  • I went Dress shopping with one of my bridesmaid's and i shose a taffeta strapless dress which i fell in love with!! However... I am the worst decision maker in that i either procrastinate or make a quick deciion and then start second guessing myself!!! I'm made the mistake of calling the boutique where i had bought the dress from and asking what exactly my dress was made of... She said polyester taffeta!! I was shattered, being so naive about fabrics hearing the words polyester broke my heart. Is Polyester taffeta tacky? or is it commone for Wedding dresses? I'm too embarressed to ask anyone else and i want to knwo whther i made the right descions?? I love the dress and guess i'm not too bothered by the fabric however i don't want to be standing up there on the day with people saying how awfully tacky the fabric is...... I guess my question is Is taffeta still considered nice and can you tell between silk taffeta and blend taffeta fabrics?? and also will i be terribly hot? We're having an early March wedding next year. Read more »
