    I am having a small delima on which Amsale Gown to choose.  I have tried them both on and everyone says they look great.  I feel great in both of them I am just not sure which one is right for me.  I am having an outdoor wedding in September.  I have found the Amsal Brianne dress at a discounted price in white.  I haven't been able to find the Serena for a discount. They are both beautiful and classic.  What do you guys think???

    My vote is for the Brianne.  It just grabbed my attention more than the Serena.  They are both beautiful.

    I Love the second -- Brianne.  Get that one so I can live vicariously through you...  I love the color it's shown in.

    Brianne as long as the white is the right shade for you. I love sweetheart necklines, so I may be biased. Do you have pictures of you in them.

    What color is your skin? I ask, because I love the Brianne in the color shown.  I got my dress in a similar color, but it really worked for my olive tones. Brianne is slightly less understated than the Serene.  It definitely took my breath away!

    I really like the second one, but that's because I'm partial to sweetheart necklines.

    i love the first one.  Both are beautilful~ but if you think about it.. taffeta is definately going to breath much better than satin.  And the last thing you want that day is to be uncomfortably warm..

    I'd do the Brianne but I'd have the seamstress cut off the straps so it's a strapless gown.  I <3 strapless wedding gowns.

    that's so funny, I'm looking for the Brynne dress or the Serena Amsale dress for my July 18, 2010 wedding!  If ANYONE knows about either one of these dresses being willing to be resold for $1000 or less, I would forever be sooo grateful.  I am a grad. student who won't start a job until after the wedding and cannot afford the dress full price and like NO other dresses...!!  Thank you!

    I really like the Serena; it's gorgeous and unique, but not too out-of-the-ordinary, either.  The other one is pretty, too, but I am just not digging the skinny straps.
