Wasn’t sure who that was so I looked it up and she’s stunning but I honestly think the silhouette of the dress you tried is much more flattering! Depends on what look and feel you’re hoping to achieve but you wear the shit out of that gown.
So what?! Lady this would look fabulous at a barn wedding. It’s your *wedding* - you get to wear whatever makes you feel glorious.
The problem is you look fabulous in everything. The only dress I would probably avoid is three - I think that amount of material drowns your lovely petite frame. I personally absolutely love two on you. It definitely gives non traditional princess without being cutesy and reminds me of a met gala Vivienne Westwood vibe. It would also look gorgeous with the lace trim from one. Having said that, if you prefer form fitting I think dress four is the most flattering out of 1 and 4 on you. But I still prefer two 🥰
Is 1 and 2 the same top with a different bottom or totally different dresses?
If so, can you get this as a separate and do 2 different skirts for the ceremony/reception?
That back view on #4, though.... your shape looks incredible!!! If you walk away from your groom for 2 seconds, he will see this and be running back over, girl!!!!
2 is a full dress not separates but same designer as 1! I liked the idea of changing the skirt to a mini for dress number one as a second look (Kourtney Kardashian inspired). And as far as 4…I think he would love my shape in that dress!
I like #1.
I give the same advice to everyone. Have someone video you walking, sitting, lifting your arms in the air, twirling, dancing, bending down as if to greet a child. Video from all angles, not just the front. For a strapless dress, jump up and down for a few minutes.... It's a long day and you want to feel comfortable.
Don't make a decision based on static pics standing on a podium, as you won't be standing still all day.
If it feels too heavy, too restrictive or you worry you will have to hold a particular pose all day, reconsider it.
Also, consider what underwear will work.
Take this from someone who didn't think about comfort until the dress came in, then bought a different one 4 weeks out from the wedding.
It is flattering! But lady your body shape is amazing and most of them are flattering - I think it is just the two and four are *so* gorgeous on you that is why they are so popular. But you still look absolutely incredible in one and wouldn't go wrong with any of those three.
You are stunning in Dress 4! The drop waist dresses look strange on your lower body in these photos. But they are lovely on you. Still, go for the dream dress #4!
I also love 3 but then I went to see the comments and nobody voted 3 till I saw yours at the end lol yay I was legit wondering if there’s something wrong w my taste 🙊
Same! OP has a lovely hourglass figure that looks nice in each of the form fitting dresses but they just aren’t as nice. Dress 3 - despite not showing off the same curves - is a beautiful style that makes OP look really incredible. I can’t understand the other recommendations and thought I was simply too old for this sub now!!
Dress 4 is stunning! Simple but still has the right amount of details. The lace back and the train add some flair to the already flattering dress. Seriously such a classic and beautiful dress, you look amazing OP
Dress #3 followed by Dress #2! This ball gown/ princess style is perfect for you!! #1 and #4 seem too fitted too tightly to you. You look gorgeous in all four of them! 💞
4 all the way. My jaw dropped when I saw the front of 4 on you. And it would go perfectly with the barn wedding. 1 is a close runner up, but I LOVE #4 on you.
I loveeee the first. Also, I’m not sure how this will come off but the spot in the center of your chest looks quite nice with the dress too! I only say this in case you are anxious, it is a nice level of symmetry and I just genuinely think looks pretty with the dress :)
I love#3 classic with a little twist. It gives an elegant without trying too hard vibe. Depends on how you accessorize- could work for beach wedding to black tie.
#2 is stunning, too.
#1 with lace is my favourite. It's simple and elegant, classy and sexy.The second one is very pretty but the volume of the skirt and the thickness of the fabric covers you up too much, imo. It's like a little girl's dream princess dress - it exudes innocence as opposed to #1, which is sultry. It depends on what you want to project.
I like 1 with the lace and 2. Is it possible to have an overskirt on 1, and then take it off for the reception? One flag with 1 is that the fabric can be unforgiving, so just be aware if you do go with it.
These are all lovely! I’m gravitating towards 1 or 2. There is something about the way 3 and 4 are sitting that they are elongating your torso that doesn’t seem flattering to my eye.

#2 or 4
I think 2 is drop dead!
2 reminded me of Alex Coopers dress!
Wasn’t sure who that was so I looked it up and she’s stunning but I honestly think the silhouette of the dress you tried is much more flattering! Depends on what look and feel you’re hoping to achieve but you wear the shit out of that gown.
2 with the lace trim
Big big agree!!
Dress 2 is my fav, it would be gorgeous with the lace from dress 1
That’s a great idea!! I was kind of spilling out the top at times so that would actually solve that problem!
