Making a new post, since I can only attach 5 images.
I also love this, especially the slight ombre to grey, but unfortunately, being without a bra is not an option for me. I have a tiny ribcage, but a lot of boob.

Thanks, AHN. I was hoping you'd jump in here.
We're planning for late April — it will be our 10-year anniversary, and as we each hold a passport that the other wouldn't mind having, we decided it was time. That said, we haven't 100% settled on a location, so it might end up being quite cold... There is pretty much no chance of it being over about 22C, because I don't do hot, so the warmest locale we'd pick would be San Francisco.
Your dream ensemble is exactly the sort of thing I have in mind — in fact, it's already on my Pinterest board. That, or the Gaultier kimono dress that Madonna wore, but not in red. Ideally in a dark, very muted green (PMS5477 is my favorite color), a light silvery grey, or even white.

My coloring is pretty weak, and I just can't carry red without a lot of makeup, which really isn't my thing.
I like this, too, but the red problem persists.

As for non-traditional, I am open to many things — white but unusual shape, color, etc. I promised my mom I wouldn't wear all black, but I also told her not to get her hopes up for white.
I was considering this piece, if I can find it in my size:

Possibly wearing it over this:
Or having a skirt painted in my style and palette, similar to this but more my thing:

Thanks for the great ideas, and if anything else strikes you, please let me know.

First of all - congratulations!! What season will it be when you've scheduled the ceremony?
This is my dream wedding ensemble, I have no idea if that kind of thing is up your alley though.
Do you have any feelings with respects to the traditional style of wedding dress? By this I mean, are you thinking 'white gown, but what?' or do you lean toward the more nontraditional such as a coloured gown, or not a gown at all, or trousers even, etc?
As for the more traditional kinds of gowns, the Givenchy 2011 Haute Couture collection always resonated fondly with me.
Gareth Pugh could be a great consideration for a gown with a darker twist, and I am also in love with the couture work of Hogan McLaughlin, although it's very dark/period-style/witchy (he does costumes for Game of Thrones).
Of course having said this I don't know how one would get their hands on any of these. But perhaps it gives you a stylistic starting place?Attached Files

I'll cut to the chase... I'm getting married, and I have no idea what to wear. I searched this forum, but nothing came up.
I have no interest in a traditional, white, princess dress. But it's also safe to say that I'm a bit obsessed with style and want something special. It's also worth mentioning that I'm in my 40s, and while I'm in decent shape, I wouldn't want to wear anything that skews too young...
We're still working out details, but right now the top contender is a pagoda in a park. It will be a very small wedding (less than 15 people, including us), and the level of formality is very much up to us.Tags: None
