Alternatively, I also really love the Melissa Sweet Natalie.

That is my dream dress as well

 

[sammyj]

I get to wear my dream dress which I''m super excited about! It''s the Melissa Sweet Fern...I discovered it while I was still lurking on PS last summer (and about 7 months before getting engaged) and bought it pre-owned through Craigslist. Link to my thread in BWW.

Here is the Moniquw Lhuillier: Claire on oncewed.com. It is very similar to your "dream dresses" . Maybe this is obtainable for someone on PS!

MsCushion - I LOVE your taste! I want lace and some kind of cap or short sleeve! Gorgeous dresses!

Why, thank you!

They''re all so lovely!!! SammyJ, lucky girl!!!!
Here is my dream dress:
Jim Hjelm

 

[BlueSki231]

I''m not quite sure who made this dress or if it''s still available since these two got married a longggg time ago.. but I want something exactly like her dress...

no lace
no puffyness
no beading

.... just a simple non-embellished satin/silk sheath.

I hate ''stuff''

So then what kind of dress DO you want Elle?

 

[Lauren8211]

Well I like the style of this one by Nicole Miller, but not necessarily the fabric.

 

[Lauren8211]

I dig this one, too. Jim Hjelm

 

[jcarlylew]

would you believe that i haven''t picked out one yet?
not even a style!!

although i LOVE Winks Elf''s dress. I might try to wear my moms if i can get it professionally cleaned, dyed ivory and hemmed.

Oooooh- sooo pretty! I love anything and everything Nicole Miller. Her wedding dresses make me want to have a beach wedding so badly as they seem so perfect and romantic.

I know! When I browse for wedding dresses, I tend to hit up the "Destination Wedding" section. I''m not having a DW, but I like the styles. I''m a simple girl style-wise.

 

[Bia]

You''re right, we do have similar taste.

 

[dragonfly411]

So far this is the closest I''ve found to my ideal. But I''ve got to be honest. I''m in love with like 10825028201832 dresses currently. But I have this recurring dream of a garden wedding where I''m in a dress that has fitted top with lace, and the bottom has these whispy parts that flow as I walk......

haha...you ladies are hilarious! Awesome is definitely NOT the word I would use for my rack.

If I had a smaller chest, I''d totally be into the types of dresses Namaste, elle, and Bia are talking about...I''m very much a simple gal except I didn''t want a satin-y fabric...and I''d love to go bra-less too (ahem...Bia!).

 

[Blackpaw]

Namaste that dress was by Narcisco Rodriguez!

SunnyD: I see.. i''m not the most knowledgeable person about dresses. Thanks for clearing up my question! I hope their 2008 styles will be a little cheaper... isn''t pronovias pretty expensive? I''ve tried searches for prices but that''s another thing i''m not so good at! ha

No prob!

I don''t think they''re that expensive, but I was seriously considering selling a kidney for my Lazaro at $4000.

I also got mine 1/2 off because it was a 2007 and they were clearing out for the new styles. So you can always get lucky!

Mine was originally $1579, and it''s a lace-fest. If you look at preownedweddingdresses.com at the Pronovias section, you can get an idea because the brides list the price they paid for it.

 

[Feralpenchant]

I am not a fan of white, and my wedding will be anything but traditional. THIS is my dream dress. I''m 5''3" so I doubt I could pull it off.

If this dress came in chocolate/white instead of red/white, I''d sell my soul for it. It''s Maggie Sottero as well.

 

[Brown.Eyed.Girl]

I love this Pnina. This dress would be the only reason I buy from Kleinfeld''s.

 

[Brown.Eyed.Girl]

Also this Jim Hjelm!

OMG this is to die for! GORGEOUS! Me wantsy! Oy that is just amazing! Makes me want to have a winter wedding! SBA771, I am soooo jealous!

 

[NCSUchick27]

I think this Monique Lhuillier is my dream dress. I love the sash and the lace, but would probably want it in white.

I hate 'stuff'

Just lurking over here today (can you tell it's finals week?!?!) and saw this. Elle, I am totally with you, girl. And I love the two dresses you posted.

I am custom-designing my gown cause I can't find anything that quite fits the bill (love the DW gowns but getting married in a cathedral with a ballroom reception, and need something a bit more substantial). I just posted new sketches on BWW - your input is greatly appreciated! Especially since you "get" michigan winters (wedding is in Jan.)

Also, side note, aren't you graduating this year from EMU??

ETA: Sorry for the total thread jack! Back to posting pretty dresses!

 

[gwendolyn]

My dream dress would probably be this Anne Barge--I like simple designs too, but with just an extra little something. I want bell or poet sleeves on my dress, although if I was miraculously able to get this dress, I don''t think I want to mess with it, so I''d probably look for some sort of antique-y shawl to go with it.
