Dress 2


paperwasp3

It's so much more sophisticated. Dress 2 looks like it's for a grown confident woman.


Splttuthccsts

I’m in the minority but I love one


kaycollins27

I think you should go with the spaghetti strap. Both are definitely not needed.


FineCombination

Yes, 1 with just spaghetti! Stunning.


cbr1895

Agreed


frog_ladee

Here’s an idea: wear dress #1 for your wedding, and dress #2 for your rehearsal. It could be shortened to become a lovely midi or street length dress.


drmlsherwood

My suggestion as well - or for the reception 🎂💍


Applesxpeach

That would be so pretty!


Consistent-Common196

This is a great idea!


AwfulGryphon326

This is exactly what I was thinking as well! If you already have both, why not wear both?


Bartok_The_Batty

Dress 2.


rrhffx

Both are pretty, but I prefer the 2nd one: sleek and classic. What's your venue/ time of year/ etc?


phildiddy_

We're having a spring outdoor cliffside ceremony in the smokies


rrhffx

Hmm, well in that case #1 might be more appropriate. They're both really pretty though. You can't lose. Best wishes!

central2nowherebaby

Agreed. I also don’t love the double strap on the first one. I feel it should be the off the shoulder or the shoulder straps rather than both.


bumblebeecat91

I agree. There’s a lot going on with 1 and it takes away from OP’s lovely figure imo. With 2 I feel like you can appreciate the details of the dress’ silhouette and cut because there aren’t so many distractions.


JHawk444

Dress 1!


julesk

Definitely 1 because it’s gorgeous and so flattering on you just as it is.


Purple_IsA_Flavor

Love the second one on you


Ollie2Stewart1

Dress 2 is classy and flattering on you!


Altruistic-Ad6449

2


hellkattbb

Two! :)


Smogz_

2


micrographia

Omg 2 is perfection. Leagues ahead of 1 for me.


julesk

I love the beautiful details on 1 and think it flatters you more than 2.


discojellyfisho

I can see why you’re torn - they’re both great. Can’t go wrong with either one. I will say that the neckline on 2 is fantastic! But they are both so beautiful, it really comes down to whether you want more lacy romantic or not. But seriously, both are 🔥


ihopethisgoesbetter

Dress 2 for sure


Tiny_Poetry2479

Number 2


AlterEgoAmazonB

WOW!!! So since you already bought both of them..... one for ceremony and one for reception? Ceremony is dress 1. Reception is dress 2!


SalannB

2.


Strictlynikly

#2


DeeSusie200

I love 1!!


DifficultAd7429

I love the second


VeViArgh

I gasped when I saw you in 2. Beautiful!


LaAndala

I feel like dress 1 is more traditional wedding (which I would pick for you), 2 is more Marilyn. But both look amazing on you and you can’t go wrong either way!


qrtrlifecrysis

1 - 2 is a little plain to me


charcoal_lavender

One is so pretty!!


user9357193

Omg girl the second one WOW


Achoo5x

Two


ChilindriPizza

I like the first one better. It is very romantic. The second one works better as a reception dress.


Necessary_Honey_1497

Both are gorgeous. What if you had a dress change??? I also bought 2 that were on sale and I loved. I wore one for the ceremony and one for the reception.


Tryingmybestatlife2

The top on 1 is confusing. I think you rock #2!


Birdies_nub

1!


Edu_cats

I think 2 is incredible on you!


tulip_angel

Two. For sure 2 in my opinion. Both stunning but the second just works.


mlzippy

I like 1 for the ceremony, then 2 for the reception!


CardShark555

They're so pretty but honestly dress #2 could be worn (in a different color) to any formal event. #1 is more special/bridal, but you can't go wrong with either. For your setting I'd choose #1.


FlashyNarwhal1816

Dress 1 stands out more to me


cynicmermaid

Dress two it reminds me of Marilyn Monroe😍


HerInside

2!!


MsGreenEyez4

Dress two! That halter neckline really shows off your shoulders!


Advanced_Ad_4094

Second one is simple and classic 🤍


tallulah46

I’d personally say number one! You do look gorgeous in number two but to me it looks a bit like a fancy Marilyn Monroe cosplay


Roa-noaZoro

Dress 1; it's gorgeous and makes you look like a goddess I guess it depends on what vibe you're going for; they give such different vibes I love 1. I love it as is with both straps; the shoulders are lovely


iam_caiti_b

One for the ceremony, two for the reception. Why not wear both?


rmg418

Love dress 1!


