I was wondering if anyone has used any of the 12 Alfred Sung dupioni cocktail length bridesmaid dresses for their wedding. I have been searching the internet for pictures of real weddings with any of the dresses (most particularly D448) and have only found a few.
I would also like to see all 3 shades of pink together (Papaya, Begonia and Watermelon). I have been to several bridal shops and not one has had all 3 color pinks.

i don’t have a photo but i did see one dupioni dress in papaya in person. it looks a lot more orange in person when the online photo looks more pink to me.

I used them. I tried to be a totally cool bride, and let the girls pick any dress they wanted as long as it was the same designer and fabric. They all picked the same dress. It’s the scoop neck one in “quarry”

@SapphireSun: nice! i let my BMs pick too and they all seem to like the high neck. love the quarry but my colors are pink and gold. has anyone seen the champagne? do you know if it is really light? almost similar to white?

The sample in the store where I got mine was the begonia and I really liked it. Unfortunately my groom was dressed in red, so it didn’t work for me. It’s kind of a “cool” pink. I didn’t notice ever seeing it in watermelon or papaya.

@SapphireSun: Hi there. I am also looking at using the Alfred Sung dresses, but the sample size didn’t fit ANY of my bridesmaids (it was HUGE on one of them, and tiny on the others)… So it was very hard to get a good idea of the fit. Once your bridesmaids got their true sizes, were they a relatively good fit, or were major alterations required for all of them?

@DTJB – did you ever find a picture of the begonia, if so would you mind sharing? I am trying to decide between begonia and the pearl pink. I’m also doing pink and gold! [email protected]
