What do you guys think of this dress?

[gtn]

As some of you might know, I am looking for the Maggie Sottero AD1001 but I haven''t been able to find it to try it on. My runner up is this Maggie Sottero Sierra

So my question is this, do you think I should hold out for the first dress or just bite the bullet and buy the Sierra?



I''m sorry I don''t have a better picture of me in the dress.

It''s pretty. But then you have a lovely figure and I think that a ton of gowns would look amazing on you, so of course it looks lovley. It''s not wowing me though, the dress itself.

Its a lovely dress, but I would keep trying to find the one you loved first.... you might try it on and not like it, but its best to see.

I would try and find the one that you love also. As Gypsy said, you have a great figure and that dress isn''t showing it off properly. The AD1001 is beautiful

I agree with everyone else. I like both dresses, and if your heart''s set on the first one, I''d wait a bit and see of you can find it somewhere.

I really like the other Maggie Sottero (the one you''re looking for). I would keep looking to see if you can find it. HOWEVER, the style and shape of this one is so similar, you could probably bite the bullett and order the dress unseen if you love it, expecting it to fit similarly to the one you have on.

Wow you look amazing in that Sierra. I think if you stopped shopping now, you''d be a total knockout at your wedding. However, there''s nothing wrong with continuing to look. Try to find the other Maggie, just so you have something to compare. Whichever one you pick, I''m sure you''ll look awesome.

Gypsy, Maisie, Bee, Zoe, Misysu, Crown - Thank you all for your comments.

I want to wow gypsy so I guess I will give it another whirl looking for the AD1001. I don''t know if I could buy the AD1001 sight unseen. I can''t even buy clothes online unless I know how it will fit or if I know I can return it. Add to that, I''m cheap so i can''t bring myself to spend so much money on both dresses if I find I don''t like it. On a brighter note, I read on the Maggie Sottero testimonial page for the AD1001 that the dress was purchased at a salon for $700. Much cheaper than the $1100 I was quoted for the Sierra. And a whole lot cheaper than the Amsale dress I tried on at other salons.

Man if only I could find both for $1100, then it would be no harm no foul. Right?

Of course!

I agree with all the others. It looks great on you from what I can see but also try on your first love so there are no regrets.

I would start looking regionally for your Maggie, then. I had similar issues finding my Casablanca in the store, and I eventually had to drive one and a half hours to try it on, then I ordered it from a local store that didn''t carry it. It was worth it. FIELD TRIP TIME!
