Wedding Dress Update
March 30, 2010
Just a little follow-up on last week’s poll. So many people voted and gave great advice —I was so very touched, honestly, thank you!!! I have decided to go with the Taryn gown for practical reasons. I tried on the Whitney in New York and it was an inch or two short (it was a size 6 and I’m 5′ 8″—that’s not that tall??) and I found out yesterday that sadly, J.Crew no longer offers custom lengths. They did offer to send extra fabric, but that would require a seamstress taking the dress apart and adding layers and I just don’t want to deal with it. So, the Taryn (above) is supposedly an inch longer and I’m going to give it a go. J.Crew allows you to return dresses for a full refund within 60 days (they were SO helpful on the phone) so fingers crossed! Also, I think the simplicity of the Taryn will make for fun accessorizing, don’t you? I’m trying to think positive! Any ideas on hair/jewlery???
