White by Vera Wang for Davids Bridal

I cannot say how excited I am by this. I am a HUGE Vera Wang fan and am so thrilled that her dresses are now "affordable" for the average person!!!!!

There's a David's Bridal near my office, so I've seen the dresses on mannequins. The dress in the last picture looks really really stiff--it looks like they used cheap chiffon on the dresses.

...and now Anthropologie is doing bridal now as well.

^^^Ditto. Saw the dresses in person and they are pretty sad compared to the photos.

These are in the window at the DB in the mall by my parent's house. I echo everyone's sentiments. LOL.

I think we have the winner:



Like the other dresses I posted, the picture does not do it justice AT ALL. (And if I may be cocky for a moment, I thought it looked better on me than on the model )

Also, here's the close-up:



And the back:



The designer is Demetrios.

If I go with this, I am customizing it a bit. I am going to get rid of the beading under the bust and replace it wither a beaded rhinestone belt at the waist. I think waist belts on dresses look extremely flattering.

That dress is gorgeous! I do like the look of the beaded belt on a wedding dress, too.

And so, the magic of photography has won again.

So, I met Randy from Say Yes to the Dress today. Although it stresses me out like crazy, there's times where I really love my job.

YES! I went up to him and introduced myself. I said I was really excited to meet him and before I could even finish my sentence he gave me a hug. He was so awesome!
