    Karriann - LOL! I'm vertically challenged too! I had to have 7 and 3/4 inches chopped off the bottom of my dress!!!

    I didn't find the photo of my dress on the model until a couple of weeks ago and bought my dress last August. I don't think the model does the dress justice either. Not that I'm an oil paining or anything like that, just that I think the person makes the dress, not the other way around.

    the real brides are winning so far by the looks of it lol this is my dress on a model and i think its nasty on her as she has no curves.
    a few years ago i went for a bridesmaid dress fitting and the lady who owned the bridal store asked me too model some of her dresses on a catwalk, i was a 12-14 so not skinny but she wanted busty models with a shape, i dont see why designers would use a model who doesnt flatter there dress! x

    Thanks Ataraxia for putting my pics on. And thanks for the lovely comments. I must admit it is nice to have a bit of cleavage in the dress (something the model doesn't show lol). Only 8 weeks to the wedding now and having my first dress fitting next week, so hopefully pics of the finished dress soon...

    I reckon the model in my dress is standing on a box ... her legs can't possibly be that long!!

    You know when you go to the bridal shop and they have those things for you to stand on? I think they are all on those. They never made sense to me, I know I'm short... I don't need to see what the dress would be like if I was 6 inches taller :D

    Loving your dress Mel... its lovely! I think it looks much better with the straps too, you've got a gorgeous figure Mel!

    I had to stand on a little step at the dress shops becuase I'm so short so I could see how the dress would fall - it was a little precarious with heels!

    I haven't seen any giant ladies walking around!!!
