    It sort of reminds me of a Swiffer duster?

    Not my cup of tea. I love the top. The bottom...not so much. Tulle is my enemy though.

    I usually love jim hjelm..but i feel like this style would work much better as a mermaid rather than the dropped waist

    Sorry... no. That is UGLY! I am so sorry if this is actually somebody's dress but there is just so much going wrong! But that is just my opinion.

    Your voting thing isn't working.  I don't have a problem with tulle in general, but this is not a good use of it. Great bodice, though!

     I'm with the "tulle explosion" gang on this one.

    Not so much. I like the bodice, though it seems pretty common, but I agree with the PP's about the tulle explosion.

    i kinda like the idea of the dress because its similar to my Jenna by Maggie Sottero....but the bottom just doesnt do it for me

    I kinda dig it but I also think that a bride who likes the top half won't like the bottom half, and vice versa! I also think it would have to be an absolute PERFECT fit to work, hollow to hem! No way to alter it easily - that dropped waist NEEDS to end in that exact spot.

    I love the top, but I would like the bottom better if it was deflated more... just a squeeze! =)

    I love the top but the tulle is too much for me.

    Imagine how uncomfortable it would be to sit down in that thing... or to kneel (for communion, etc.)!
