Which of these wedding gowns looks better?

Question

My wedding is next May and I'm trying to pick a dress that looks truly stunning. I'm not into plain dresses at all - the more extravagant, the better. I just want people to be amazed at how I look that day. Either of these dresses looks great on my figure, so which dress do you think looks better? I want to make an entrance!

Here is the first dress, by Maggie Sottero:

Answer 1

The Cassini

Answer 2

FIRST

Answer 3

Both gowns are beautiful - but I really love the first one by Maggie Sottero. I thnk it's very elegant and I love the neckline. But, definitely be sure to try them on. How it looks on the model and how it looks on you can be very different.  

Answer 4

LOVE LOVE LOVE THE 1ST ONE

Answer 5

For sure number one.

The second one looks like something got caught under your dress and are dragging it down the isle.

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!

I love the first dress.  It's absolutely stunning.

Good luck.

Answer 9

Answer 10

the first one.Very elegant.You'll look stunning.The second one is kinda buuu from the bottom.I'm not feeling a wow reaction from people.

Answer 11

The first one is BEAUTIFUL! if you can pull that off, girl, your man wouldn't be able to take his eyes off you (not that he wouldn't in any other gown...) gorgeous! CONGRATS!

Answer 12

I love the Maggie gown!

It is really beautiful and you just can't beat the kind of quality you get from a Maggie gown.

Answer 13

i would have to say the first one.

buut its your wedding and your choice so please pick what you like best.

:)

Answer 14

the first one is the most stunning. the second is kind of blah with a little ok. i say go for the first dress.

good luck!

Answer 15

I LOVE the second one, it seems more stunning to me. Both are great choices though.  

Answer 16

i like the first one better, because it is more fitted, and i like the trumpet, or mermaid bottom. the second one is okay, not really my taste, but they  are both beautiful good luck

Answer 17

The first one definitely!!

Congratulations! =]

Answer 18

the first one!

Answer 19

I like the first one, but remeber that when you sit down this style of dress is a pain in th a** because it is so tight around the body and hips, when you get fitted sit down so you are sure you can do that the day of your wedding!

Answer 20

The Maggie is the more stunning of the two...You can nevr go wrong with a Maggie Sottero!

Answer 21

I really like the silhouette of the 1st one.  Plus I've always liked those really ruffly gowns, but I am way to short to pull it off.  If you can then go for it because that gown is breath taking!

Answer 22

I love the first one.  It's amazing.  The second one just doesn't look as well-made as the one from maggiesottero.

Answer 23

The first one (Maggie Sottero) is a lot better. I think you should go with that one. Congragulations on your wedding day!

Answer 24

The first one is amazing, however, unless you have a body like the model (small to no butt and hips) it could make you look very large.  The second gown is beautiful and much more figure friendly.  So, check out your butt :)

Answer 25

I think the Maggie Sottero is more elegant and stunning.  I don't particularly like the line of the Cassini dress.

However I have to say that I was certainly not expecting something like those when you said you want to 'make an entrance'.  They are both kind of standard wedding dresses - nothing unique that would make them stand out for me.  But by the same token I am sure you will look lovely in either dress - I just don't quite see how you will 'make an entrance' in those dresses compared to a more unique style.... just my opinion.

To show you what I would call a 'statement' dress here are some in similar styles that just seem to do a bit more for me than the dresses you have chosen...

I especially like these last two!  But don't get me wrong - I love both dresses you have chosen - I just wouldn't personally say they were unique or ready to make a statement, thats all.

But remember - you are going to 'make an entrance' anyway - you are the bride after all!!!  So you don't need to listen to my ramblings!  If you like those two dresses which you obviously do then my vote is definately for Maggie and I am sure you will look just stunning.

Answer 26

FIRST!!!

Answer 27

They are both entrance-worthy.

The second one is a stronger statement, but not in a good way.

The first is much prettier, I think you should go for that one.

Answer 28

I like the Sottero
