Which Is The Least Fair Of Them All?

As a person who very firmly refuses to ever look at again, not to mention let anyone else ever look at any photograph taken of me between the ages of, oh let's say seven and 27, because they are just too humiliating, let me first offer my sincere admiration to all the contestants in our Ugly Bridesmaid Dress contest.

Three cheers! You ladies are gutsy!

And so are your bride friends for asking you to wear such things.

But one of you will be the winner of a brand new, and beautiful bridesmaid dress from Shabby Apple! So, it was all worth it.

Right?

Below, please feast your eyes on our contest finalists. Once you are done cringing, vote for your favorite (Click here to take survey). We will announce the lucky lady by the end of the week.


Dress 1


Dress 2


Dress 3


Dress 4



Dress 5


Dress 6






And then all of you should burn those pictures.

No offense.

But seriously.

May the worst dress win!

Your link is broken.

If I had kept pictures of the horrifically bad Elvira-esque black skirt w/royal blue sequined top for a July wedding in South Texas, well, let's just say that I'm pretty sure I would win. But some pictures should never see the light of day no matter the event/reward. I burned both the dress AND the pictures. No joke.

Well, I have to be fair and say that #4 is hands down the worst, even though I'm competing to win. hahaha I'm dress #5.

GROSS! i will have to go with #3 but seriously it took me about 10 minutes to decide. i would need more proof that #4 is actually a bridesmaid since it just looks 80s prom. also #5 isn't bad, it looks like the manhattan shabby apple dresses but just the color is off. i would cry if i had to wear #2 or #3.

For those that think that #4 might be a Prom Dress, let me reassure you, it is not! I wore dresses of my choice for Prom, this was not my choice (#4). The thing was UGLY...sadly but truly UGLY! But vote away, and may the ugliest dress WIN! Good Luck to us all!

3... This is me... let me give you a little history about this dress!

We were called everything from Princess Fiona to Potato sack bag! LOL Worst Part: The bride thought we looked great! Still does. It was last year- 2009 lol

Dress 2
Believe me, I had to wear that dress too. And while you can't see it in the picture that worst part about that dress is that the darts made everyone look like thay had pointy nipples. AAh!
Hmm... maybe that's why we are all holding things in front of our chests.

Dress 3 deserves double points. It's hard to look like you churn butter for a living in this new millennium. Was the quality of bridesmaid dresses sacrificed for good photography?

My vote goes to #2. Number four is bad, but really it just looks like a nasty prom dress.

April 8, 2010 10:23 AM

#2 for sure. It reminds me of those cheep princess nightgowns they sell at walmart. #4 is ugly but I'm sure back in it's day it wasn't all that bad.

Dress #1. Looks like they tried to hard.. and to think that those fat sleeves were meant to be below the elbows...thank goodness someone stepped in and shortened them.

Nunmber 2 or 3 definitly. I'm going to have to say number 2 is the worst though. that pink color is awful and its all bunched and wrinkly!

April 9, 2010 7:49 AM  
Blogger susan said...

i have to go for dress #1 only bc. most of the others look like they came from the 80s so I'm sure they were pretty smashing in their day, whereas dress 1 appears to me like they somehow want to be modern day but something dreadful happened. I assume they got married in spit of.

Blogger andrea k. said...

ok, it's a tie between 3 and 4:
#3 would really only be wearable at some sort of robin hood reenactment [how many of those happen a year/lifetime?]
and #4 wouldn't even be funny at an 80's theme party.. i'd expect her to have to give a valedictorian speech in it!
but i LOVE the golden gate dresses ever so much and am emailing my bride friend today to see if they'll work for her wedding this summer!
