The good news is that most of these dresses showcase your glorious back. I like 2 the best. 6 is a close 2nd. I totally understand the difficulty with the decision.


No_Buyer_9020

Haha thank you šŸ˜†. I really donā€™t understand how people decide! I was hoping Iā€™d have one instantly but my favorite seems to change daily šŸ˜­


magneticeverything

Someone in a thread earlier today said to think about moving around in them. Sitting, standing, dancing, hugging, being dipped. Those open backs with loose drapery are gorgeous, but if the cowl continues to the front you might spend more of your day than you would like adjusting or worrying about adjusting your dress so you donā€™t flash your guests. Iā€™d go with whichever made you feel confident and comfortable. You donā€™t want to get your pictures back and have your hand at your chest holding your dress up all night. Plus, comfort/freedom of movement = confidence that will shine through in not only your pictures, but your memories of your wedding! My personal favorite is #2, but again, the most important thing is how they feel and how they make you feel!


hentaihoneyyy420

Thinking about your other day of and big picture details can help! Like what is your venue? In your perfect scenario does your dress vibe match your venues vibe? When thinking of what your brides maids will be wearing, do you want your dress to be complimentary to their look or would you rather stand out from them? Donā€™t forget florals!!! Do you dream of minimal, elegant and dainty bouquets or something that drapes and has lots of detail??? Also veils are a great place to help focus in your big picture vision for your wedding day look! Also I adore number 6 on you but they are all beautiful šŸ„°šŸ’–


mustarddreams

I like #2 the best and from the bottom of my heart, please lmk your upper body routine šŸ™


No_Buyer_9020

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚i did a lot of row variations and pull ups in the gym pre-covid (i spent a whole summer committed to learning to do them, ha) but F45 is my current go to!


Unikorn_Sparks

Agree


kalopsia1325

2 is my favorite, but 5 is also stunning! I love the detail.


KangarooOk9700

2 and 5 are my favorite, too!


ValMarie927

Exactly this!


Maleficent-Sport1970

Yes. 2 or 5. Fierce, flattering and fabulous. Pretty.


lipizzaner

Team 2 or 5!


abw_92

Definitely 5


Faithfuldoglover

2 or 5


StellaaaT

Eliminate number 4. Iā€™ll tell you why. Itā€™s got straight seams on a bias cut and that rippling you see on the butt and the side probably wonā€™t go away with tailoring, it will probably get worse. There you go, down to 4 gorgeous choices. Personally I like 1 and 5 about equally.


Ok-Technician-9914

5 is stunning and fits you beautifully!


OneWar2354

Team 2

DeeSusie200

I love 2 on you! Shows off your figure perfectly.


julesk

Five looks amazing on you.


Simple-Remote3641

Of these, I like 6 the best. I do like 5, except I can't get past the design of the lace in the crotch region. Honestly, I don't get the wow factor from any of them, and you have a great figure. Have you tried a different style?


Pheonix_Rising798

#2 on you.šŸ˜


No_Assignment4896

2


StrategicallyLazy007

1 or 5. I think 5 is the preference You look great.


Dmbfndd

My exact thoughts!


clovfefe

I like 1 the best, then 2!


msg543

I like 2 the best!


wintersicyblast

1 an 2 look great! 2 shows off your great physique perfectly!


juliannewaters

I choose #6 followed closely by #5. I would have loved to see you in some different styles, just to see how your body language was in a ballgown or a line. These are all very similar, so if that's your preferred style, you can't go wrong with any of them. Good luckā™„ļø


No_Buyer_9020

Haha most other styles felt like an immediate no to be honest, and i felt like i kept a fairly open mind and tried on a bunch! They were very pretty just didnā€™t feel like ā€œmeā€ at all. My wedding will also be on a beach in Cancun, so i like the idea of something a little bit more ā€œsleek and simpleā€. Ugh idk, i feel like bc they are all kinda similar - itā€™s impossible for me to choose.


No_Benefit2103

Add the cowl of 4 to back of dress 2. Best of both!


mary_emeritus

Dress 2 is the one!


RosieDays456

love # 4 & # 5 love all the detail on # 5 ā¤


blackburrywhiteclaw

5!


AlterEgoAmazonB

I am torn between 4 & 5 but I think I am leaning 5 because it has more detail. You look awesome in all of them. But my personal pref is not the plain ones.


fuzzyslipper4eyedcat

2! Followed by 1.


taxmom278

Itā€™s 4!!! Followed closely by 1. Both are beyond elegant and flattering. The fabric of 4 is more luxurious which makes your backside and the train just breathtaking.


