Which Dress do you prefer?

I am having trouble choosing which dress for my bridesmaids. I am having a formal winter wedding. Thankfully all of my bridesmaids like both dresses, and they are all on board with just choosing 1 dress to wear. Which one goes better with my dress?

    This is interesting.  I thought that first dress was the one you thought would be competing with your own.  Personally, I think it's prettier than the second, and more likely to flatter a range of shapes, but it's definitely up to you and your ladies.  I think they both go nicely with your dress, so I wouldn't worry about that.  And I don't think there's any problem with either dress competing with yours.

    ETA: Screwed the original up a little.

    Both are pretty but I prefer the first over the second. The lace complements your dress.

    Well the second dress has the exact same shape as your dress, even down to the key hole back, so if it were me I would pick the dress that has a differing shape from the wedding dress.  So out of the two I would pick the first one.

    I like the second one.

    I think the second one would be easier to alter into a short dress after the wedding (so it's re-wearable).

    I like both, but I agree that the first one is better for your bridesmaids because it complements the lace in your dress without being the same shape/style as your dress. Silly question, is the color shown for the BM dresses the color they will be for your wedding? Just to get a little better picture of which dress looks nicer in the color you've chosen is all.

    I think the first one is more interesting than the second.  Niether look like something many people would use again, so that doesn't matter.  I am also just not a fan of the shape of the second dress.

    I do like them both but the first just seems that little bit nicer.  Also gorgeous wedding dress!

    I like the one-shoulder dress better.

    The first one is way prettier. The second looks a little boxy and awkward.

    I like the first one. I think it's more unexpected, and I'm a little tired of very plain chiffon dresses. I also think chiffon better lends itself to lighter colors.
    If the girls want to hem the first dress after the wedding, it would make a STUNNING cocktail dress, which also gives it more points from me.
