I really like all those dresses, my least fav is the yellow one though.  And my fav is this one, pretty and kinda bridal:



You could totally put bronze heels, pink jewelry and a brown wrap with that (to make it more fall-ish and aren't your colors brown and pink?)

I like this dress the best.


 



The striped and the yellow are also pretty. Not a big fan of the blue.

FP, brown and maybe a champagne color are my colors.  i toyed with the idea of pink and brown, but then i thought about the guys ties.  i thought they might be a little weird about pink ties...  i haven't really 100% decided, but i think that the pink may just pop up in a bouquet.

 this one is STUNNING on.  it's so beautiful, so rich, and sooo flattering.  it's all satin, and i just can't say enough about how beautiful and flattering it is IRL.  i love that you can use a red wrap/teal wrap, black shoes, gold shoes, silver shoes with it.  it just such a pretty and versatile dress.  i it. 


my second pick is #1, although those dress tend not to be really flattering at all.  the top tulle layer sometimes adds some "bulk", and the high tie waist goes right around a persons belly.  it's too high or not high enough, it just sits at the biggest part of a person's stomach.


#3 shows EVERYTHING.  make sure you have amazing spanx if you get this one.


#2 i think the same with #1, just a little too much fabric/detail in unflattering places. 


HTH.  i'm not saying you couldn't pull off ALL of those dresses, it's just that's what i've noticed with similar dresses that he makes.  the only ones i've seen IRL are #4 on, and #3 in a different color.  i know how #1 and #2 fit because he does a version of those dresses every year.

I like this one the best. And since it isn't too bridal-looking you could wear it for more occasions.

Well, that just makes it even more perfect!

I like the first dress a lot, but the striped dress is so gorgeous. I would totally go with that one, it's unique and beautiful.

i'm going to get the striped one as well as the gold-ish one.  i really like the blue, but i don't want everyone to see my butt bounce around. 


i say i will return one and wear the other, but i'll probably keep them both if i like them.  i've been lusting over the stiped one for a while.


shopgirl82 i'm PM'ing you.

You made the right choice. The gold and the striped are my two favorites!

Yay! Those are my two faves, hands down!

I love pink and brown. I actually did my room in those colors a couple of years ago and I always talk about having them for my wedding colors.