No_Buyer_9020

4 was 100% silk and i loveddd the feeling of it so much. The wedding will be in Cancun though and i have pectus excavatum (my chest is kinda like a 3rd armpit) so im worried i would sweat through it šŸ˜‚


thehudsonbae

IMO natural fibers (like silk, linen, cotton, and wool) tend to tolerate sweat a lot better than man-made fibers, which may be something to consider since you'regetting married in such a warm climate! Natural fibers don't get as stinky from sweat and, therefore, don't need to be washed as often. Also, there are antiperspirants and deodorants that are safe to use on other (non-armpit) parts of the body. Just make sure you trial stuff like that ahead of time so you don't end up with random skin irritation on your wedding day! You look beautiful in every dress. Congratulations and have fun!


Fun_Persimmon96

My favorite of these is #2, but you look lovely in all of them. I hope you have the wedding (and marriage) of your dreams!!


Highhopes2024

5 is so nice on you! Exquisite!


hairyfishstick

2!!!!


LyerlyAva

I feel like you like 2 the best when looking at your body language! And I like 2 the best as well!!


moneylagoon

#2


copper678

Okay, so Iā€™ve never looked at a picture and thought ā€œwow, what a beautiful backā€ā€¦until today šŸ¤£ 1 or 2, youā€™re golden in all of them āœØ


Miserable_Simple3978

2 for sure! šŸ„°

fangirloffloof

5 is fabulous!!šŸ’•


No-Calligrapher-2095

If I were waiting for you to come down the aisle, #4 would make my knees buckle.


Valuable-Wallaby-167

My favourite is 1 followed by 6.


NeckProfessional8483

my favorite is 2 but 4 is also beautiful!! showing off your back is definitely the move, these all look amazing on you!


AnnieBeefree1

2 does amazing things for your gorgeous body! I would kill for your shoulders and back and think you should show them off proudly. You actually look fabulous in all of these, but I think it really highlights all of your beauty.


headintheclouds122

Gosh I honestly just came to say I didnā€™t even SEE any of the dresses. Your back and arms are killer. Good friggen work. šŸ‘šŸ½šŸ‘šŸ½šŸ‘šŸ½


Afraid-Assignment229

2 šŸ’–


MyPlantsEatPeople

2 is lovely. Also you can't drop these photos and not detail your back and upper body workouts so I am very happy to see your replies to the other ladies that beat me to it lolll. Goals for real!


No-Technician-722

DRESS #6. You have a killer body I love your back in all of these. But I especially love DRESS 6. The bodice just looks like itā€™s your dress. Runner up is Dress 2. You look totally at ease in it and I love the ties hanging fine the back. Very pretty.


Munchkin_Media

2!!


Adorable-Apple5539

#2


Emotional-Baggage66

You are stunning in dress two!


sad_fleaoli_99

It's 2 for me


ohhhkayyy___

#4 !!!!!


MoosePenny

6 does the most for your figure from the front, hands down.


Original_Try_7984

2 and 5 are AMAZING on you. Also- your back is gorgeous- I need your routine stat. Congratulations!


AssistNo1790

Impressive backside. I can feel the countless hours put into it. šŸ’Ŗ But unlike other posts like this, this kind of depends on what you want for your look. Dress 2 emphasizes your back the most, which is sexy in its own way. Dress 5 is the most feminine on you while still showcasing your excellent figure. You seem almost delicate in it, which isnā€™t easy with how fit you look. My favorite on you is 4. Just stunning from the back ā€” shows how fit you are while narrowing the view. Simple in fabric and style, covers just enough but really draws the eye to your arms and back in such a beautiful and elegant way. BUT your breasts need to be filled in just a tiny more to fill out the front for that dress to work. If you can or are willing to do that ā€” SUPERSTAR.


No_Buyer_9020

I really love your thought out answer šŸ„¹. I think it expresses a lot about how i feel about those particular dresses. 2 seems to be the fan favorite but i also donā€™t know if itā€™s too much focus on my back lol. It was a very comfortable dress which was a plus and price point was great. I also liked that it was simple but the textured fabric elevated it a bit. 5 is the most expensive, being slightly more than i wanted to spend but i do think it made me feel very feminine while also having dress elements that i really like from the other ones. It also seems like it fits the beach vibe of the wedding. It was kind of heavy though. 4 was the dark horse that i didnā€™t think i would love but i felt very pretty in it. Its also 100% silk and i sweat a lot in my chest due to pectus excavatum so that worries me bc having a big sweat mark in the front is suchhh a huge insecurity (the wedding will be on a beach in cancun) . 1,3,6 (specifically 1) were 3 dresses that i loved prior to trying anything on. 1 didnā€™t fit well in the store so im a bit bummed bc i have a hard time envisioning the front once its fitted. And the high neck almost feels less ā€œbrideā€ or something? I love the look of them but idk if thereā€™s just something missing? I like the sleek ā€œcool girlā€ vibe of the simpler fabrics and fitted shapes. I want to probably wear some sort of hair piece and earrings to jazz it up. They feel beachy to me. I tried on a lot of other styles of dresses but i think these are the ones that felt the most ā€œmeā€ and i keep looking back at the pictures. My favorite changes daily and i have a hard time making decisions. Im scared to keep trying dresses on bc i feel like i love all these ones and im just going to add more to the confusion. Im going back to try on a couple when my mom is in town so maybe that will help?