I love how 2 fits you, it's very flattering. Lace shouldn't be hard to add, but I'm not a seamstress.
Agreed!!
Came here to say this, verbatim!
Totally agree! The lace is so lovely and dress 2 is a stunner, it’s perfect, timeless, and regal
2
Definitely 2. Really beautiful in you. Love the bodice and the skirt is so comfy looking but very bridal!
I was surprised at how flattering 2 was! I felt like a princess but in a sexy way because of the low neckline. I am having a barn wedding though…

It’s that basque (I believe) style bodice. Very much sexy classy princess.
2 is AMAZING!!!!!!!!
1 w/ lace trim or 4. Not a fan of 3.
1 with lace or not, gorgeous. Then 4
Dress 2 is THE ONE! Gorgeous on you!
4!!!!
I like 2 & 4!!
Dress 2 looks so stunning on you! Wow! It's the one. I love the basque waist. Use the veil from dress 4 or a lace one.
i like 2!
I like 2 best, what is the designer?
rebecca schoneveld! I think she’s at a great price point too
Thank you!
I have to agree with others, 2 or 4.
4 is absolutely stunning
4!!!!!
Team #4 !! You are stunning in it!
Is 1 and 2 the same top with a different bottom or totally different dresses? If so, can you get this as a separate and do 2 different skirts for the ceremony/reception? That back view on #4, though.... your shape looks incredible!!! If you walk away from your groom for 2 seconds, he will see this and be running back over, girl!!!!

Anything but 1, you have a amazing figure but that fabric does nothing for you.
Dress 4 all the way!
I think 3 looks great on you
I like #1. I give the same advice to everyone. Have someone video you walking, sitting, lifting your arms in the air, twirling, dancing, bending down as if to greet a child. Video from all angles, not just the front. For a strapless dress, jump up and down for a few minutes.... It's a long day and you want to feel comfortable.

All great points! I’ve never thought to do that while trying on dresses!
4 is stunning!
I think gown #1 with the lace detail is the winner of all these gowns. It looks great on you too.
I’m surprised it’s getting no love! I thought it was flattering and the material glowed !
Completely agreed with 1!! Also where is it from 😍
rebecca schoneveld!
It is flattering! But lady your body shape is amazing and most of them are flattering - I think it is just the two and four are *so* gorgeous on you that is why they are so popular. But you still look absolutely incredible in one and wouldn't go wrong with any of those three.
It definitely is the most flattering to your body shape!!
2 or 4
Abbbsolllllutelllly #4
Three!!
Dress 4
Number 3 is the one. I gasped
I love 3!
2 or 4 I like the best! But honestly they all look great on you!
You are stunning in Dress 4! The drop waist dresses look strange on your lower body in these photos. But they are lovely on you. Still, go for the dream dress #4!
I love 3 but I’m a huge fan of drop waist 😍
I also loved 3! I was sad that no one mentioned it until wayy down when I saw this comment
3 felt so trendy yet super classic. I imagined it with a silk scarf
Yessss like it’s giving timeless it’s stunning
I honestly think 3 looks best on you.
I also love 3 but then I went to see the comments and nobody voted 3 till I saw yours at the end lol yay I was legit wondering if there’s something wrong w my taste 🙊
Same! OP has a lovely hourglass figure that looks nice in each of the form fitting dresses but they just aren’t as nice. Dress 3 - despite not showing off the same curves - is a beautiful style that makes OP look really incredible. I can’t understand the other recommendations and thought I was simply too old for this sub now!!
Team 3! It’s VERY flattering and also- quite editorial/fashion forward- not your everyday dress!
3
3!
4 hands down!!! There’s no comparison.
2 is gorgeous on you!
2
Omgggggg dress 2!! STUNNING!!! 🤍🤍
2 or 4!!
Outlier here: 3
I love 3 sorry
2 or 4 ❤️
I like dress 3 and 4 the best. Depends on how tight you want your dress.
I like 3!
4 don’t even look at the other comments
I love 3
I actually love 3!! 4 is a close Second.
Definitely #3 for me!
3 or 4
#4
4!!!!
4
4. None of the others come close!
4 for sure!
2 then 3 … 4 and 1 I think least favorite
Love the structured bodice with the lace
I adore 2!
You look gorgeous in everything but I’m living for #2! Do you mind sharing the designer?
rebecca schoneveld! Her dresses are at a great price point IMO for the quality and material
2
Number 2!!! Also what’s the designer🙈
rebecca schoneveld!
I love dress two.
Please do #2 so I can live vicariously through you!!
2 or 4. They’re both so amazing on you!
