Help me pick a dress

louisvillebride21

Ok, we're going to a super fancy restaurant for our 1 year in Chicago. I'm wanting to do the 1940's look. I cant' decide if I want to go the slim and sexy or the bigger 'party dress'. I'm not as tiny as these models, so I need spanx and prayers lol. Help?


Hedi

Ava

Ruby Red

Black and Pink

I have the following shoes that I would/could wear






These are actually a gunmetal/grey shoe

Or my wedding shoes

I like the first 2 and the first shoe. Would the dresses be in red?

I really like the 1st one!  I am guessing you will be more comfortable (i.e. less Spanx needed) in the first two options.  LOVE the shoe with the polka dots for the red dress, or black shoes with green one.

To me, the first dresses also look more formal (probably because they have more structure).

I LOVE the Heidi dress w/the polka dot shoes!

louisvillebride21

The first one, yes. The second one comes in green and red. Not sure which one I like better. The green is different!

DramaGeek

I like this one

Yeah, actually I take it back, I like the first one with the polka dot shoes. The second one is really pretty but I am just not sure if it is the look you are going for. I do not think the others are fancy enough.

Holy crap, do Heidi's boobs come with that dress?  

My favorite is the Ruby Red dress, with the polka dot shoes.  

louisvillebride21

Can I wear the first red dress again?

ahhhitsshannyn

I love how the second one has that funky sash, and if you wore that one in red you would be a show stopper!!! I do not think you could go wrong with either of those 2.

What's sad is I have those boobs! She just has zero waist so it looks stupid big.

I definitely think you could wear it again.  It's all about accessories, dressing it up or down, but I think it could work for a party or a nice night out that's not your anniversary if you were in the mood to look sexy :)

If it were me, I would wear it all the time. I love to dress up and have "themes" so I have a similar dress as the first one and wore it when we had a party at my house and loved to play the wonderful hostess. I could be just crazy though :)

laurenclaire1386

Heidi's tits are too big for life. Whoa. But I like the dress
ETA: I should've been more specific, I like Heidi, her tits and her dress, but I am IN LOVE with the green one. In love.

louisvillebride21

Lol not crazy. I'm obsessed with the 40s-look at my sig pic! Our whole e-pic 'theme' was the 40s

louisvillebride21

Yeah, she has a 36 DDD bust. But only a 27" waist!

FutureMrsFezz

I like the first dress and the polka dot shoes.

louisvillebride21

I found Hedi's modeling profile. And now I feel like a lesbian perv because I'm obsessed with her now.

Beachy730

I do think the first dress is really cute, it just doesn't look realistic with her huge boobs and itty bitty waist.  My favorite is still the 3rd, but that's just because it's more my style.  

LisaChris2011

I like the Heidi.  Don't know your body figure 100% though.  The shoes will go well with it.  I'm sure whatever you wear you'll look fab.

louisvillebride21

I love the third one too, I'm just afraid it's not fancy enough for this dinner. I would wear that dress to a normal 'nice' date I think.

opalsky007

Numero uno, with the first shoe.

Don't do spanx and a prayer. I can't tell you how uncomfortable I was eating dinner at our wedding. You want to enjoy that awesome meal!

Ciaram22

I love the first one with the polka dot shoes.

louisvillebride21

I think we have a consensus! First dress with the polka dot shoe!

I did Spanx at my wedding and was fine. But it was more for smoothing out than sucking in. I've gained quite a bit of weight since then, so I'm sure it would be a much different experience.

I agree with LC... I love the green one!

DramaGeek

I hate that model and her 27 inch waist.

Also, DNB I'd be happy to share some boobage with you.  Mine are so big that I've had multiple people comment on how big they are.  Like, random people in a store.  Mortifying.

FutureMrsTR

Drama - her 27" waist is probably courtesy of a corset and some generous photoshopping.

barbie92

I really like the second one!

Ciaram22

My boobs are huge and I just can't wait until my milk comes in because they will probably get even bigger.

I think #1 would look best on your body figure. I LOVE necklines like that. It's my goal to lose enough weight to fit into a dress like that.
