am going to get is well fitted though, the one on the first page of this thread..its not as if its going to be ill fitted.
You know what I meant though, well fitted as in, office wear.

those dresses are lovely, esp. the one black mambo quoted. and if brides were worried that people would out dress them, the bridesmaid dress industry would be out of business.

p.s. other person having a wedding, congrats. a stretch vw beetle? link? i cannot picture this for the life of me!

i don't think the style of the dress is too outrageous just be careful choosing colours, as others have said the mostly white one mightn't be a good idea.

officewear ??!

Wowwww...this is gorgeous. Out of the other three, I preferred the red and white one though I don't know anything about dressing for weddings and people are saying that red and white might not be appropriate. But it's not like it looks remotely like a wedding dress so I don't see how this one could be a problem.

I really love rockabilly style - you don't see many girls who can really pull it off or many who dare to go the whole way with it, which is why it's kind of different. Well, it might just seem that way to me because I'm from a small town, but I was awestruck by some rockabilly girls I saw at the Bullring in Birmingham a few months ago.



This green satin one is a nice colour; they're all a beautiful shape. I'd really like one but I have no idea when I'd wear it...they're not exactly expensive, much cheaper than I'd expected, so that might help in justifying buying one. I'm jealous that you have a reason to buy a cool dress, carol-ann. My advice on choosing a colour would depend on what colour your hair is by the time of the wedding...is it blonde right now? Will it still be blonde?

EDIT:



Not for a wedding, but wow wow wow wow. There are so many cool dresses on the pin up girl site.

I'd do my housework in that dress, pop down co-op in it, do woman things. And prolly sing 'Sunday Morning' by No Doubt while making dinner.

Reminds me of all the cool "make yourself at home. Clean my kitchen!" fridge magnets which are all over the south of england (probably the world) right now.

I have the most amazing dress by 'Get Cutie' and I have to say 'my dress is the prettiest' it's not often I find a thread and look at gorgeous dresses and think me's got better. mwahaHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

Lets see this alleged dress, hehe.

I love this! I'd like to see it actually on someone though.
Plus, I have nowhere to wear it.

I've managed to get a decent pic, get it onto my photobucket & am now having trouble loading it up... it's bugging me but I'll get there.I want to show-off my dress *cries bitter tears*

ok I'm over it.
