December Wedding - going to be a total HS reunion (Fun, and gagging at the same time)
I want something short and fit/flare and fun - w/ kind of a audrey hepbrun look - thinking a boatneck or high is neckline, cap sleeve or sleeveless ........that kind of thing -
I'm really open to any color with the exception of yellow/orange
TIA !!

This is pretty - I'd have to see it in person though and try it out.
I think I want something more structured than lace though ........

Re: Dress me for a Wedding -
I bought THIS ONE from Macy's clearance rack in Coral a couple months ago. Wonder if they still have a few.

Re: Dress me for a Wedding -
I really like ModCloth's Luck be a Lady Dress. It's the first thing I thought of based on your description- structured, boatneck, Audrey Hepburn. They have it in a fews different colors/prints/styles, but I have it in black with the white lace trim and it's stunning. The fabric is heavy and falls beautifully. And best of all, it has pockets!

I've been eyeing this dress forever - I'm just going to buy it. - Does it fit fairly true to size?
UGGGGGGHHHHH - Forget it. The stupid awful exposed zipper ruins it for me every single time - I HATE this look !!!!

Eh, the zipper doesn't bother me, though I do agree that modcloth does it way more often than I'd like. Is it THAT much more work to cover the zipper? In case you change your mind, it does run true to size. I found it's a little loose up top on me- sometimes the high back comes a little away from my shoulders, but that's only if I'm leaning over and dancing and it in no way takes away from the dress.
ETA: I wonder if a tailor could put in a different zipper? It's honestly that nice of a dress that I would do that, if the zipper is the only thing holding you back.

I hate zipper backs because they grab my hair and pull it out.

Re: Dress me for a Wedding -
There's also this dress from Modcloth. It struck me as similar- not sure how you feel about the floral print. But no zipper!
ETA: I really like this one, too! The back is cute- it has a little cut out with a bow.
Meant to Bijou Dress in Pewter (Also comes in Navy)
Might be a little much with the tulle...
Before the Opera Dress
A little more funky..
Art of Enchantment Dress
A little pricey, but I have it in another print and it's too stinking cute.
Champagne Cocktails Dress
or Promoting Elegance
Lasting Impression (Dips low in back)
Clearly I'm a little obsessed with ModCloth, but they just have SO many dresses.
