Me too! We got married in 2002! I loved that Amsale blue ribbon dress but strapless was not a good look on me.

The first row, second dress from the left. The back view. Are those human shoulders? Something has gone wrong.

The strapless top always hangs way down, exposing practically their whole chest. Why not a dress with some kind of straps or sleeves to hold it up? It drives me crazy how clueless they are.


Because it makes good t.v.

Does Pnina have some deal with the show? It seems suspicious that she always seems to be hanging around the store. They never mention another designer by name.

PP here. When I said provocative, I was thinking about the women who have their boobs falling out of their dress. I did not realize we had progressed to showing off our nether regions!

I know!!! I saw one where the bride was obsessed with wearing a Pnina. She chose one (was not having it lined) and I swear the sheerness went almost all the way down to her hoo-ha (or shall I say "down there?")


Technically it's "pubis mons", and in some of those dresses the groom and everyone else will be able to tell if it's bare or not. (Is that another discussion?? LOL)

No, you're in good company.


Yes you are. As soon as they say "Pnina" I'm thinking "oh goody, here we go.."

Some of the brides and families who come in seem to think that the more expensive the dress, the better it's got to be. I've seen some gorgeous ones that were in the $2-3,000 range, but noooo, they feel it has to be $10,000 and up with all the bells and whistles. Money sure can't buy taste.

You mean her vulva or genital region?

I think Monty has better taste than some of the brides. He's all about classic and elegant!

Nope. I think they're trashy too. I'm always surprised how many brides ask for them and how many family members say they love them. They're just awful.


Yes, I can't believe when the parents say they love those dresses! Maybe they're appropriate for some venues, but I can't imagine someone walking down a church aisle in one.

On another board, those dresses are referred to as "stripper fairy" dresses. Perfect description, I think.


Excellent!
