Please help ID these Maggie dresses

[MustangGal]

Hello all!

I''m helping my friend''s daughter plan her wedding, and today we ventured out to a Bridal Show. It was a zoo, but we did have some luck with a couple dresses she liked. They are both Maggie Sottero (I checked the tags), but I believe they are both discontinued. I didn''t see either of them on the Maggie web site. She has no problems buying second hand or from a 2 dress bride, so I would like to figure out what the names are for these 2 dresses incase she wants to go for one of them.

Thanks!

1st one

The first one had a medium length train, and the solid beading continued along the lace-up back, with some scattered beads on the middle of the train.

2nd one- It had a shorter train, and beads scattered on it also.

The 1st looks like Dion to me...did it have a floral type pattern to the beading, and some beading like the ones at the waist down the train?

the 2nd I''m not sure on.

I just looked up Dion, and it's close, but Dion has a line of beads all the way down the front and the back, this one didn't, it only had the scattered beads. It's definatly the closest though, thanks!

This one looks like the second dress...

It''s hard to tell, the picture is pretty small. Too bad it''s not the right size.

Hmmm... it seems odd to me that they would be showing discontinued dresses at a bridal show. Usually they bring out all the new stuff. Have you tried looking at the Maggie Brides section on the website? Some of those dresses have been discontinued, but they have them up and suggest "similar" (they''re never very close in my opinion) styles.

Is it possible that these dresses are NEXT season''s dresses, and thus not on the website yet? It seems odd to me that they would be showing old dresses at the show. The whole point of the show is to make sales, so it would make sense that they would show new stuff.

I''m pretty sure they are discontinued models, they were marked 50% off, and the tags had "no orders" written on them, I think they were old samples or something. It wasn''t one of the nicer gown booths, it was shoved in near the back of the displays, no where near the other gown booths. I''ll check out the brides section like Robie suggested, I might be able to find them there.

Thanks Robbie! I found the first one in the "Brides" section

It''s Michelle, which, of course, is my name!

Now it''ll be easier to find them if she decides she wants one. I think we''ll to a salon and try on some more Maggies first.