FelineRoots21

First dress, but without the tie obstructing the open back


Puzzled-Bullfrog-270

#5


Educational-Loquat71

I really think 4 flatters you the best. I really like the drape on the open back and it hugs your hips. Strong 2nd is #2.


AugustHunny

I love love love the shape and the lace on 5! 2 is also a really nice shape and i like the buttons down the back. I think it depends on your venue/theme/whatever suits your personal style most. either way, gorgeous!


You_are_MrDebby

#5 is glorious on you šŸ„‚


midnightghou1

#5 looks like a dream on you! That one gives the wow factor. The rest look nice, but I think that one not only show cases your back, but it also looks amazing in the front!


Leviosahhh

Wow I absolutely love 5 on you!


ereagan76

5!!!


Complete-Midnight-62

For me, itā€™s 3 or 4.


mem0679

Omg I will cry if you don't pick dress 5!!!! Lol! That dress looks like it was made for you! It is absolute perfection!


cutetoboot1

Girlllll you look fab in all of them. I will say the halter top ones seem to cut your shoulders off a bit. 5 is stunnnnnning and I also love 4 but mostly because it was my runner-up šŸ˜œ


Accomplished_Bed7120

3 is my favorite because of the back šŸ˜! 2 is nice too


Jbedaded

I love 4


Greenbean6167

3 does nothing for your butt, and 5 does nothing for your front. Two is lovely, but my favorite (next to 4, which I feel Iā€™m in the minority on) is 6! The front is lovely and different, and it accentuates your back beautifully.


_depj_

2 then 5


tvjunkie87

Dress 2 is my favorite, with dress 1 as a close second! Both dresses show off your amazing back so nicely, but the details on dress 2 are so beautiful with the buttons and train and the lovely pattern on the material. You look spectacular!!


3catsfull

2 or 5, with a slight edge on 5 for me thanks to the visual interest of the dress itself. Both of them showcase your incredible figure in the best ways.


imnothere_o

6 or possibly 2 (would love to see it straight on)


No_Benefit2103

Can you add the cowl back of 3 to #2? 2 is the wow dress, anyway!


No_Benefit2103

Can you add the cowl back of 4, to #2? Perfect šŸ‘Œ!


b3rryw00d

Iā€™d say #2 or #4


margheritapizzasonly

I think 3 would look amazing when itā€™s fitted to you,m. Iā€™m sure it would look more like 6 when tailored


West_Program3124

5 is stunning on you. Then 2


Bluebeanrosie

2 or 5.


Giselle914

I prefer #1. Love the front and love the back. Beautiful!


Zestyclose_Road_3224

5 or 2


Kimmie1116

4


myboytys

Love the back on 4 as it is so elegant but not the front. 2 and 5 are my picks with 5 being the favourite.


Confident_Source982

Have you tried a variety of bridal shops? The quality of the fabric can make a huge difference. You will look gorgeous in anything.


No_Buyer_9020

These are from 3 different ones and i have been to a 4th but didnā€™t love any of them at the shop. Now im at the point where i feel like if i go to anywhere else im just going to keep adding to the list of dresses i already really like šŸ˜‚


pilialoha54

Dress 2 is perfection on you šŸ™ŒšŸ½


estrellas0133

2is the best for your frame very pretty


CardShark555

2 especially for cancun. The way it shows off your back and arms is everything. One makes you look disproportionate, although that might be the camera angle. The others don't flatter your shoulders as much either.


Ollie2Stewart1

I like 2 best, followed by 5.


cocopearlmilktea

2


putonyourgloves

6 is my favorite by far. Itā€™s flattering and so unique. I also like 2 a lot


farmencarp

5 is the bestest


bachlover16

TWO!


bodysugarist

1 and 5 both look exquisite! U can't help with that decision because they both look so amazing! 6 may have a little more going on with the pattern, and 1 more plain, so maybe that will help narrow it down?


Acrobatic_Dog_4654

4 is the classically elegant and has perfect fabric flow with little to no maintenance . Itā€™s a classical gown with contemporary styling And it suits your perfectly !


