African American Weddings

crapperjacks!

Well one of my bridesmaids went to try on her BM dress. In her size it fits everywhere BUT IN THE STOMACH...literally the dress sags off her. 

The dress is $126 and by time the alterations lady got done telling her how much they were going to be she could buy another dress at that same price.....plus the store said that I chose a dress from the early late 2010 line or the early 2011 line I can't remember and that it will probably discontinue soon....soooo I found another dress but its $200 freaking damn dollars...I just love it sooo much though and ITS A 2013 dress...So no worries about it being discontinued!
I figured my MOH's could wear ivory under the black lace and my BMs could wear all black..what do you all thing

  • I love the dress.... my moh and bm dress is 170.00.... that dress is good long and even if they cut it short.. Very cute.. And I like the two tone

  • Very cute...ensure all of your bridesmaids would be comfortable wearing a dress like that. Also because the back of the dress is that low...think about the fact that they will have to buy special bras and not sure how it would work for someone with bigger tatas:-)

    </div><div>To be honest the first one doesn't look like it is that low at the back? Do you have a back view? I bought a Goddess bra which is pretty low and that thing was still not low enough for my dress. I had to go braless...These dresses always don't seem THAT low until you actually try it on.
