fit looks great! What color is it? (it just looks dark to me, can’t tell what it is.)

Attention dress shoppers! Macy’s FF 30% off sale is on, and that includes Ralph Lauren dresses!

Very nice dress. I still have my cotton eyelet 80’s wedding gown . Why I just don’t know! :smile:

The dress is navy (Ralph Lauren calls it refined navy lol).

Upthread I said my Nordstrom dress that I brought home (but will need altering if kept) was ElizaJ. Oops - actually it is Kay Unger. Love the feel of the fabric, but the print is bolder than I’d like. Still waiting on the new size for the AP dress, should be here by Monday.

I really like the Kay Unger dress, and I like that it has pockets.

Love the Kay Unger dress and print - much less busy than many of the other florals. It would be great for the garden wedding.

I really like the dress, but the print might be a bit too bold if everyone else wears solid colors and more muted prints: a darker, bolder outfit might become the focal point in photos.

Here is a similar one with a slightly muted print:

Thanks. That’s pretty. I love the feel of my KU dress fabric but not crazy about the bold print. Any experience with Saks returns? No stores within 100 miles of me.

Easy peasy mail in returns! We don’t have a Saks in the entire state, so I’ve mailed returns to them. Just save the box and packing slip and follow their instructions! :slight_smile:

Saks has a couple of really pretty Kay Unger dresses on sale right now.

I might order the one BB suggested. Any other size 4 your like? (I already have the Cory Floral).

My sister wore this Adrianna Papell for my son’s garden wedding and it looked very good in the formal pictures. Not too bold. Good quality and size 4. On sale for $75 and could also be nice instead if there are other events (rehearsal dinner, brunch) you need something for. https://www.amazon.com/Adrianna-Papell-Womens-Trumpet-Matelasse/dp/B09HYKYL5J

That’s pretty. It almost look like print from texture.

I’ll hold on ordering that or another Kate Unger midi. Bride and I are now leaning toward a long dress for me.

What length is the other mother wearing? I hope you guys lock down a length and general style soon so you know what to be ordering/looking at. I was thankful to know early on that knee length/tea length was okay with my DIL and other mom was not wearing a long dress. I am not that into fashion and was anxious about finding a dress and was relieved to have some direction. Good luck to you in finding a great dress!

Oh, now you have to look for a long gown? One that goes with lavender and navy, presumably. And has a floral print. And your V-neck preference.

There’s a subtle hint of lavender in this:

I like the last one suggested by Marilyn. The pleated one will have the same issue as some others…just too much fabric.

This is really pretty but not size 4
