This is my dress,



I need to make a final decision what "cover up jacket" to order.

Originally I bought matching fabric (to my dress), to have a jacket made identical to option 1, the solid ivory satin jacket:


But then I wondered how the next two would look,

Option 2, Lace Jacket


Option 3, Crystal Jacket (most expensive)


WHICH DO YOU THINK WOULD MATCH BEST WITH MY DRESS< SINCE MY DRESS ALREADY HAS A LOT OF DETAIL?

DO YOU THINK OPTION ONE WOULD BE TOO PLAIN? OR MAYBE THE OTHER OPTIONS ARE TOO LOUD FOR A DRESS THAT IS ALREADY CLUTTERED>>>>

AM I GOING TO WANT TO WEAR OPTION 1 ALL NIGHT LONG< a solid, heavy jacket?

I dont like my arms so whatever I have on, is staying...

Thanks for all your help!!!

i agree... I don't think the lace matches. I'd go with the plain jacket or the crystal... If you do go plain, make sure it's not bulky and it'll look great.

I LOVE your dress!!!!

Can you have a plain jacket made like #3 more like a shrug? The dress is SO gorgeous a jacket would look a little cluttered in my opinion. However a light 3/4 length shrug would be very pretty.

I voted for #1. My only comment is that if you can can get a crystal one which matches the pattern on your dress, then I'd say go for it. It'd be more glamerous.

I think because there is no lace in your dress, it might look weird to have a lace bolero. Do you have one you could try on with your dress, to see how it would look?

Good luck with your decision!
