For my friends wedding? Or should I just be a diva and buy 2 and 3, and wear the pink top one to the wedding, and the black one to the reception?

I like 3 the best, but for some reason Im having a hard time wearing all black to the wedding. I do have some dark pink heels I could wear with it though. :)

What can I do next?

I LOVE THE 2ND ONE!! It's very classic and simple and you can really go nuts accessorizing with it :) You could wear any color heels, handbags, jewels with that one, it's not too much black, and you can wear it again!

#2 is the best out of the three, classic yet fun.

#3 with a nice necklace, shoes and handbag would also look great.

#1 does not look proper for a wedding, looks like just a slip.

They all look rather short so make sure you pick one that will not reveal too much when dancing, or sitting at a table.

I like the 2nd one best. A mix of classy and fun without being too dour for a wedding.

I don't like #1 at all. It looks like a nightgown.
I don't really like #3 either. It is not sleek and pretty, it kind of bunches up on the side. Which I know is what it's supposed to do, but I still don't like it!! lol
I like #2 the best out of those 3 choices. It's pretty small though. Is it an outside wedding? An evening wedding?

i like 2 best......#3 doesn't look very 'dressy' to me for some reason, maybe it's the pocket & the belt

I would wear the black dress with a pink chunky necklace and pink heels. Maybe a sweater or fitted jacket over, since, it's winter in Michigan.

Well I like no 3 the best too. But I gotta tell you, I went to a wedding with largely late 20s early 30s something Friday night, and I have to say pretty much EVERY woman (dozens of them) who was thin wore a dress exactly like number 3.

So, being old I don't like no 1 that much cuz it looks like a slip, like UNDERWEAR.

And number two is a cocktail dress but a little unique, you know?

So my vote is No. 2!

I vote for #3. It looks more formal, you'll be able to use it a ton in the future, and your pink heels will look so awesome with it!

I would definitely go for 3. Classic black dress that can be reused and redressed in many ways. don't like 1 at all looks like a nightie. Number 2 has you needing to have very certain perportions to look right. Have fun.

I really only like the 3rd one. I think black is fine to wear to a wedding, especially with colored heels.

In fact I"m in a wedding next year and all the bridesmaids are wearing black cocktail dresses, with hot pink shoes. :)

I wouldn't change for the reception, I feel like that is something that just the occasional bride does, not guests. :)

I like one the best, but I could never pull off a color like that with my skin tone. I would also have trouble with the pink top one, so by default for me personally, I would go with the black one, and add color accessories. Have you tried any of them on to check against your skin? If they all look good, wear what your want, but I wouldn't change between wedding and reception.
