Contest Brief

More photos will follow tomorrow having trouble uploading with the iPad.

Hi,

I am looking for sme inspiration for my wedding dress.
To like something I need to love it. And when I see the right thing I know that's it!
The problem is that I have looked at hundreds or even thousands of wedding dresses online and I just cannot see it happening...

Now this contest is for you to post designs of dresses only, not to make the dress. If of course I can tell that you understand what I am after I would consider the opportunity for you to make the dress, too.

I hope that you will see this contest as a bit of a challenge but one that is fun for you at the same time. This will be my magical day and I would like even the preparations to be a bit different (such as posting this ;).

Alright, here is the brief:
I want a dress which is beautiful, not too sexy but also not too conservative. It needs to be soft, but heavy (as in material) at the same time. I probably would prefer strapless but I would consider a very soft type of pearly/beady/diamondy strap type (maybe just one) if at all. I don't want the dress to be over and over with diamonds as I don't care for them. I do like little nick nacks though as long as they are nice and not kitschy.
I would like a vintage style dress, something like in the 19hundreds but combined with some modern touches. I would like a majestic dress which is at the same time somewhat playful.
I am quite slim, a size 8 in regular clothes. Slim hips and ok boobs (not huge though). I am about 168cm, blond and have short hair.

I know that some of the things I listed in the brief sound a bit like they wouldn't make sense, but this is why I am posting it here. The dress I want is not out there...

Cannot wait to see some ideas. I have attached a few photos for inspiration (but not what I want), and a photo of myself.

Thank you!
Any questions please ask.
