Linda87 Posted February 24, 2018 Author #2 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Please help me choose which dress for formal night. It's our 30th anniversary. My husband will wear a tux. He's a formal kind of person. I have taken my fat body all over my small town and this is the best of my options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elainemasey61 Posted February 24, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I like the 2nd one- black. Wear what is most comfortable for you. Happy Anniversary [emoji3] Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awhfy Posted February 24, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I like them both. Which one makes you happy? Wear that one! Congratulations on your anniversary Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auntjoy036 Posted February 24, 2018 #5 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Both dresses are beautiful. The second is my favorite. Have fun! Vicki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reina del Mar Posted February 24, 2018 #6 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I like the second one better than the first. I would not be too comfortable in the sleeves on the pink one. (just a personal observation, sorry if it offends.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisyloo Posted February 24, 2018 #7 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I like the second one. It looks good on you and I think it would look like a better match to your husbands tux. Have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvscruising2007 Posted February 24, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I like the pink one. I think it is more flattering and you could probably get more uses out of it. But, as others have said, you have to pick the one you are most comfortable with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancun01 Posted February 25, 2018 #9 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I like the pink one. I think it is more flattering and you could probably get more uses out of it. But, as others have said, you have to pick the one you are most comfortable with. I agree. I think the pink is a better color for you and more flattering. I also think it is more stylish and youthful. Decisions! Decisions! It would be a dull world if we all thought the same! Congratulations on your anniversary.

Sailor_Sally Posted February 25, 2018 #10 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Get Both ! They both look great on you but I do favor the pink one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ell52 Posted February 25, 2018 #11 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Another vote for the pink. It makes you look more vibrant and the silhouette is sleeker and modern-looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzisme Posted February 25, 2018 #12 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I like the black one on you. Flattering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare puppycanducruise Posted February 25, 2018 #13 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Oh, difficult choice. I love the colour of the first one, but the sparkle of the second one is great too. You look wonderful in both, I don't think you can make a wrong choice. Hope you have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suenterry Posted February 25, 2018 #14 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I like the black one best as you can liven it up with pashminas, shawls etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted February 25, 2018 #15 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Long dress with the tux! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6rugrats Posted February 25, 2018 #16 Share Posted February 25, 2018 The black one. The pink is too informal with a tux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIJOY Posted February 25, 2018 #18 Share Posted February 25, 2018 You look very pretty in both dresses but I think the black dress is more formal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elainemasey61 Posted February 25, 2018 #19 Share Posted February 25, 2018 How often do we get to wear gowns? That’s why I chose the 2nd Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
centralcalicruzer Posted February 27, 2018 #20 Share Posted February 27, 2018 The black is more formal but the pink is really cute on you. Get both, won't the cruise have two formal nights anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda87 Posted February 27, 2018 Author #21 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Thank you all for the sweet words of encouragement. I went with the 2nd dress. Everyone called it black, but in real life it's called smoke and is a gray with some dark blue tones. Actually that's another thing I like about it. I don't wear much pure black and this will go with the shoes I already have. The dress is getting shortened at the alterations place now. Being 5 feet even is a trial. This dress was a petite and I still have to have it hemmed. I wish I could have gotten them both, but it's not in the budget. I already have a short formal dress that I plan to wear for the 2nd formal night. I cannot wait to go on this cruise and wear this dress!!!

I actually thought the dress looked like a smokey blue-gray, but everyone was saying black so I went with the flow. Have a great cruise and make sure to come back and post photos of you and your husband all dolled up on formal night! I'd love to wear a gown sometime, but don't know if I could get my husband into a tux! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought blue/gray also, and it looks lovely to go with a tux. You might want to consider thrift stores for dresses too. I'm always surprised what I can find that is formal (usually doesn't fit), but not just a prom dress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summergee Posted March 12, 2018 #24 Share Posted March 12, 2018 To me, the second is more formal than the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
