I voted for the first dress. The bodice is beautiful and it gives you a tiny waist. It also has the most ruffles.
omg dress 3 all the way! It just literally falls on your body perfectly. That dress was made for you !
I'm stuck between 1 and 3. I love how 1 gives you that hour glass shape but I love the more bling in 3. I can't decide, this is really tough. Which one are you leaning towards?
i LOVE the Jasmine (#1), the bodice is exquisite and i love the overall balance of beading and ruffles. but they are ALL amazing. :)
LOL! Allure 8815 was my dress and so I'm a little biased! : ) But, if it helps...all my family and friends LOVED my dress and some of my friend's daughters thought I was a princess! Haha! In all honesty, the dress really looks fabulous on you! I'm also 5' and wore 4 inch purple heels. Good luck in choosing your dress!
I too, will be looking for Purple Shoes!
I am loving all of them so not leaning to any of them quite yet. I'm taking into consideration from my mom/dad who like Allure, brother likes Jasmine, MOH likes Madison, BM's are split amongst all 3! They are all gorgeous! Price points are all relatively similar too. Really you ladies are going to be awesome help! Keep them comments coming :)
I voted for #1, because I like that it flows a into the skirt smoothly. 3 is almost the same but to me a little bit choppy with the trim all along the top of the skirt. They all look great on you though are the similar cost wise?
The skirt of #2 with the bodice of #3.
I voted #3 because overall it suits you the most :)
I love the second one. The first one is really pretty too. I don't care much for the last one.
3, wow! I think it's the perfect amount of ruffles and bling. You just look stunning in it.
Plus the carpet in the background is purple, not that that's relevant to the dress, it just makes me happy.
I seriously saw the first one and went "wow". I love it! I think that it has the nicest looking bodice, shows off your figure, and LOVE the skirt. The first dress has a very intricate skirt that has lots of fullness and detail. The second one seems to be like someone took the first skirt and ripped out some of the layers and the last one just the very basics of the skirt.
I also think the cups around your chest on three are really high up. Kinda looks strange, to be honest.
Either way, whatever you chose, LOVE the choices!!
I really liked both #1 and #3 ...but I voted #1 because
your waist looks tiny
the neckline is flattering and will not be as fidget-y as #1 (if the dress drops, which they all tend to when strapless, the neckline is more forgiving and less likely to flash you)
the bling below your hips doesn't cut off the skirt / cut off your legs from the dress (it all flows really nicely)
and I like the ruffles better (they are bigger and more fun imo)
BUT all three looked gorgeous, I don't envy your decision!
They are all nice, but I think the waist on the Madison hits you better. Great choices!
Holy crap theyre all soo similar! But something about #3 pops out at me.
I think #3 is the most flattering and unique. You look great in all of them though!
I like the second. I think it's the most elegant looking of the three.
The first might just be clipped too severely? I find it to be doing something funny to you hips. It's drawing attention there. The draping on the bodice of 1and 3 does not look well done to me.
Although Dresses #1 and #3 (which, as I'm sure you know, are quite similiar) definitely show off your amazing figure in more apparent detail than does Dress #2, I picked Dress #2 for its beauty, flow and simplicity -- while still offering you the bling and ruffles that you desire.
When I look at Dresses #1 and #3, I am lost in the multiple, competing details of the gowns -- the back-and-forth opposing directions of the pleated fabric, the heavy, encrusted beading on the bust and hip areas, and the cascades of ruffles. I think, in photos, you will not love seeing all of that "dark," "grayish" look of the encrusting, especially at the hip area. I love that the bling is concentrated in key locations on Dress #2 -- so that the bling serves to accent the dress in logical locations and does not sort of become a distraction to its own presence (as I think is the case, especially with Dress #3, where the bling at the hip sort of looks a little bit like ivy growing on a wall.) I also love that the pleating on the bodice of Dress #2 is all running in the same direction, helping the design of the gown to flow nicely from top to bottom without a lot of visual distraction. I think Dress #2 is the best choice. It's beautiful on you, and I think you will like it much more in your pics.
ETA: In reviewing the comments that were posted while I was writing and posting mine, I see that Miss Peanut's dress is Dress #3. It definitely is a beautiful, very figure-flattering gown. I personally just like Dress #2 better for the reasons I noted above, but I'm sure you looked stunning in your gown, Miss Peanut!
I think all of them are flattering on you, but as I went by one and two, I thought they look nice, but dress 3 made me stop and look. I even went back to the other dresses and looked again and 3 still caught my attention the most. I think it just is so figure flattering and I love the details on it, more then the other two.
I chose #3, here are my reasons, the neckline is to die for on you, the second broadened your shoulders. #3 cuts you right and doesn't make you look hippy (#1). And the fabric is more pleasing to me.
Good luck! You really can't go wrong with any of them.
I voted for #2-Madison. In my opinion the ruffles on that dress look a little softer and the transition between the bodice of the dress and the ruffles is smoother. I also like the bling along the neckline and at the hip on this dress best.
Second choice would be the Jasmine because it has the most ruffles. I like the Allure the least, because I don't like the way the beading on the bust comes to a point under the breast. Based on the photo I also think you'll have the least impact with the ruffles on the Allure, because it looks to me like a good bit would end up being hemmed (but you may have the option to order a petite version, which would address that issue).
I agree with others who have said that you won't go wrong with any of these.
all three are GORGEOUS and soo similar it was hard to choose! in the end i decided on 2.. i think the ruffles were my favorite (as above me said- they were softer and more romantic IMO).. and i prefered the beading on this dress the best also. however- as i said and so did everyone else- you look amazing in all 3!!
My fav is the first dress, thats the one I voted for. But you have to pick which ever one YOU love the best :)
I voted for #3. It just does you justice while leaving room for you to come through and shine beautifully. It lengthens you and hugs you and has bling and ruffles, just the right amount of each. Your waist is accentuated there, too, as others have commented dress #1 does, but it seems a more natural fit and the fabric falls properly around you.
I'm crazy picky about this type of skirt (not usually my thing), and I have to say #1 ALL THE WAY!
I actually like the way it flows from bodice to skirt. I -like- the way the ruffles sit. It also makes your figure look pretty killer.
I don't like #2 much. The skirt just looks like it isn't trying quite hard enough. I feel like the way it's cut from bodice to skirt is looks kind of unnatural.
#3 is pretty nice, but not as good as one. The skirt reminds me more of petals actually, which I like, but I love the body of the first. The bodiceo nthis one is similar to numero uno, but the slight differences just really enhance your figure in dress 1.
TL;DR
#1
Number 3 fits you great, but that's something you can and should fix in alterations on the other ones. I find the boobs bling on 3 to be strange looking. Sort of... drippy. Voted for 1. The AA has a pretty good match on the bodice to the skirt in combination to preferring the bling placement.
allure dress 3 it looks amazing on you, the way the ruffles and beading is done looks a million times better then the other 2
