amazing on a high fashion model in a
magazine or plain awful on a hanger in the
store, but you won’t know for sure how
it works on you until you try it.When
choosing a nontraditional dress, don’t limit
your shopping to bridal salons. Expand
your search to consignment shops or the
evening gown section of your favorite
department store.
