Dress 1002D, click to enlarge and see a front view. Does it only look good because the model has a nice bum???

I like it. Is this a possible for your wedding dress 2frus? The detail in the back is nice and it looks very classy from the front. The bow even looks nice without being too "princessy".

Oh and thanks, you've given me another site to browse through when I should be working .

That is BEAUTIFUL! About the bum thing - I don't think it would look good on anyone with a BIG bum or someone who is pear shaped because the bow might draw attention to. Stunning dress though - definitely the best on that page.

I was just getting all pissed off with the fact that there are no nice wedding dresses out there that I can find, and I found this, and it's along the road from work! Lucky me!

I don't want a strapless meringue... Tried finding a non-strapless non-meringue wedding dress? Why would I want to look like every else????

Oh and the place does a cape too... I like that idea since it will be winter. The cape is £450 That's more than the dress!

I think my bum would look ok... As long as my back was behaving itself and not having a "let's swell up and hide all Frus's nice muscle definition" moment! (I have a dodgy disk at the base of my spine that likes to puff out when it's not feeling well!)

The only thing you could do would be to avoid doing anything to agravate (sp?) it for the week before your wedding.

We've booked a signal box in Scotland somewhere. It has an open fire and a sauna

Wow, the sizes go up to a 28, isn't that good!

But I don't like the dress. Perhaps in real life it would be different. I'd also like to see what is holding the straps to the dress, are they metal rings? Plastic?

It says the wrap is £45, is the cape different??

I'm sure it will look lovely on you, it's just not to my taste!

Oh size 28, I'd better finish the creme eggs then!

The rings are "crystal" so I presume it's metal with little jewels in. I've made an appointment to try it because it's just round the corner from work. Appointment's not for 2 weeks though

I think they mean the stuff that's through the rings might be £45 but that kinda threw me too, since there is no "wrap" pictured!

Would you have a meringue kykaree???
