Both the dresses look awful. Poor Catherine, she probably looks so nervous cause he always has such a hard time deciding to keep her around! giggling

Have we speculated why they decided to do a live version of the ATFR?

I had speculated the other day that it was to film the actual proposal....but someone on the board shut that down saying that we "know" they are engaged. But I thought that the only way we "knew" that was through RS who also "knew" that Lindsay was the next bachelorette....

Just interested in others' ideas!

Has it been speculated that maybe the dresses were made locally in Thailand?

Also, I think that this season the live ATFR is the result of both Harrison's love for live shows and to protect the ending, which we all know. Last season was more of a guessing game.

Maybe they have something else up their sleeves...

Veg, I am thinking that they would like the unspoiled public to think the bolded, especially given that people wonder what's up with the letter. And CH does seem to like to do the Live thing!

Happily, I will be watching it from my room at The Buccaneer on St. Croix!

I actually don't mind the dresses, especially Catherine's. After watching the Oscars I noticed that metallics are in right now which may explain the choices. I also like the setting more than some of the recent ones. Back in the early seasons it used to be out at the pool or even inside so I guess anything on an exotic location can't be too bad (except for Emily's & Ben's which could have been so much better).

It's so typical for them to show the f2 smiling and the f1 serious. We know Cat's a smiler so imagine her face lit up as she got closer to Sean. :Nod:

I think this makes sense. I was looking online for some examples and several are more ornate but there are a number of metallic dresses and the one shoulder design that Cat is wearing seems very popular.

So those dresses must have been made in Thailand? When is the fitting? Do three of them get fitted and only the F2 get made? Or is the fitting after F3 elimination? The gold and the silver may mean 1st and second so that would mean after they talked to Sean (after elimination) or perhaps there wasn't any meaninf to it? Do you know?

I think their dresses are ok, it doesn't look so great os stunning, maybe it's just the way it was taken on this pic? Somehow when I look into it the gold color just doesn't look really good on Catherine, but who am I to say, I am not into fashion. The gold/silver, i don't think it's coincidence, maybe their handler is that how you call it? has something to do with it if they knew who is F1.

IMHO, putting Lindsay in the gold dress and Catherine in the silver dress would have been unflattering, colorwise, for either one. And in the end Sean is not really going to care who's wearing what......

by Bronwyn Wed Feb 27, 2013 1:51 pm

The color on my IPad must be off, or my eyes are off one. Lindsay's dress looks like a pale blue to me. Hopefully these dresses look better in motion than they do in still shots, because I don't care for either one of them. If they were a different fabric I might like them better. Don't care for the shiny.

by Kashathediva Wed Feb 27, 2013 2:17 pm

My mac makes Lindsay's dress appear a blue/silver.
I have no issue with the colors, it's the styling. Neither appears to be very flattering and it has nothing to do with simplicity but the way each hangs, almost like a metallic potato sack. Both of these ladies have stunning figures and could have looked stellar in the right gown.
Many formal gowns are made in the "far east" etc, so I don't hang my hat on the way the gowns appear because of where they were made.
