What Dress To Wear?
 

I need your help ladies! I am going to the wedding of a friend that I met through my hubby. I want to look great but I have an issue. I had surgery shortly after my car accident on my right shoulder. Now, the three areas where the incisions were made have scarred over BUT those scars have formed keloids. They look disgusting & disfiguring. Since then, I have refused to wear sleeveless and strapless b/c people tend to stare at these large scars on my right shoulder. I hate wearing any type of shawls so that option is out. I have been scouring for sexy & pretty dresses with actual sleeves that hide my scars.
So far, I have found these three:

It is an evening wedding so black should be fine. I'm stuck here. I was hoping for some sort of color like red, blue, green, etc. but so far, I'm only finding black with sleeves.
What dress out of these three do you think is the best? Or do you have suggestions as to where I can go find some more. The wedding is on the 17th. of this month.

I vote for number 2. If number two is velvet (it kinda looks velvety in the picture) the runner up is #3. I think all these dresses are really awesome looking!

It also depends on how they fit you. I'm petite, so those dresses would probably be too lowcut for me. (eek that's a major problem when buying clubbing clothes. I like low cut, but the V ends up below my bra in the front! ugh)

BTW doesn't the model for #1 looks like she's giving me the evil eye! :confused:

Sorry to intrude, but I like number 3. I love wrap dresses

#2 is definitely velvet.

I also love wrap dresses. My wedding dress was a wrap dress. Decisions decisions...

I'm with ufdale - I like #2 best. I was always taught not to wear black to weddings, but if you're stuck with black, I think the velvet makes it softer and more wedding-y.

I think the same. Black at weddings wouldn't cut it in KY. :p Although, I recently went to MN for a wedding & lots of people were wearing black. So, just go with the dress that is the most comfortable. Personally, I like #2, but I would die of heat in that thing, and I think #1 is a good choice too. #3 seems kind of low cut?

I'm with the people who said #2.

I don't see anything wrong with wearing black to a wedding. If ALL the guests wore black, I would wonder a little, but if it's just a person here and there, I don't think it's a big deal.

I'm guessing you're not from the South. :p

Born and Raised Peoria, IL. Now residing outside of Charlotte, NC (I know, still not the "South").

Hey-Kentucky is no more "South" as Charlotte, NC! I think its all about how you were raised & who you were raised around. KY's technical location is Central East, and some people don't consider us Southern at all. But I was raised Southern Baptist-so I have a little bit of a Southern belle in me! ;)

Thought so. :D My grandmother is a true Southern woman, and she would just die if one of us grandkids wore a black dress to a wedding. Or red shoes. (Red shoes are for whores and children.)

Who on God's green earth doesn't consider Kentucky to be Southern?!?!

Yeah, but it's not really about physical location, as most "true southerners" don't consider Florida part of "The South", and you can't get much more physically south then FL!

Lots of people from KY don't consider themselves Southern, and lots of people from the South consider KY Northern. I like to stick to actual location of Central East & claim that we're neither. ;)

Your grandmother sounds like mine! Don't you just want to reply "Well, its true. Whores & children have so much in common." :) (J/K)

Thats pretty much what I was getting at-the physical location really has nothing to do with it. :p
