    In my crazy quest to figure out what I want, I'm thinking I should try some lace dresses with the cap sleeves and the keyhole backs.  I love that classic look, but It must not be the big trend because most of the designers I have looked at have only one or two.  Allure so far has had the most that I have liked.  Any suggestions on brands to look at?

    Jim Hjelm has a lot of lace dresses, and I have definitely seen a few with the keyhole back. That is such a beautiful look. Good luck finding your perfect dress!

    The Allure is my favourite!!!

    Some others are: David's Bridal VW9768, Pronovias Ecuador, Lazaro L815, Jim Hjelm 8663

    Hope those get you started!  I am really falling in love with that look too! :)

    Monique Lhuillier-Scarlet (my forever favorite!) and Tamara. It's an older model so it's probably not on her website but you can check oncewed and preowned for pics :)

    fyi-the Jim Hjelm 8663 doesn't come with a keyhole back. I think many brides modify the back, which is full lace (I tried this dress on, it was my #2 contender).

    You might try a search for Demetrios 9692.  It doesn't seem to be on their website anymore, but you might be able to pick up one second hand.

    YES MsBBery and Ms Scarlet! I am so hoping to be able to find a "Scarlet" for my wedding, but I'm not even engaged yet and I'm worried they will be gone by the time my "time comes," lol. I am obsessed! And a little worried I may just "accidentally" buy one Once Wed one of these days..

    @kirabee, don't worry! I still see many left on oncewed and after the summer I'm sure there will be more.

    Your comment cracked me up coz it kind of happened to me, I went ahead and got Scarlet right after I was engaged (without any discussion of theme, venue etc). Unfortunately no one else was on board with me so I had to sell the dress!

    Haha, yes, Ms Scarlet - I have no date, no ring, and my wedding could possibly take place on either of the two coasts, but I am obsessing over that dress. I've never even seen it in person!

    @kirabee, haha that's so awesome! Maybe you might just go ahead and try it on one day just for fun. So when the time comes you can just search for it. I was planning to "just look" but once I tried it on i wasn't strong enough to walk away without buying it...oops.

    IMO this dress makes every women look soooo sexy I'm sure it will be around those used wedding dress sites for many years to come!

    Yes, I would love to find one to try on.. I'm a little worried about the color, since it seems very "ivory." I tend to have trouble wearing any off-whites; since I am so fair skinned, I end up looking the same color as the dress.

    Cincity75 - so sorry to hijack your thread, but I think I have expressed my favorite, lol!

    Jim Hjelm 

    JH8011 Was kind of disappointed with the quality of this one. Everything just kinda hung

    JH8859 LOVE this one!

    JH8804

    WTOO Miriam Love loved this one! The fabric was sooo soft and comfortable.

    The one thing I will say with the diamond back more soft chiffony & lacy dresses. It shows everything!

    As far as I know they start in the 3-3500 range but I've seen preowned ones from 1500-2000 range at the lowest.

    The lace diamond back ones are more in the high 3's.