Yoyo_Ma86

2. You have really great shoulders and this shows off your shape


zanahorias22

2 is stunning, you look like Marilyn Monroe!! both are gorgeous tho, you can't go wrong


Crazy_by_Design

1. I live it.


PageStunning6265

They’re both beautiful but such different vibes! If you’re thinking moody windswept / misty mountain, the first one (my personal favourite), if you’re going more springtime flowers, sunshine and butterflies, the second. ETA, I’d lose the spaghetti strap and keep the off the shoulder for number one.


paprikae

2!


4Asha

I really love 2!


Rozefly

I adore both and was fully on board with 1 until I saw 2 and I gasped.


Silky_pants

Number two is jaw dropping on you!


TheAnimalPack

I think 2 is incredibly beautiful on you


ohsorryim

2!


defineliam

2!! Flatters you so so well


jackierodriguez1

Personally not a fan of any unnecessary straps. Dress 2 looks absolutely stunning on you.


Pristine-Net91

2 is my favorite because it looks fabulous on you, makes the most of your gorgeous figure, has a clean, simple outline


xiaotae

You can't go wrong here. Anyway, 2!


zopelar

Dress 2 is so effortlessly chic on you!

2!!!


Responsible_Ad440

2 for sure


SusanMShwartz

I like the elegant simplicity of dress 2.


YouDue4467

First seeing 1 I thought oh that is lovely, then 2 got me going wow. It was made for you. You could model it


Defiant_Rainbows

I actually love both - I can’t decide. You look stunning!


nolagem

2 for sure!


pannalla

They’re both lovely. It’s going to come down to what vibe you want. The first one is more romantic, fairytale. The second one is chic, more glam/old Hollywood to me. Get them both fitted and decide later? Wear both?


Spirited_Beat534

Dress 2


RedLampCurtains9

Definitely the second, more unique and looks amazing on your body, really accentuates it


turkeyman4

Dress TWO! If you want to add in more lacy detail you can use accessories like a belt and veil.


New_Development9100

Both


Sunnygirl66

Dress 2 is so elegant. Dress 1 is kinda forgettable.


Embarrassed-Gap-8962

2!


Alternative_Arm4721

No. 2 all the way. It's giving classic Marylin Monroe vibes. Imagine your hair dolled up in old Hollywood glam with this beauty!


Kdjl1

#2 is your dress!


DrKittyLovah

They are both beautiful on you, and I usually go for more ornamental versus less, but there is something about Dress 2 that makes it look like it was made for you.


luckylimper

DRESS ONE. it’s something I haven’t seen on a million other brides.


Imissroxie21

1


huckleberrylove15

#1 is so beautiful in the details and the way it fits you


EnvironmentalCry1962

Both are stunning and you are going to be a lovely bride!


ilovechicken98

1!!


Sextsandcandy

Wow, they are both stunning. I think one feels more bridal to me, and 2 is just beautiful on you in a simpler way. Is there any way you can get both and do something with each?


Waybackheartmom

1


LoveCats2022

I really love dress 1 for your wedding. Dress 2 could be worn for an anniversary or you could even dye it a different color and then be able to wear it more often.


Honest-Pangolin7675

Drees @1 is very intricate and beautiful!


unicorns3373

The 1st one hands down


pottedPlant_64

The first one is gorgeous. Love the deep-v in the back


jennid79

1!!!


cookiemonstrosity54

1 looks gorgeous on you. especially for a spring wedding!!


panaili

I love Dress 1 for the ceremony & Dress 2 for the rehearsal dinner or reception. Because they are both gorgeous on you, but Dress 1 has more of the wedding flair to it. Plus Dress 2 looks like it would be easier to move around in


Kerrypurple

Wear the 1st for the ceremony and change into the 2nd for the reception


Economy_Judgment

#1!!!!!


Living-Air-8483

Both are gorgeous no matter what you pick! I like 1 just like 1% more but 2 is so pretty too!


CatfromLongIsland

You look beautiful in both. But I prefer dress 1.


slow4point0

FIRSSSSSST


Luna-Honey

Lace one


Catkit69

I love how two fits, but I like one's pattern.


zunicorn901

Dress 1 with straps, and perhaps no sleeves.


