Hey hive!

So, if money were no object, and you could have any dress in the world for free, what would you wear? Please post pictures! Is your real dress close to your inspiration dress?

I say "any dress for free" because I couldn't spend 6K on a dress even if I had it!

My dream dress is the Amsale A408 (my avatar!). I think it was around $5800 a few years back. Here she is-- I love that French bustle!

A close second would be a Kenneth Poole ball gown like this:

This is a Romona Keveza, and I fell in love with it the moment I saw it.

I've always loved a nice french bustle! 

Mine would be the Monique Lhuillier Jillian Gown...It looks so soft and beautiful and I love the detail around the bust.  I think it's between $5000-7500!  Oh if I could find that dress on a major sale!

Is it bad that I got my dream dress? Well, not bad, but it sounds cheesy.

Here it is, Maribel by Christos. I love it, and have loved it ever since I first saw it.

How much is the Kenneth Pool dress? I've seen one girl wear one on The Knot and always wondered what the price was on it.

The Amsale Tyler is the dress I wanted as well. Great dress but from what I hear they run at about $5000 or am I wrong?

@hhcheung2000 - $5k is about right, I've seen them second hand for $2-$3k but it was still out of my budget.

I fell in LOVE with the dress Penelope Cruz wore at this year's Oscars!!  It's white vintage Pierre Balmain Haute Couture dress from 1950, and it's just A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!  I have no idea what it costs, but it is definitely my DREAM DRESS... *sigh*

10K, my entire budget, oh Oscar you are so cruel!

But I'm adding the flowers to a simpler dress that I bought, so I'm happy.

Oops- photo issues, check out "wedding-dress-5" the others won't work

Mine is not so much a dream because of the money aspect of it... it's just that I always wanted the big skirt type dress, I went with the maggie symphony which I LOVE. But had I wanted to stray from the type of gown I wanted.. I would have got something like this.. I just think it's so pretty and sexy.

For fellow Pronovias lover eloping:

This wedding was featured in a local magazine. She rocked the Pronovias dress. I love when brides wear the dress better then the model in ads.
