One definitely gives me the vintage bookish vibe. Two gives romantic garden party.

Not everyone can wear one. You look stunning.

Both are so gorgeous but dress two just seems perfect for your wedding vibe 😍

I’ll also go with the minority and say dress 1! It looks amazing. 2 gives me fairy vibes, not vintage vibes.

2!! And tell me who is the designer!!

They’re both very pretty, but something about 2 feels special

I love them both but I do feel the sleeves may overwhelm your small frame in the second one. But could just be the angles of the photos. What a neat vibe!

Dress 1 is stunning on you! While I like dress 2, there’s a lot going on there. Dress 1 showcases your gorgeous figure in such a lovely way.

May i know the name of the 1st one. It looks so stunning on you 😍

After careful consideration, dress #1 fits better and doesn't wear you. While the other dress is gorgeous all you really see is the other dress.

Voting for 1! I love the soft look of the fabric and color paired with the structure and texture of the bodice. She’s beautiful, modern, timeless, etc.

I think they both look lovely on you, but I think the second one’s sleeves are a bit much.

I’d go with #2, simply stunning. I love how light and magical it seems to be. Perfect ethereal dress imo.

1! I knew it was my choice before even seeing the other dress. It’s just stunning 🤩

Definitely 1!!!

I much prefer dress number one!!

You can’t make a wrong choice here since both are so beautiful but I agree that 2 seems to fit into your wedding theme just a little better than 1!

I love them both but I do love dress 1 more! It feels so etherical and sweet. I love the florals.

1

Both are beautiful on you…but I feel like I see you looking beautiful in a beautiful dress with #1 vs a beautiful dress with #2 because It’s a lot going on with #2 that I find mildly distracting from you. I hope that makes sense! I love your theme and think either would work with it!

Both a gorgeous and you won’t go wrong. But 2 is really busy. 1 is perfect.

The first one is so flattering on you, and I think it fits the vibe too!

1

First one !

Definitely 1

When is your wedding?

If it’s going to during a warm time of year, the sleeves will make you feel hotter.

If they are detachable to wear for indoor pics that might work,

2 fits the vibe more, but the 80s puffy poufy sleeves are throwing the dress for me. it looks like it’s wearing you.

Too much pouf at the top, too much pouf at the bottom. Pouf from shoulder to train. That’s a lot with those sleeves and skirt.

I’d love to see 2 no sleeves.

Love #1 on you, it’s perfect.

I LOVE number one!!! It’s EVERYTHING and then some! Gorgeous!

I prefer 1. Reminds me of the dress I was originally going to get but then changed my mind

2 is beautiful on you! Pretty, ethereal & just lovely 🌸

Wow I was all for the first one until I saw the second!!! I think both are so pretty but 2 fits the vibe and it so unique!!

Oh man. I get why you’re stuck. They’re both absolutely gorgeous on you. Please update when you choose!

You look STUNNING in dress 1.

I mean Beautiful! WOW!

I vote 1! It also works with your theme! I feel like the sleeves on 2 might not be that comfortable all day and night. Also just can’t stop thinking about Glenda the good witch on wizard of Oz, definitely the preferred witch (bc the wicked witch of the west still scares me lol) but makes the dress feel costumey to me.

Dress 2 is everything! It's beyond gorgeous 😍

Tough choice, as they both look amazing on you. But #2 makes you look so ethereal and beautiful!

i love #1, #2 is adorable but not my fav of the two

This isn't going to help, but I can see why you're torn. They are both gorgeous.

Leaning towards dress 1. I love the way the skirt drapes.

Team one. It looks amazing.

I hate to say it, #1, hands down. That's gorgeously beautiful fits you perfect.

​

.... you knew that tho, didn't you :)

I gasped when I saw dress 1. Super unique and looks so good on you

1 looks really special on you

Both are stunning but the second is more unique and I think I personally like it better. Whichever you pick will be awesome!

I love dress 1 on you. 2 is nice, but I'm not a fan of the puffy sleeves.

I’m gonna say one. I really like dress two, but as the others say it seems to wear you more and dress one really shows your figure and lets you shine. I think also that two is more casual. You could probably find a short version/something very similar to this dress if you wanted to wear it for rehearsal dinner or some other event.

One!! Just needs that underarm piece altered.

1!!

1 is gorgeous on you! 2 while I love it, is overwhelming you.

I like one! 2 seems a bit busy.

I am team 1

They’re both amazing, but I like 1 a little bit better

I prefer the first one. The second one feels almost too big for your body. I know alterations, but 1 seems made for you.

Dress 1 is perfect 👌

1! I love the surprising little details. You look beautiful in it!

1 is so freaking stunning omg

1

Number 1! I feel like number 2 is too overwhelming. Number 1 is gorgeous

I like 1. Very clean lines

One looks gorgeous. Two just seems like too much fabric.

Number 1!

LOVE number 1!! But I'm a sucker for large floral appliques.

1 all the way

1 is just gorgeous!

Dress 1 is lovely. I feel dress 2 has too much going on, it’s too busy.

1 but really, you can’t go wrong. You look great in both

Dress 2 may seem to fit the theme of your wedding, but it’s still a wedding which is why I will say one! It’s lovely

Obsessed with dress 1 it’s so gorgeous!!!! Dress 2 gives me fairy garden venue vibes more

Can you tell me what 1 is?? I bought my dress (not the same but CB Matilda) as a sample and it has the same appliqué and I need a little more of it for repairs. And I vote 1! But am slightly biased I suppose :)

I really like both. I’d like to see #2 without the sleeves. It’s a very beautiful and whimsical dress.