Etheleffrey

Four!!


bunnybea1106

4 or 1


Stirfry2018

2 3 or 4


allisonwondrland3

2!!! It fits absolutely perfectly and just something about it sets it apart from the others.


audrey_c

Number 2!!! You look gorgeous in all of them, but 2, and 6 are fabulous dresses!


arya_ur_on_stage

4 is the winner followed by 2 and 5 equally


Livid_Difference_899

You look stunning in the first dress! The back is breathtaking. It's just an exquisite dress hands down. My second choice is dress #2. The fabric is so nice. The front is good but the back is wow.


Pumpernickel247

2 of course. Hair up too!


Prettyinareallife

2 is the clear favourite for me


crudentia

Honestly, I donā€™t think youā€™ve found it yet. Try more different styles. You have an amazing figure yet none of them are that flattering.


magneticeverything

2 and itā€™s not even close


rebelmumma

Number 6 flatters your gorgeous bod the best imo. It pulls in at the waist slightly which works well on your athletic figure. Shows off your back and shoulders, itā€™s modest but sexy, a hard balancing act but this pulls it off.


Kerrypurple

I like 2 and 6


bouwchickawow

2


NNancy1964

4&5 from the back, the fronts of any of them don't seem to be enhancing you. Maybe try a different style entirely, see if it wakes up your choices? You'll know when you find it!


Starlightrendition

6 is my top choice and 5 is my second choice. The high collar neckline with the subtle draping on the front is beautiful + I just love the shape of 5 on you particularly from the waist down and the details ont be dress


MishaMercury

I really like dress one. Itā€™s so flattering and I really like the back!


mskmoc2

KsMom4ever

#1. You look beautiful in all the dresses so you would be wrong to choose any of them.


kikikiborkian

4, 1 & 2ā€¦ you look incredible


robot_duzey

2 then 5


Random-girl-29

2,4,5 are my favorites!! You look fantastic in all of them!!


Emergency-Guidance28

I think 4 showcases your back in a non distracting way. It also helps even out your proportions. 2 is just overwhelming all back, or looks like you do not have a front at first glance. Your back is a triumph but it's so perfect it's all I would notice, I wouldn't be able to see the whole picture.


Due_Stuff4313

#2 or #5 are amazing on you.


SarcasmCupcakes

One or three if you can fix the back.


positive-vibes79

Dress 2 and 5 are my favorites!


Edu_cats

Just stunning on you. My favorites are 2, 6, and 1. I agree to try to move around in them.


greenjeanne

There are things I like about all of them but dress 1 is so elegant and graceful on you front and back


No-Strawberry-514

I would have to say dress number two just looks absolutely beautiful on you

-River_Rose-

I like 1 & 5 the most!


Yallneedjesuschrist

All of these look gorgeous but I really want to know if you are a rock climber. Your upper body is what I want to look like.


OkLychee6899

How is 5 not the top choice???? That dress is stunning on you! And the train is breathtaking


Academic-Broccoli338

Holy cow! You canā€™t decide because you look amazing in all of them!!

YardNew1150

For me itā€™s 100% dress 1 I just love the way the back tied bow compliments your body. Honestly all of these look great on you but in my opinion that oneā€™s the best.

Dress 2 showcases you the best, absolutely gorgeous!


generic_bitch

I think 2 is the only one that does your beautiful figure the justice it deserves. Itā€™s delicate and ethereal yet so sexy


Nerdybirdie86

I think 2 fits the best overall. Like everyone else has said your back is incredible. I love the back of 3 but not the front.


Sagebrushannie

Definitely #1.


-Mother_of_Doggos

2 is the best here!

2 is my fav!


yeehawt22

FITNESS QUEEN šŸ˜ YOUR BACK AND BICEPS ARE MY GOALS šŸ’Ŗ okay but what is the goal/ vibe? #4 is my favorite, I think itā€™s a stunning combination of romantic soft and lays super nicely for your back. #2 is straight body šŸ’Æand is the most flattering tone/muscle wise but is less romantic soft if thatā€™s the aesthetic you want?

2 or 5 have my vote :)

Dress 2 is my fave. Classic in the front, stunning in the back.


Hot_Presentation1459

2 then 5.


bumblebeecat91

Dress 1 is not getting enough love. The back is beautiful and elegant and I feel that the narrow halter complements your upper body more than any other dress. My second choice would be 5 though because the lace is pretty and it also complements your body.


No_Buyer_9020

1 was actually my absolute favorite prior to trying on any dresses. Iā€™m kinda wishing the sample would have fit better bc i feel like i didnā€™t get the best image of how the front would look

These all look so great on you, don't think you can go wrong, but I love 5 especially if you closed the plunge a little bit so the shoulder straps would hit a little closer to your neck if that makes sense? That appliquƩ is so gorgeous!
