Re: The Shirt Waist Wedding Dress

I don't care for it.  The top just looks like a casual white blouse.  I know if I were getting married and going to the expense and trouble of picking out a long gown, I would want something that looked pretty and special - not something that looked every day and ho-hum.

Split the skirt up the front, put on a pair of slim pants and it looks like something Lucy would wear on her show.

 

Actually, I like it for a second wedding or a formal affair.

 It's Naeem Khan. More surprising is that there is an entire line of wedding pantsuits! Some are quite nice but they all seem appropriate for second weddings and/ or mature brides