I completely thought 1 would be my vote until I saw 2. It’s stunning!

2 is more flattering to your figure.

They are both lovely- dress 2 just feels extra special

Dress 2

Omg they both look great but number 2 WOWED ME!

2!!! Both are gorgeous but 2 would fit your vibe better. Also, having a dress with sleeves is 100% more comfortable than a strapless dress

1. Beautiful and something I would have loved to wear lol

2

I think 2 would be magical with your wedding theme!

You look so beautiful in both but dress 2 is so romantic and ethereal. Holy wow.😍

Both are beautiful. I love 2 the best. It’s so original and looks so great on you.

D2

TWO!! This is like top 5 dresses I've seen ever. I love this! It's so gunne sax but modern.

Dress 2.

Both dresses are indeed beautiful, but based on your theme, I would go with dress 2. It has a princess vibe that would be perfect for your wedding theme. Good luck.

Dress 2 is so ethereal and romantic. It definitely gives vintage vibes. And it's stunning on you. Dress 1 is pretty and looks good on you, but just doesn't have the same wow factor for me.

2!!!!!!!!!!!

Omg 2!!!!

Dress 2 looks so special. I think it has a vintage 1940s feel, with the color and overall style.

2 is made for you

First Dress! The 2nd is different and interesting, but ultimately I like everything about the 1st dress better and I still think it fits the vibe you're going for.

Number one is really pretty! Number two is absolutely beautiful and unusual! I would go with two and don’t let Mom touch it! Heaven forbid, something goes wrong then you will be resentful and she will be upset! Something this important should be left to an absolute professional who is not emotionally involved.

2without the sleeves

I was going to say it HAD to be number one before looking at two or reading the description. Number two is also stunning and unique and fits your theme perfectly. They are both absolutely stunning on you but I just really like number one !

I love number one, but honestly they are both fantastic!

1is stunning

1!

Dress 1!!

1

One!! Two is so costumey and you are swallowed up in it.

You have incredible taste! I have never seen dresses that look like either of these before and they are both breathtaking on you. I would say I favor #1 by a hair but you cannot go wrong with either!

Dress 1!!!

One!!!

1

Dress one!

Omg I see why you're having a hard time! Both are incredible. I'm partial to 1 though!

Dress 1 is my favorite on you

1!!!

Dress 1

Definitely the first one

Go with the dress that makes you feel the most beautiful ❤️

Both beautiful 2 fits the vibe better

If you don't choose 2, I'll riot.

2 is a DREAM!

2!!

2 all the way

2 is so unique and just lovely! It looks perfect on you!

2 is so special and you look radiant in it!

I love #2 and feel like it fits your theme perfectly. You also look beautiful in it.

1

Squad 1 goals

I love the first one!

I love 1. I think it showcases YOU.

I love both dresses! I slightly favor dress 2 because it is so unique and may fit the venue best. But again, both are gorgeous on you and whatever choice you make is the right choice.

Me: one, no. Two, audible gasp Dress two is stunning AND would, I think, fit your venue beautifully.

Number 2 is magical! It looks so beautiful on you. And it’s a perfect fit with your theme.

Both lovely and whimsical but #2 is simply outstanding on you, very unique, and fits your wedding theme! Go for it!!

You look gorgeous in both but #2 is so ethereal! Wow!

Team #2 given your theme.

2

Both gorgeous but #2 is your dress. Your body says it and your venue seals the deal. Team 2!

Dress 2 was made exactly for you and your theme! It’s perfection!

Dress 2 definitely. I gasped when I saw it. It’s made for you!

I gasped at 2. You look beautiful in it.

Number two! You look like a fairy queen 😍

2222

Wow 2 is so special 😍

2! So feminine and romantic.

Dress 2 is magical and gives me vintage vibes.

I loved dressed 1 and then swiped and saw dress 2. Dress 2 all the way!

2!!!!

Dress 2 is giving Glinda the Good Witch in all the best ways! 😍

2 but without the sleeves. Or with the sleeves straightened

I agree! Both are pretty but dress 2 is just the right vibe. Congratulations

I thought 1 was absolutely gorgeous on you till I swiped and saw 2 not sure how but it’s even more magical on you!

They are both beautiful, but #2 has the edge for me. It’s just made for you. Your body language tell’s me #2 as well. You are “petting” the dress, a huge sign it’s the one.

I love both but I think I’d like 2 better if the sleeves were removed.

Two, and what an adorable and different dress!!

Im tied. Thry are both magnificent

First is giving a beautiful flower petal and second is giving princess fairy which means I love BOTH.

Second is busier and I find myself wondering about your personality. Are you subdued as a person? It might be nice to have more “noise” in your dress compliment that.

If you are naturally exuberant, I would go for the first to balance that!!

Dress do is prefect for your theme !

2 is gorgeous and fits the theme more! You could reduce the sleeve volume, and maybe make them 'bell'?

I think it's the first time it's been so hard for me to decide 😭!! I was like 1 obviously but then saw 2 and omg!! But I think one fits you sooooooo nice and it's still so unique

Such a tough choice!! I love both of them on you!

These are beautiful! They both give different vibes but I love them both! You can’t go wrong!

I love dress 2 but only if the beige color underneath can be changed it’s not good with your skin tone but everything else about it is beautiful. If not then dress one is very pretty on you too.

I love 2 but am a bit overwhelmed by the poofy sleeves. What about fluttery cap sleeves? Would that be an option or no?

You can't go wrong they are both beautiful ❤️!

Dress 2 is gorgeous- young, care free and so happy! I love the sleeves and design overall!!!!💕 AND I love your theme!!!!
