Answer 1

the last one

Answer 2

I like the 3rd one the best. It would be the most flattering on all body types. The 4th one is my second favorite. The 2nd one would be unflattering on someone with a small bust or a large bust and not drape well if the person didn't have a perfectly toned body. The 1st one is nice but isn't really designed to have a ribbon around the waist because there is not a defined waist.

Answer 3

I think this is very pretty and it would be pretty nice for late september if weather is permitting. I know here in late Sept it should still be warm enough so no I think this looks really nice and has a gorgeous flow to it. You might want to add some kind of jewlery to the hair to make it look a little more formal but that is optional!

Answer 4

they are are very nice and it depends on what your bridesmaids like.

I like the one with the scarf/stole least, just becasue that's something the women will need to fuss with. I would prefer not strapless, just so nobody needs to worry about falling out of their dress. That leaves the one with spaghetti straps as my favorite. I love the sash up high under the bust. Very chic.

Answer 5

I think that both the second and third look great. It's a reall hard choice but i like the third more then second. But u know if can't choose ur bridesmaids could all just wear different dresses.

Answer 6

I like the last one the best, it's very easy to picture the look you're going for since those are the colors you want, just reversed.

but you should make sure all of your bridesmaids are going to look good in something strapless and that it's something they are going to be comfortable in. I know it's YOUR wedding, but that way the whole wedding party will look good in your pictures and not look uncomfortable and having to pull up their dresses the entire evening.

Or you should see if there is way someone can add thin straps to it like in one of the other dresses for those who aren't comfortable going totally strapless

Answer 7

I think you should let the bridesmaids pick which one they each prefer since you like them all and give each a white ribbon sash or white shawl. They will be more comfortable and have a better chance to let their personalities shine but still maintain the pulled together look you want for pictures.

Answer 8

I think that it is most important, although it is your day, to consider the body type of your bridesmaids. Its hard to find one dress which will compliment everyone. At my wedding i gave my maids a choice of 3 dresses, and i picked the color.

Answer 9

I like 3 and 4...but the better question, why not ask your bridesmaids? I'd much rather let my girls pick because then they can't complain about how they don't like it later, or they can simply feel the most beautiful b/c they picked it!

Answer 10

I like #2 because it is regular bra friendly (no one has to go buy a strapelss or pay to have the cups sewn in) and because not everyone has the upper chest-under arm area tht is suitable to a strapless dress.
