Cute but wrong colors.

Too bright, but at the same time, more true to what a peacock's colors are. THERE IS NO PURPLE ON A PEACOCK IS THERE?

Wedding Dress
Color My World

I want to do multiple layers of color. I may or may not have a white dress, but right now I'm thinking not.

I was thinking a bunch of colors in my dress, and then coordinating single colors in the bridesmaids. Or I wear white and they each have patterned/colorful dresses.

I'm really thinking peacock theme right now. And I think that wearing a colorful dress or a white dress is perfectly capable of personifying that.

If you know where to get a dress in very close colors to the original idea picture, that would be wonderful. I know that that dress will be hard to find since it is no longer in the making.

Have you considered going to a seamstress and having her make the dress for you? You could get just what you want!
Best of luck! This idea is really cool.

PS If I remember correctly, the woman in that dress went into a prom dress shop and just found this dress. Maybe that could happen for you too! Just go shopping around in prom dress stores! :-D

Thanks for the help, sorry I got caught up in other things.

The seamstress idea is good, especially since there's no real set date yet. It may come to that if I keep my heart set on it. The other dresses are cute but haven't had the same kind of wow as the first. Oh well. ?

And I recall the designer being like Mori Lee or something? It's just from like over two years ago and hard to find.

Thanks for the support.

I actually used to run a bridal shop.  I am getting a regular bridal gown but I called the company and asked them what colored fabrics they could make it out of.  It is costing me a little more but my gown is going to be a cross between royal blue and royal purple, and totally unique!!  I a getting mine from Allure Bridals.  It never hurts to ask so ask the bridal shop when you are looking at dresses.

I hope this will help. Not as colorful as you are looking for, but true to peacock colors. It's expensive, but I don't know how expensive wedding dresses are.

Maybe this will be more if what you are looking for. It says on the website that you could have them add your own colors.

I found where the girl got her dress. The brand is a Mori Lee and she got it at Trendy Too shop in California. Here's the link.
