IT'S YOUR TUESDAY MORNING SHOPPING CHALLENGE!


Dear ESB,

My fiance and I are getting married in less than 4 months in Las Vegas and I don't have a dress. I am not even close to knowing what I want or what would be appropriate. My guys and his best men are wearing black suits, white shirts and black ties. My best ladies are wearing a short black dress of their choice (I want them to really be able to wear their dress again).

We are getting married at a hotel (see: attached photo of ceremony space). We're ditching the purple uplighting, dimming the lights and adding lots of candles. Followed by drinks on a double decker bus and dinner in a swanky restaurant's private dining room with 30 of our closest friends and family.

Everything is set - except for the dress and I have no idea where to start. Can you or your readers help me out? What would you wear?

*****

Dear my readers,

What would YOU wear to get married in Vegas?

(Under $1000, s'il vous plait)


I think I'd go for this baby from Alexander Wang Resort 2013 (thx Anna!), which is sadly not for sale yet.

    I was just looking at J Crew and kind of wishing I was having a second wedding/wedding dress. Since the bridal party and groom are all pretty dressed up I would go more formal than esb's suggestion. But since it's Vegas, obviously nothing pouffy or with much of a train. And I just love the Corrina gown (and for a wedding dress it's super cheap).

    How about this helmut lang dress?

    Or this short number is pretty vegas-y to me.

    Not sure how "Vegas" it is but here's an elegant one that will match an all-fabric-and-candles swankiness:

    I can't unsee the purple lighting in that venue, but it's still gorgeous. Wear this short DFV with lace sleeves
