What does your dream dress look like?

Question

Hi all!! I was just wondering, just to hear everyone's opinions, what does your dream dress look like? Pictures are awesome but just text is fantastic as well. So, spill ladies, what is your dream wedding dress?

Answer 1

I don't have a picture of it because it hasn't been made yet; but I have already designed it and my mom is going to start working on it once my sister's wedding is over (she's making her dress too).

It will be an all-over ivory lace, mermaid silhouette gown with an empire waist and little cap sleeves in lace as well (think Elizabeth Bennett from the AE Pride and Prejudice mini-series). The bottom, where it puffs out will be really puffy and exaggerated, and the train will be just longer than a typical chapel length.  At the empire waist there will be a dark pink velvet "ribbon" about 1-2 inches wide with a formed (not tied) bow at the back.  Starting at the top of where the volume of the skirt begins (it is a mermaid style skirt, so at or just below the knees) there will be another formed bow in pink velvet.  Then there will be two more below that in the middle and then at the base of the train (like in a line down the centre of the train).  Those two will be detachable so that when the train is bustled they will not be on the dress.

The bustle will start behind the knees with the velvet bow at the top centre, and the train will be folded so that it hangs straight with side pleats down the back of my legs.

It's kind of hard to describe, but I've worked out the design with my mom, and I can't image walking down the aisle or dancing my first dance in any other dress.  I will definitely post pictures in a few months when it's under construction.

I was going to have two dresses (one for the ceremony and one without a train for the reception) but after I designed this one for the reception, I love it so much (and the look of the mermaid style bustle) that I wanted it to have a train and wear it the whole day.

I wish that I could even post some of my sketches of it (my description does not do it justice) but they are just pencil drawings and sample fabrics tacked to a board at this point.

Well, I'm not sure. We have already decided that we are going to have a Brewers wedding (big baseball fans)... I'm not sure what kind of dress would go with that. But I obviously want it to be white, strapless, and with lots of sparkles! Maybe I could have a blue and yellow flower in my hair (Brewer colors), and maybe the sparkles could have a blue undertone. I want the dress to be long and full but not too poofy or anything. I am not to particular...I am more excited about being with the man of my dreams than what the dress looks like.

A blood red cocktail dress, that has interesting layers. I can picture it but it's hard to explain. And with either colorful playful jewelry and stilettos, or silver jewelry and flats.
