Saw the Spider-Man 2 midnight showing last night. AWE. SOME.

And now, pictures. They are pictures of a possible wedding dress and I would really like y'all's honest opinions. If you like it, say so, if you don't like it, definitely say so.

This was just a quick photoshoot outside, no real prep, so kindly ignore the socks, sandals, and visible bra. If I do end up using this dress, I would probably get a light crinoline to go under it-- just something to give the skirt its proper fullness, not a big floofy thing. Also, I'm thinking I would convert the neckline to a V-shape, because that high square neckline really doesn't do much for me, and because I have a pendant necklace I want to wear at my wedding. Oh also, I'm contemplating removing the buttbow. It's not really a terrible specimen, but I'm not sure I like it. So. Pictures.

And here's a very crudely Photoshopped pic of what a V-neckline might look like:


Opinions are very, very welcome. The material, for those curious, is a thick matte poly satin, lined in acetate. Not the nicest stuff ever, but no worse than many bridal dresses, and it's actually pretty well-constructed-- lined, serged seams, good sturdy zipper.

The V-neck does help it a lot. The butt bow isn't the greatest, but if you take it off, the back will look more like lattice than the illusion of being laced together.

Personally, I'm not crazy about the dress. It looks a little too frumpy and has a lot of puckers along the seams of the bodice (which could just be the material, I guess). If you added the sheer sleeves from your ideal dress, it could work, however.

In the end, though, it comes down to whether you're happy with the dress (w/alterations, of course), in lieu of one you made yourself. And if you are, that's all that matters. :)
