Rent the Runway help!

[pinkcat]

joy has made me a RTR convert based on all of the times I've heard her talking about how much she loves it, so I thought I would give it a try for a wedding we have this weekend!

The wedding is at a downtown hotel and DH is a groomsmen. I am on the shorter side- about 5 2" and I have a pretty short torso. Here is a picture of me in my current favorite dress to give you an idea of how dresses fit me and the styles I like. PDQ or skinsuit me



Which of the below 3 dresses do you think would work best for a wedding? I will be wearing black tights with any option since it will be pretty cold out on Saturday.

Option 1:



Option 2:



Option 3:

They are all cute; but I love the purple!

[notagoddess]

I think 2 would look great on you. Number 3 is very nice also.

I love the purple (#3)! But I wouldn't wear black tights with it, I'd go with nude stockings to go with the nude underlay.

[adorebel]

I like #3! It's lovely for fall and will pair well with black tights.

1 and 2 are both gorgeous as well, but I don't think #1 will look as nice with black tights, and because #2 is black, with black tights it could be a bit dreary for a wedding. If you chose nude tights instead, 2 and 3 are still my favorites.

+1 to this. If you're dead set on the black stockings, I'd go with the first one. Black tights/stockings with the black dress might be a bit too much black.

Thanks! I am not set on black tights at all...I should have just said I am said on some color tights

[ellabee]

Agree. I think 3 would look super cute on you! 2 would be my second choice.

[thechickencoop]

Dude is #1 sparkly? That totally gets my vote. I think it would look great with black tights and black heels.

[thechickencoop]

#2 would be my second choice. I love the frilly skirt

[lgraceh]

I would actually go with #1. I think it would look cute with black tights and tone it down just a little. However, I'd only do it if it is an evening wedding. The sequins would probably be over the top for anything earlier. Otherwise, I vote #3 with no tights. I guess nude nylons for a little extra coverage.

I LOVE the first dress. And I think it'd look fantastic with black tights and heels. I think the shape would flatter your petite-ness!

[daisy818]

I think I was wearing the one-shoulder version of #1 the night I met DH. But my vote is #3 with nude hose.

[mrsjene]

#2 is freaking adorable! I might get it myself!

[joy]

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

One is not my style. That tapered look is just a no for me.

[butlerfan]

#3 but with nude tights!

[gabride2010]

I think #3 is the best one!

[mikaela20]

For a wedding I vote # 3. #1 is too sparkly for a wedding for me but would love it for a Christmas party.

[BabyStandish]

#3!!!

[pinkcat]

Thank you all for the help! I knew I'd get some great feedback here I was leaning toward #1 since I love sparkles and it is a nighttime wedding, but now I am thinking maybe both 2 and 3- 3 for the rehearsal dinner and 2 for the wedding. I think I will save #1 for NYE!

[wannabmama]

pinkcat I got #1 in midnight blue (it's slightly different but pretty similar, same designer) and loooooooved it. Definitely do it for nye!
I love 2 and 3, too...I think one for each event is perfect. Add a fun necklace or something to brighten the black or even some fun shoes maybe. Have fun!

I love them all so this is a good idea to let you wear them all!!!

pinkcat, Yes! All 3! I didn't know that was an option or would have voted that!
