There was a show on awhile back called Amsale Girls, that I enjoyed. About a group of women that worked for an upscale bridal boutique. I saw one dress that I absolutely loved, but can't find anything like it online.

I like unique dresses that I don't think are very popular with most brides to be.

Sculptural, flowing ones with lots of layers and drama.

I do NOT like sparkles, or anything bedazzled. Not a huge fan of lace or anything too classic or too "girly".....I know - it's a wedding dress but i mean, nothing too princess or pageant pretty.

Will try to find some examples


I love lace and appreciate the craftsmanship of beading (especially by hand), but I don't like dresses that are too prom-ish or, as you say, "pageant".

Somehow, I already knew I would like T's selections. I wonder if it's because I like your art that I like your taste in stuff?

These are my favorite ones:

And I'm with ghani in not liking white wedding dresses.

Will have to dig up some other ones online.

Yes! That was me
I had a simple dress but perfect for the beach and I paid less than $600 for it which is a steal as far as wedding dresses go. There were many many others that I loved in the pictures but 90% of dresses do NOT look the same when you try them on yourself

I like Vera Wang! I almost tried this one on but I needed a size 12 and they only went up to size 10.

Yin & ghani,

Yeah, I also really like the colored dresses. But I do love white too - in general, not just a wedding dress.

I could see both of you in either one of those Vera Wang gowns.

Just FYI, my Avast displayed this warning when I clicked on this thread, the source apparently being one of the pix (obviously the pic that set off my Avast should not be clicked):

I really like vintage/vintage inspired. I know, it's all too popular now.

My favorite style is vintage lace. I want that and have been looking.. I want something that's similar to some of the last few lacy dresses on this thread. I like the look of more dramatic and colorful dresses, but deep down, I want the simple romantic look of lace.

I love the classic style too, especially vintage lace. I saw the perfect dress when I was 16 in an antique store. I think it was from the 1940s, made from satin or silk. If the day ever comes, I know that my dress won't come close to it because it was the one. Lol.

I'm like you, I love fashion so I love weddings.

I hate "typical" wedding dresses but I also hate tackiness. I don't like non traditional colors (but a little color is okay). I would never pick a dress if it looks basic (basic as in typical). I hate strapless dresses and ball gowns because I feel like every biddy goes for that kind of dress. Boring. I also think mermaid gowns are tacky (I can just picture Kim Kardashian going for that), but SOME of them can be nice.

I love long trains, long sleeves, empire waists, etc.

I do love that Elie Saab dress you posted, it's saved to my wedding pinterest lol. I also love this one:

I like how the skirt is crisp and clean to contrast with the busy top.

This is another favorite:

I'm short so I feel like this would give the illusion of height. Plus it's different.

In a dream world, I'd wear Givenchy Haute Couture:
