rehearsal dinner dress

my FMIL bought her rehearsal dinner dress.. its in her favorite color purple, but only on the top, the rest is black from underneath the bust down. anyways ive been on the hunt for a dress for myself and i found this one online that i really love:http://www2.victoriassecret.com/commerce/onlineProductDisplay.vs?namespace=productDisplay&origin=onlineProductDisplay.jsp&event=display&prnbr=EF-193557&cgname=OSKEYCLOZZZ&rfnbr=2201it comes in a lot of colors, but my favorite one is the purple! im really close to my FMIL but would it be weird to kind of match?? i want to stay away from black and white and go for a more bright color... the only other one i might consider is the cobalt blue but idk just wanted to get opinions if it would be bad to get the purple one?? thanks! in advance :o)

    That's a hot dress!  I like it best in the navy for myself, but my chest is too large to pull that off.    *blushing*

    That's a nice dress.  I like your idea of the navy w/ white cardigan & white shoes.  Have you tried the dress on yet?  I'm kinda small up top too & sometimes have trouble w/ VS.  Is your FMIL's dress the same shade of purple as the color here?  I don't think it would matter if you were both wearing purple.

    First of all, I clicked the link before I read the entire post...and all I saw was FMIL wearing....so I thought that she was wearing this dress...I thought woah....your FMIL could pull this off!! I want to meet her haha Anyways! I love this dress, its really sexy but still classy. The idea of it with the cardigan sounds great, no matter what color. Im a big fan of that look anyways, it always classes it up for an affair like this. You could do the white cardigan and your white shoes no matter what color dress you decide on. The blues are really great, the purple however I dont think would be weird at all. If you want to get that then go for it! On a side note, if you end up getting this, I want to know how it fits because I really want this dress however I have curves....a bit more than the VS model haha, so Id like to know how they run. GL!
