Plus Size Wedding Gown help!

[AMM2007]

I've talked about how nervous I was in previous posts about picking a wedding gown. Well, I finally went shopping again which lead me to David's Bridal. I had a lot of fun at that store. Here's my problem, I like one dress that is close to $700 and one dress that is $400 bucks of course I like the $700 dress but I can't see myself spending that much for a dress when my budget was only $500 at tops and I really didn't want to spend that much. I also tried on a few others that I'll include.

I'm going to give you the styles I like and tell me which one you think is prettier. My aunt liked the $700 one not b/c how much it was but b/c she said it was so pretty.
Of course I don't expect you to make the choice I just want some feedback!

Thanks agian!:)

Ok, so I voted for 9N8579, but based on my experience. I am also a plus size and not knowing where you compare to me it is a little hard to actually make a fair vote. I think the halter style dresses give a longer and somewhat slimming apearance... ok, so I know it won't make me skinny but it has the continuous look from sholder to floor so it is a little less blocky. However, there are a couple things to remember... we are each different so it is how YOU feel in the dress, and you shold pick the dress that makes you feel like a princess!

Thanks, I know it's hard to pick...too many choices. I think I'm going to have to go again and try them on before I can make a decision.

I really like the 9E8787 better- I too am plus size and I personally am not a fan of strapless gown on plus size figures because it causes a bulge above the chest and back(eww) the halter's were much more flattering on me and when I tried on gowns I was a size 18(now I'm a 14, though). But go with the one you feel best in- I was only going to spend $500 max, but I fell in love with a dress that will cost me over $1000 once the alterations are done but I said this will be a special day and I want to feel special!

I'm such a bonehead! I posted the wrong style number for one of my dresses! I can't believe I did this...however L8555 should be E8475...I realized this while looking at the dresses again. They were next to one another in a catalog I have and I must have transposed them.:o
