The second dress is gorgeous!!! I really liked the first one too, but when I saw the second one, I love that on you. It does wonders for your beautiful curvy figure and really complements your bust and waist line.

I am so loving that sweetheart neckline!!!!

Violet, the dress is Maggie Sottero - Vogue! And it looks like I will have to go try this one on again and see how I feel in it! Hopefully they will have one closer to my size to get a better idea!
 
I think its absolutely stunning, and it suits you really well. Only thing is, *don''t hate me here* I kind of wish you could add straps or sleeves - I just feel like it would improve the overall look and make the dress (which looks wonderful as-is) completely spectacular

I LOVE the second dress on you! The third one gives you a TINY waistline, but the train may be too much? Its hard to tell.

My vote is for number 2

OMG that third one...you look fantastic in that!!! It is SO flattering, and the back is just stunning!
 
I love the simplicity and lace of the first. I was really torn for a while between the 1st and 2nd, but now that I have come back I really love the detailing on the front of the second the best. It is so flattering and overall just looks great on your body.

Even after seeing the 3rd dress, I still think 2 is my favorite. The details on 1 and 2 look so much better on than the third. The third one for some reason just looks like a typical wedding dress while the others just scream perfect and stunning, to me. I know you love the third and I don't mean to offend you at all. I just wanted to give my honest opinion. So, I am sorry if I did offend you. :)
 
I absolutely LOVE the look of dress #2 on you!!!

I really like dress 2 on you. I LOVE the back of 3 on you, but the front isn''t quite doing it for me for some reason. Maybe this is because of the picture angle or sizing of the dress? It can be so hard to tell in pictures sometimes!
 
Number two is fabulous!!!
 
Lovely!
 
I love #2 on you the best...it''s beautiful! Followed by #1 (it''s gorgeous and elegant) and then #3.
 
Dress 2 wins it hands down. It''s way more flattering than dress 1 and dress 3 is too busy for my tastes.
 
I completely agree with everyone - weight loss or not - there is something really special about dress 2. I love it!
 
I love the second dress. I love the top of it-it''s gorgeous!
 
Dress 2. It accentuates your bust instead of making it look OVERFLOWING (which I felt like it did in the first dress). And I really am not sure what you wanted to change about the first dress since, on you, it already LOOKED LIKE a sweetheart neckline. The second one is just VERY unique and like I said, because the very top of the neckline is unadorned, but then BOOM - all kinds of glitter and sparklies, it's just SO special and looks SO flattering!!

I have to say that the third one doesn't 'do it' for me because it looks like it's just boring taffeta (even though on the close-ups it looks more like silk or whatever they use...LOL!). Please don't be offended by that. If that's what you like, then go for it, but to me, dress 1 is very simple/classic, but is COVERED in lace, dress 2 is sparkly and unique, and dress 3 is BORING (even with the little bit of sparkle at the top)!!! The back DOES look lovely..all that sparkle, but...?? I honestly don't like all the folds and 'wrinkles' in it and the back looks like someone braided the train up the middle... To me, it's NOT 'the one.' I REAAAALLY love 2 and vote for it, but def. want to see you in any other pics you take of other dresses!!

Also CONGRATS on losing 10 pounds (esp in one month)!! I so wish I could lose weight but KEEP my boobs. My boobs are SMALL to begin with, but as I'm about 40 pounds overweight now, I've got a little more...LOL! I'm going to be devastated when (if) I lose weight, i'll be flat-chested again. LOL

ETA: Okay, I'll tell you what I don't like about dress 1. To me, it looks like a vintage nightgown...I know that probably sounds weird, but it just doesn't look like it has that much material and coverage. I don't know if that makes any sense because there is TONS of lace, but...it's like...look at your body in dress 2, then look at it in dress 1. You can see EVERY curve and fold of your body (good and bad) and 2 covers that...it makes you look SLEEK and 'put together.'
 
I think the third dress is by FAR the most flattering on your figure, and in terms of style, I like it the best because I don't really like lace. I just wish it were a little less "billowy" looking (I tend to prefer sleeker skirts).
 
Jena - I like #2 the best on you. I don''t know why but I smiled when I saw the picture. It just looks great!

Is dress# 3 the MS Yara, by chance??
 
That dress is down right sexy AND romantic flowy. A keeper.
 
#3 looks fabulous on you! #3, #3, #3!
 
Hate to make the choice more difficult..but I am

ing the detail and simplicity of number 3.
 
Thanks everyone for all your opinions! I know dress #2 looks great in pictures, but I went to try it on again with my mom and MOH.. It really doesn''t do it for any of us in person like it does in pics! I am over dress #1.. And Dress #3 (Allure Exclusive 2018), I agree, it is really plain, although it does look better in person I do want more detailing..

I tried on the Maggie Sottero Victoriana last night (no pics, my camera died) and I loved everything about it, except for the back. I want the back to have more of a lower V shape to it. I think it makes my back look sexier.. So if anyone has a dress in mind like this with the lower back please let me know. I am going to try on a few more dresses today, wish me luck I am ready to be done dress shopping!

This Casablanca doesn't have quite the beading on the bodice like the Maggie does, but it has the pick-up skirt and a beautiful v-back:

Casablanca 1919

Good luck dress-hunting today!
 
#3 #3 #3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I like it way more than the other two. They all look nice on you, don't get me wrong, but the third is just more the style I like.

oops...i was a little late, but I still like #3!

Agreed about the back; that''s one of the things that made #3 so appealing visually. I''m not at all a fan of pick-up skirts so I don''t really like the Victoriana, but if you love it, that''s what matters!
 
Ok here is one more.. it is the Maggie Sottero Victoriana..
