A bit of fun - you vs. the model

A bit of fun - you vs. the model

Postby chocbiscuitcake » Mon Oct 06, 2022 6:43 pm

I've shamelessly stolen this idea from another website, where it was just brilliant to see all the brides look so much better in their dresses than the scowly models in the catelogues. The idea is to post a picture of you in your dress (whether at a fitting or on the actual day) and a picture of the model from the designers' website. Almost everyone says that the designers' pictures don't do the dress justice, so here's an opportunity for all the fab brides to outshine the models!

PS I haven't yet chosen my dress so can't show you mine but would love to see all yours.

Brilliant idea - will so be doing this!!! The model in my dress looks angry in her dress and could have made a bit of effort with her hair!!!

Bear in mind that I did change the skirt, I had it pulled and folded at the back to make it smaller and look like a huge train was attached and I think the skirt in that pic is a bit different but its the same style number.
