"How about this?" Jessica held up a gorgeous white dress. It was beautiful, but not Brooke's style.
"No. It's pretty, but not for me." It was beautiful, but so were the forty eight gowns that were shown. She felt bad, she could tell her friends were getting tired. So was she, she was exhausted from running around all day. At least Sonya found a dress. It was a gorgeous champagne color maid of honor dress. Since Brooke and Winston were still deciding on the details, she didn't care less about the floor length. Sonya's dress was beautiful. Floor length, open back, with a sheath v neck neckline. Sonya was nervous about showing her the dress, but when Brooke saw it, she loved it. It was very New York, very classy. She knew she wanted to get married in Sweet Valley, but she wanted a New York theme. Hmm. Winston wanted to marry in Hawaii, but how about a compromise? Sweet Valley was their home. Have a New York theme for the night and Hawaii for the day. Or a tropical theme with a New York aesthetic background. Or whatever. She didn't want to be a bridezilla, but she also wanted a classy theme. Looks like Winston and her need another talk.
Lila was getting tired. She looked at the gowns herself and agreed with Brooke. They were too meh for her. She remembered Jessica's and Elizabeth's dresses from that Broadway show. Wonder if the owner had any bridal gowns. Lila was willing to pay.
"Jess. Liz. Where was that shop where you bought those gorgeous gowns?"
Oh my god. They weren't kidding. The clothes in there were exceptional. Lila was in love. She seen and wore clothes from every famous designer on Earth, but this woman put even Chanel to shame. Looks like she found herself a new designer.
Brooke was asking Carla about a custom gown. Carla said she doesn't design gowns, but when Brooke offered her a ton of money, Carla only agreed if it wasn't a complicated design. Brooke agreed, she always hated looking like a giant cupcake. While her and Carla with the twin's input, were discussing designs, Lila was looking around for any dresses for her engagement to Bruce. She knew she wanted white. Not because of the engagement, but because of her pregnancy.
Mrs Lila Fowler-Patman. Baby Patman. What name should she pick? As she was blankly looking around, she saw The Dress. It wasn't white, but a cream colour one shoulder sheath dress. Lila was in love. Understated, elegant, oozing with class. She had the shoes and jewelry already. She couldn't wait to propose. She didn't bother checking the price. It was hers.
Brooke was dead tired. She couldn't wait to go home. She and Carla agreed on the design. She knew she wanted a old school glam look, so with the twin's help, she picked out a form fitting white dress designed with a thirties motif. She wanted to be like her idol Jean Harlow. It has splashes of colour, to match Sonya's dress. She had to fly back to New York for her fittings, but no matter, she was ready.
They thanked Carla and left the shop. Lila was possibly getting engaged, Brooke was getting married, the twins were speaking, nothing could go wrong.