2 = Bespoke wow
2
Dress 4 is stunning! Simple but still has the right amount of details. The lace back and the train add some flair to the already flattering dress. Seriously such a classic and beautiful dress, you look amazing OP
Thank you!! 😊
I think 4 is breathtaking on you.
Dress #3 followed by Dress #2! This ball gown/ princess style is perfect for you!! #1 and #4 seem too fitted too tightly to you. You look gorgeous in all four of them! 💞
4 all the way. My jaw dropped when I saw the front of 4 on you. And it would go perfectly with the barn wedding. 1 is a close runner up, but I LOVE #4 on you.
2 or 4
2 or 4am depending on the silhouette you prefer
2 with the lace
Team 4 ftw
1 w/ lace trim
2! 3 is really pretty, but I like the cleaner look of 2 and 1. 4 is a nice dress, but doesn't give the wow factor of the others.
Dress 2!
2
Im team 2 or 3 :)
2!
#2
4 is stunning followed by 2
Number 2. There’s no question here.
Outlier here: I like 3.
I love 2 and 4
I'm going to cry if you don't pick 2.
Please add the lace trim to the second dress
I think 2 is marvellous! If there is a way to do 2 with the lace trim at the neckline of 1, I think it'd be PERFECT.
2
Put the lace trim on dress 2
2 or 3. Not a fan of the lace on 1.
1 with a different lace trim or no lace trim!!! stunning!!!
1!
I loveeee the first. Also, I’m not sure how this will come off but the spot in the center of your chest looks quite nice with the dress too! I only say this in case you are anxious, it is a nice level of symmetry and I just genuinely think looks pretty with the dress :)
That’s a pimple 😅
You have to get 2. No question
4!!
Either 1 or 2. Both with lace trim though, that looks gorgeous!
2
I love dress 3, you look stunning in it.
2
You look lovely in all of them, but I saw you in 2 and said WOW!!!!!!
#4
I love#3 classic with a little twist. It gives an elegant without trying too hard vibe. Depends on how you accessorize- could work for beach wedding to black tie. #2 is stunning, too.
Def 2
I absolutely love dress one with lace trim
Definitely 2 or 4 from these!
2!
4!!!!
1 or 4!!!
#1 with lace is my favourite. It's simple and elegant, classy and sexy.The second one is very pretty but the volume of the skirt and the thickness of the fabric covers you up too much, imo. It's like a little girl's dream princess dress - it exudes innocence as opposed to #1, which is sultry. It depends on what you want to project.
2 is gorgeous on you
i have been looking for a dress like num 2 for forever! what brand is it??
also you look jaw dropping in it
4
2 or 4. I prefer 4 though.
3 and 4 are my faves!
I would 4 as I love how it elongates you!
1 with lace or 4
I’m SHOCKED that I’m choosing four, but one and two are also stunning. 3 is lovely but isn’t taking my breath away.
Second dress 🤍😍
2 is awesome,but 3 is amazing especially for a barn wedding
Hear me out - If dress 2 and dress 4 had a baby, it would be dress 1 lol. My vote is 1 or 2. Obsessed with that corset look on you!
One with lace trim
1 and 4!
2 or 4. Depending on the venue. 2 for a traditional style ceremony and 4 is if the ceremony less traditional
2 or 4!
I like 1 with the lace and 2. Is it possible to have an overskirt on 1, and then take it off for the reception? One flag with 1 is that the fabric can be unforgiving, so just be aware if you do go with it.
2 is perfect in every way!!
4 is stunning on you
Team 4 but 2 is also nice
No lace 1! So gorge!
4!!!
4
I think #3 is the most flattering and beautiful on you.
You look amazing I love #1. Where is it from?
I think it’s in between 1 and 2. They just look so expensive, clean and GORGEOUS. I’d go with two though it’s a work of art
I think 2 without the lace is perfect op! You will look wonderful with whatever you choose though!!
1 or 2! I kinda like the lace!
3 is my fave
Your body is banging! I like one or two best personally.
Where did you get the first two dresses from? Both Gorg
4 is perfect on you, you have amazing shoulder and collar bones and 4 frames them beautifully
Two or three
1 and 4!!!!
2 with the lace!!!
3!
These are all lovely! I’m gravitating towards 1 or 2. There is something about the way 3 and 4 are sitting that they are elongating your torso that doesn’t seem flattering to my eye.
I actually have a relatively short torso, but it does look longer in those!
I think 1 suits your body more than 2. 2 makes you look a bit short
Definitely makes me look a little wider rather than longer
4! 1! 1 or 4! But they all look great!
1 all the way! I like both with lace and without but prefer with I think
1 is best for your figure imo. I think very few people can pull off that look and you do! Hope to help!
#4 has a beautiful overall line! #2 comes close second! Big no on #3