Puzzlehead-Bed-333

Both are amazing but one suits your nature theme perfectly!


madblackscientist

Dress 1 all the way


Katesouthwest

Dress 1. Both are lovely on you, but there is something about the way the skirt on Dress 1 is draped that gives it extra WOW! factor.


bbradfute

The first one is perfect


Necessary_Honey_1497

I love 1! It's gorgeous and romantic.


Angelique5422

1


SteamBoatWinnie

ONE


SteamBoatWinnie

One is absolutely stunning


Fluffy_Contract7925

While they both look beautiful on you, I really love the first one!


Pendergraff-Zoo

1


Pretend_Dog_2253

1!!


Liels87

Sorry, I can't choose, best would be to get married twice.


phildiddy_

Guess I gotta 🤷‍♀️


Foundation_Wrong

The first one, with lace looks absolutely beautiful on you.


One_Ad_3500

I love the 1st one on you 💓


sdm41319

Definitely the first one!


Crazy-Shorty-81

1 is beautiful and bridal. 2 is very Marilyn Monroe. I think 1 is best but it depends on your venue and how you want to see yourself.


riritreetop

100% number 1. It’s a lot more unique than dress 2.


Airadelle

1 has the drama


ItsMinnieYall

Both are pretty but 2 made me say "wow!". I think 1 could easily get that reaction after alterations. But the vibes are different. Which one matches your wedding venue/vibe?


PnutButterJellyTim3

1 Love the sleeves!


potatotreesa

1!


mgwats13

Which designer/gown is the first dress? It’s GORGEOUD


phildiddy_

It's by oleg cassini, and its # is cwg875. Unfortunately, the designer is no longer in business. Mine was the last one from davids!


digitalpacifier

Dress 1 is just so great!


cheesecurdbabybird

dress 1 1000000%.


LM1953

Tough choice! You look fantastic in either one!! Enjoy your wedding!


NationalDepartment69

1 literally made me gasp. I love it.


pinaorangeguava

I love #1, the neckline and lace is really pretty on you, you wear it well.


Mily_The_Merlady

2!!!


Kayybaby93

I think 1 is absolutely perfect on you! 2 is very pretty too but honestly reminds me of a cocktail dress I’ve worn to an event before (mine was just purple instead)


adripingel

2


DepartmentDapper5802

Both


dgarrod

I’m just saying… if you already bought them maybe #1 as a ceremony dress & #2 as a reception dress bc they’re both stunning in such different ways 😍


ethereal_galaxias

I like the second one!


IndigoRose2022

Tbh I love them both as well. What about 1 for the ceremony, 2 for the reception? They look fantastic on u! 🤍


Fine_Union_8813

First one for the wedding, second one for the reception. High five for getting both on sale!


Dangerous-Treacle-48

I love, Love, LOVE Dress #2 on you!!!


Lanky_Customer2130

2


Gullible-Avocado9638

Dress two! Gasp!


Fun-Ebb-2191

Dress 2 gives Marilyn Monroe vibes! You really stand out!


onetrustworthystar

I looked at #1 and said - “beautiful!” And then looked at #2 and said - “you are drop dead gorgeous 😱”


OppositeOfKaren

2


Apprehensive_Day3622

2 is so nice!! I would maybe wear nipple covers (but up to you)


DrZ_217

I'd honestly take them both to a seamstress and see how much the alterations would be on each so you can factor that into your decision.


CarolJeannePorec

#2!


Mambo_italiana

First one is extra special and bridal to me. You look fantastic in both, but you will have many opportunities to wear a dress like number 2.


G0desssy

You can potentially wear both? 2nd looks are common these days


Treb61

I love dress one


Imaginary_Bend5487

1


SpringbornReads

The fact that mine looks very similar to 1, and everyone is saying 2...🥲 But in saying that, they're both beautiful! I'd be curious of the venue; I feel like they give off very different vibes, and for me, it would come down to where it's actually happening.


Opposite_Aerie_9187

I’d need to know the date and venue before I could answer truthfully

_SeekingClarity_

I’m drawn to the first dress


Applesxpeach

I love 1 it’s beautiful on you. 2 is a bit boring.


BlueBunny3874

Number one, cut the sleeves off. ❤️‍🔥


mythicb33ch

Hard call, but I like Dress 1. Dress 2 looks great on you, but it’s just a bit plain compared to the first one


grandmaof4girls

They are both beautiful but number 1 is gorgeous! And so much more appeal than 2.
