Dress #1is a dress from the late 19th Century. Picture Phantom of the Opera or Jane Eyre...that era respectively. And somehow this never goes out of style. It is sumptuous in it's resplendency of pink silk taffeta, hand sewn lace, box pleat waist, net overlay and double bustle cascade complete with silk peonies and roses. I'd love to wear this for a day. Picture it in white with a whisper of pink with the overlay perhaps. You could, if you are that sort of girl, take this to an atelier and have it emulated. I wish I was that girl...

Caution: your bridesmaids might steal the show! Again, in order to create these gowns you'd have to know a very good couturier and be the kind of bride who is motivated enough to get this customization on track! |

Its a 1950's cupcake dress. On the Flour Clothing Etsy site, it is listed as being a "Peggy Sue Party Dress." If you are sure what your palette might be if you chose a dress like this consider the floating tones from Design Seeds! |
