Have I chosen the wrong wedding dress?!

[Vebar2020]

I'm having a wedding dress freak out.

I bought this mermaid style wedding dress, at the time I loved it...now I'm looking back on the pictures and panicking that I look fat. The more I Google my body shape (rectangle) - the more the Internet tells me to avoid mermaid dresses.

Honest opinions please on whether you like it or not? Do i look fat? Does it suit me?! Aghhhhh. Thanks x

You aren't a rectangle?

That is definitely a defined waist!

 

[CurlsLDN]

Why on earth are you describing yourself as a rectangle body shape?! You clearly have an hourglass figure.

the dress looks lovely, you don’t look fat, this is just normal nerves. If you can go back and try it on again to settle your mind either way

It is beautiful. You look fabulous.

if you are unsure about a particular detail ask the dress maker for her suggestions

It’s lovely and you look great

You don't look fat you have a lovely figure but it isn't lying right across your hips.

 

[Alwayswonderedwhy]

It's lovely and you have a great figure but I'd say it needs altering across your stomach/hips to make it fit properly.

It's a gorgeous dress but I'm afraid it does look a bit tight across your stomach. How long is it until your wedding? Could you either get it let out or better still get the next size up?

I've paid in full but wedding isn't until Feb next year

I think it looks beautiful. Really suits your figure. I agree that it's maybe a tad tight in the tummy area but nothing that can't be sorted by next Feb. Don't stress it's really lovely. Congrats on your wedding

Thank you - and I hadn't noticed that, but quite a few people have mentioned it. Will definitely keep this in mind at alterations time...if I keep it. Gosh!

I think it looks lovely. I had a similar wobble about my dress…I just got married this Tuesday and spent the buildup to the wedding convinced that the dress looked bad. But it didn’t look bad. I felt comfy and confident on the day. It was all nerves at having made this big decision and committed to a dress!
