    Does anyone have a picture of themselves or another real bride in the Maggie Jenna in WHITE? I tried it on in ivory but the store didn't have a white sample and I am really curious to see how it would look in white on someone who isn't a dress model!

    Also, any Fiorellas... I'd be interested in seeing that as well :)

    Thanks!

    Not sure if it is white or diamond white.  It doesn't look like ivory, at least.

    Are you thinking of getting the Jenna?  It's beautiful! Smile

    HI there! Its gorgeous. I think this Jenna dress may be it! I just want to change the bottom half to a more ruffled look instead of layers that lay flat. But I tried it on in a white and a diamond white and its beautiful. Although the white was too white- too harsh on my skin color. But the diamond white was a bit warmer and it was amazing on me. I'm also olive skinned so it really complimented me. The saleslady told me that ivory looks best on fairer skin.  Call around boutiques in your area to see who has it ; )

    I have tried the Jenna on in Diamond White and Ivory.  I am fair skinned but I did not like the Ivory at all... it's very yellow toned.  The Diamond White is really gorgeous in this dress.

    Wow I didn't know this thread was alive again. Thanks for the pics ladies, you all look beautiful!

    @Rileybaby... I wanted to try on the Fiorella soooo badly, but none of the salons in my city carried it yet. Do you have any pics of it on? I would love to see :)

    YeY!  I have been searching for months for pictures of real people in Jenna.  I have ordered it in white for my wedding in september but had only seen pictures of the model in it, which i really think makes it look wierd!  But all your photos are fab!  I love it!

    Thanks girls.

    Just one thing though, what jewellery are you wearing because i am having a nightmare choosing!

    THANKS

    @neat anedo: I do have pictures of my fiorella...however, this is right after I took it out of the box it was shipped to my house in, so it's definitely has some wrinkles :) I'm excited to get it altered too so that it actually fits properly

    sorry these pics are so big...for some reason I can't make them any smaller

    Has anyone else bought this dress and tried it on? It fits really funny in the bodice... the boning sticks out a lot and makes a line down the boobs. I have no idea how to fix it. I tried putting cups in it, but it doesn't help. I'm a size 2 with B cup boobs... its not like I'm super flat... but I'd have to be a D to fill this out. Help someone!

    I bought "Jenna" as well. I was originally only trying on mermaid/trumpet style gowns, tried on this dress on a whim, and ended up purchasing it- now I'm having second thoughts!!! I really like the way this dress looks on the Maggie site, but on me it sort of fell flat (granted it was very wrinkled), it seemed like it didn't have as much tulle, etc. underneath to create volume like on the Maggie site. Has anyone else noticed this? Would you suggest a hoop or crinoline under this dress? I want my dress to make a statement, which is why I was only looking at really different mermaid styles, and as is, this dress is giving me major second thoughts!

    Any thoughts/ideas/suggestions would be much appreciated!

    I recently bought Maggie Sottero Jenna.  The fit is already escaping me!

     

    Can someone remind me exactly how far down the body the bodice goes before the skirt start?

    Above the butt, halfway down, or under?

     

    Thanks!

    I GOT JENNA TOO!!!! :)) Such a great dress.. I bought mine in Ivory (shown in picture.) I was afraid it was going to be a little to much on the yellow side, but it actually looks white in person! I was also a bit paranoid as to whether I made the right decision or not, especially when I'd refer the picture on the website, but I am so happy with my dress and I can't wait to wear it in just a few months!!! I am also not wearing a hoop in the pictures. Happy planning everyone!!<3

How much did you pay for yours? There is a few places I went to charging btwn 100-300 difference and i want to make sure I didn't get ript off? I paid $890 for dress (discount from sottero trunk show) THANK U!!!!!

    I recently ordered Jenna for my destination wedding too  - in Punta Cana!  I had another dress that was "the dress" through many trips to different stores, but when I put Jenna on it was an instant "this is my dress!" feeling!  I got 10% off the dress price for paying for it in full when I ordered it, so I ended up paying $976 total with tax, shipping, etc. included.  Can't wait til it comes in!

    Katiepuff, it looks great on you!

    I also purchased Jenna for my April 2011 wedding.  I got Ivory, but sort of wish I'd gotten diamond white, but oh well, I'll just have to be happy with Ivory.  I don't think most ppl will be able to tell a difference.  Don't have any pics, but I will add some once the dress arrives.

    I love Jenna! I'm ordering her for my wedding in August.  I'm trying to decide on which color I want though.  I have really fair skin.  This is me in the diamond white...i think i'm leaning towards it over ivory. I'd love to know what veil and headpiece everyone is wearing with theirs!

    Did anyone trim down the bodice? I'm on the "A" team and the cups seem to go so high up on my body. They'd be perfect if like an inch was cut off the top. has anyone done this? Thanks!!
