    something about the middle ruffly piece on the satin dress is distracting to me - though they're both beautiful - I'd go with #1

    i love what the satin one does for your body, i mean you are slamming but i keep coming back to the first one as my fav.  there is something about the fabric ruffle (dont know what its called) and seams on the front that makes me think no. you are beautiful in both and i voted #1

    First One hands down. The second doesn't look half as glam. It actually looks strange, kinda not finished or inside out. I know that's nit the case but the first is great!

    Both are gorgeous dresses and looking amazing on you, but the tulle one was just extra-awesome!

    I liked the top of the second dress (the one below), but the skirt with the ruffles just feels off for me.

    The first one looks really great on you!

    the first one is much softer the I think the second is much more unique.

    Definitely the Tulle. For some reason, the satin dress "wears you" more than you wear it, I think due to some of the seams/details. The tulle dress looks lovely!

    #1 for sure. You look very ethereal and bridal. The second looks uncomfortable and detailed more for a sexy formal event, vs a wedding.

    I love the first one! To be honest I don't like the second at all. You have a great figure in both though!

    It might just be the lighting, but the satin one does look a little like a calico sample dress. I also think maybe the cups make it look a bit too 'underwear'.

    I love the tulle, very romantic and more flattering!

    I think they're both gorgeous on you butthen pieces of fabric on the second take away from the dress and I LOVE the tulle on you!

    #1!  #2 looks like an elaborate Oscar gown and you're absolutely stunning in it, it just doesn't feel "bridal" to me.

    I voted for #1. They do have a similar shape, but the ruffles on the satin gown aren't doing it for the dress. The first dress is goregous!

    You look great in both, but like others I like the 1st a little better.

    Thanks so much for all the help!

     

    The tulle is the one I have bought but I am having second thoughts. Everyone likes the tulle one better but I feel sexier and thinner in the satin one! Lol.

     

    I understand the ruffles comment everyone is making.

     

    Maybe make the satin one with no ruffles? But I love the softness of the tulle.

     

    I'm confusing myself now!

     

    STRESSED!

     

    Thanks!

    I like the second one but didn't vote for it because it seems like the pleats in the front  of the skirt should be on the back of the dress. Other than that I like the bodice. I think it's a little overwhelming though. So I vote for the first. It looks great on your figure.

    You have such a tiny waist and the second one features that but it reminds me of old west saloon dresses.  Number one is just so pretty.

    Okay I'm loving #2. I am so OVER gowns like the 1st one (mind you, my wedding feels a little 1940s to me, and if I didn't already have a dress, I'd be buying dress #2 first thing in the morning!).

    So there. I said it. I LOVE #2 on you! And I agree, you look sexier in #2. If it fits your style, then go for it!

    #2 looks too severe imo, #1 is very flattering and pretty

    #1 is nice and pretty and lovely and all that, but if you're going for something with impact, you rock #2.  You do look thinner in it, and it is reminiscent of lingerie, but that's kind of the point, yes?  If it's your style, do it!

     

    I might be biased, as I just bought a Sue Wong 20's inspired gown for my wine bar wedding.

    To be honest I think you can do better than these 2: The 2nd shows your AMAZING body (like pp's have pointed out) but I frankly hate the construction & I honestly can't say the 1st one flatters you now that I've seen what could be!

    You chose the right dress. The first one is beautiful and very flattering on you, but it is important that you love it and feel good in it.

    Totally tulle! The satin one, though it's so slimming, is kind of weird in the crotch area to be honest =\

    Have no second thoughts!

    Love the tulle one!! The 2nd one does look kinda saloon girl to me as @Ms.Clean said, like western glam! Its pretty but not wedding enough for me. But I think you made the right choice for sure:)
