So I just ordered this gorgeous gorgeous dress not being able to try it on and I’ve been looking for pictures of other brides to get ideas for veils, jewelry, etc and I’ve not seen a single real bride in this dress 🙁 I’m beginning to wonder if somethings wrong with it?? Any 5215 brides out there in the shadows????
Membermelloxoxyello: I tried on this dress but it just wasnt the one for me. I could upload a pic of me in it if that will help you but I do not have a full look 🙂
MemberThat’d be awesome still haha I just am worried now that it’s going to be too promish or something :/ I wanted super sparkle though

Membermelloxoxyello: it’s a gorgeous dress, I’m sure you will look amazing! I think the dresses you will find that are most common are lace fit and flares, which seems to be the “in” fabric these days. So, my guess is that the fabric is just not as popular, therefore harder to find pics! I didn’t go with lace either though, it didn’t really suit me.
Membermelloxoxyello: btw, if you google (image) your dress, there are a few “real” brides that come up from other site. 🙂
MemberGrumpythedwarf I did Google it and only 1 real bride showed up :/ she had on gloves and a weird headpiece though which didn’t appeal to me AT ALL lol the only other one that showed up was actually an allure dress that’s 3x the price :'(

Here you go 🙂 did like this dress but another one made me melt! Congrats on your beautiful dress
Membersambee99 that’s gorgeous on you! What dress did you wind up getting? I aactually had a seamstress make me a Maggie Sottero Divina Replica which turned out amazing but I just couldn’t get over the “not enough bling” thing lol I haven’t seen this dress in person yet so I’m hoping I’ll love it!
Membermelloxoxyello: oh my gosh you’re right, it IS an Allure dress! That’s crazy, they look identical! Either way, it’s a gorgeous gown and you will look STUNNING!! 🙂
MemberI know! It’s crazy how alike they are!!!! And aww thanks! Wanna know the best part?!?!?! I found it as a never worn sample at a consignment shop in Texas, and after shipping and tax, for a $975 dress, I only paid *drumroll please* $311!!!!!!!!!!! Less than I paid for my prom dress in high school hahaha
Membermelloxoxyello: that is awesome, I’m jealous! Don’t worry though, honestly, I think we all worry because we want to look perfect on that one day! It’s normal, try not to stress!
Membermelloxoxyello: thanks! I ended up buying Allure 9002 (see my most recent thread and give your opinion too 🙂 🙂 ) Are you planning on using the Divina replica as ceremony dress and this as reception? Or replacing that dress with this one?
You got a deal!
MemberI am planning on selling my Divina replica and just using this one. I got engaged a couple years ago and at the time I wanted bling but I let people talk me into plain because “it’s not prom, it’s your wedding”. Now I regret not sticking to my guns and I’m paying for it :/ but that’s ok! Hopefully it sells 🙂
Membermelloxoxyello: I’m a 5215 bride! I just got my dress 3 days ago. It is a really pretty dress. I didn’t think that I would end up with a dress like that but it was the most flattering. I still feel hesitant about all the beading as well but I’ve done so much research on dresses and there are a lot of dresses out there with much more bling than this dress. this dress with a simply beaded veil looks amazing. I feel that it looks great on an hour glass figure. I wish I had a picture for you but my sister wouldn’t let me keep the pics on my phone because she thinks I will give in and show my fiancé lol I think you made a great choice and I’m jealous that you got such a good deal!!
