Trying to find a Red dress...

[chevydevil]

After searching for more months than I can count, I am still can't find a dress like I want. I know more about what I don't want than what I love.

I want to wear an all red or mostly red gown. It can have some black or white on it, but red should be the main color.

We are having a very short & simple ceremony in the same hall as the reception so I want a very informal gown with no train or a small sweep train. I also am not a fan of the large ballgown type skirts.

I'm not a size 2 so I need the structure of a wedding gown in the mid section that bridesmaid's gowns just don't offer.

So best dresses I have seen have come from England/UK but I really don't want to buy something I can't try on first.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Have you been in the same situation? Have you stumbled across any red dresses in your searches?

What I meant was that the dresses with just light fabric over the stomach area show unsightly buldges and you cannot hide a corset under them since they will show the ribbing.

Formal wedding gowns have up to 8 layers of fabric over the bust & stomach and won't show the corsetry.

Thanks for all your help! I actually stumbled across the one form Mary's Bridal today and love it!

My friend has this one from mary's bridal, and it fits her amazingly

Check out the designers Maggie Sottero and Essence of Australia. Both manufacture red dresses in various styles.

Here are some that i thought were awsome, somewhere along the lines of what you were looking for. They are beautiful and very inexpensive. There are a few more dresses on the site. Let me know if you buy any of them. I would like to see pictures of the wedding when it comes around.
