I went to a wedding fair yesterday and on the cat walk was a woman wearing the most enormous dress i'd even seen in real life - it reminded us all of the ones from My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding and it got me to thinking - are any of you ladies going for a 'Gypsy' style dress or having a huge meringue??
Just being nosey! x

definitely not ... I'm 5ft 1 and it would drown me! Also, I wouldn't want to be left with scars on my hips!

im 4ft 11 so def not either. Plus they are too heavy and thick and i couldnt deal with that all day x
CommentAuthorSteph-Hughes-2b
no way, i couldn't have a heavy dress on cutting into me all day getting all hot and sweaty
CommentAuthorUnknown
my dress is quite big but any bigger and i think it would look stupid! i couldnt be dealing with being in pain all day and haing scars for th rest of my life! xx
I don't do big dresses and my height could be a problem if i were to have one :S
CommentAuthorCroc
my dress is huge.. and has a 22 layer underskirt although not as heavy as a gyspy dress as they are made from thick tuille and mines made of silk but its massive and i love it ... but in heels i am 6ft so i can work it!!

Ooh and i'd actually like to be able to sit at the table properly instead of climbing over chairs showing my Underwear to the whole congregation!
CommentAuthorXLittleMissMe!X
My hips and bum are big enough as they are without more fabric making me look even bigger!

CommentAuthorKirsty4Paul
I keep calling mine a big fat gypsy dress ha ha its not as bad as that but its got a big tulle skirt and makes me feel like cindarella! its gotta be done tho :)
CommentAuthorclaireandpete
I'm only 5Ft so big dresses don't work with my height but everyone likes their own style, would be boring if all wedding dresses were very similar.
CommentAuthorMrsSnedden2B
Mines is a wee bit big but not gyspy wedding style lol x
CommentAuthorekielty(now Trow)
Mine is a normal A LINE dress, its big enough for me! i dont know how the girls walked in those mahoooosive dresses! xx

CommentAuthormelvis

CommentAuthortweedwedding
Wow, a real mixed bag!
Although no takers for a proper 'gypsy' style dress! I'd like one that goes out a bit, but not that wide as my aisle is quite narrow!!
CommentAuthorXLittleMissMe!X
What gets me about the dresses on big fat gypsy is that non of them fitted them properly. To say they were made to measure they all were badly fitted around the boobs.
CommentAuthorxxhan87xx
i thought id want a huge one but in the end i went with something frilly rather then puffy its big enough though and wont see it with a petticoat til friday so may be bigger x

Maybe they like having the 'girls' out on display - so really they're fitted to how they want, rather than what 'normal' people would deem as properly!!
CommentAuthorXLittleMissMe!X
You never know but its not what I call a good look to have them hanging out like that.
CommentAuthortweedwedding
Don't get me wrong, I don't want mine on display either - well only a little bit! - but as we've seen from those awful pictures that were put up the other week of the worst dresses, others think that a little bit of material is ok!!
CommentAuthorsuzky123
i vowed to never ever wear one but mum got upset so i put it on and didnt want to take it off.... however, as my friend said, mine looks very classy so theres no way it could look gypsey but I must admit it still worrries me slightly. Pics in profile if anyone wants a nosy

suzky123 - I think your dress is lovely, not 'gypsy' like at all!!
