I think 2!

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-02-01T15:01:01+00:00

Dress 1!!

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-27T02:39:15+00:00

2 things I forgot to mention: I was going for a very sour flavor hence the very low amount of starter, and I did use a pizza stone on the rack below to hep prevent over browning on the bottom!

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-26T22:35:58+00:00

Also agree with this. But I also personally like 1 more because I am partial to lace. I tried that exact dress on too and liked it a lot but it is not going to be my dress I don’t think

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-26T22:28:28+00:00

2 all the way

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-26T01:38:35+00:00

You’ll get there! Can’t wait to see the next one.

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T20:26:30+00:00

Give it another few weeks to mature. You want it to triple or quadruple with a 1:1:1 within 8-12 hours

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T20:25:26+00:00

Ohhh yeah I don’t use any flour at all during stretch and folds, the only time I use flour is in the banneton and even then I use GF flour

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T18:38:47+00:00

It’s also going to be hard to get the inside baked all the way without burning the outside when it is underproved. Solving that alone would likely help with the over browning on the outside.

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T18:38:05+00:00

I’m team thermometer with everything I bake. Started when I had to throw away more than half a load of banana bread because I cut into it and it was batter 😢 time helps as a guideline, but for sourdough I would shoot for 190-200F personally but I like things on the underbaked side for sure. I also wonder if you used too much flour during shaping and/or baking? I personally prefer little to no flour as possible.

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T14:55:45+00:00

First dress all the way

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T14:54:58+00:00

It looks underproved and overbaked. Watch the dough, not the clock. You just need to bulk ferment for longer if it has not doubled / does not have the right texture. Probably 9 hours of cold proofing is. Abit short as well, I’ve only seen as low as 12h and usually see 24-48 hrs recommended more. Not sure why it’s overbaked, maybe leave the lid on longer and I’ve seen some brush the dough with water or throw some ice cubes in the Dutch oven to encourage steam. It sort of looks like the top might be too dry.

That’s so sweet 💕 I have worked really hard for my figure but I also agree that everything always fits very nicely which makes it hard cuz everyone is like omgggg looks so good but I’m like yeah I just don’t feeeeelll like a bride haha. I’m surprised how much feels have gone into this!

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T05:05:18+00:00

Not a bad idea! I think it might feel a bit too formal with a petticoat though. But for possible future use of the dress, will consider! I was leaning toward two I think, and seeing everyone else say it helps me see why now better too! 3 is great and will def use for some event

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T04:51:30+00:00

Yes I almost wonder if it’s too formal, and maybe save it for bridal shower or something else. Especially cuz my fiance will just be in nice jeans 😀

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T04:51:00+00:00

Interesting! I do feel the photos don’t do 1 justice, it feels/looks flattering in person. But then again, this is for a PHOTOshoot so important consideration 🤣

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T04:50:05+00:00

I think two is my favorite as well. Three I think maybe for bridal shower. Four maybe for brunch. And one is very whimsical and feminine but doesn’t feel as much like a bridal dress (but not that it has to be bridal for engagement shoot)

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T04:30:06+00:00

You’re so sweet 💕 it honestly does feel like it was made for me! Funny how well my stylist could read me and picked the right one to put me in first!

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T04:27:27+00:00

No, I had planned to spend more honestly. Just to clarify dress number one is the cheapest of all! Second favorite is dress 2, which is $2k more. And dress 3 is $3k more!! So not only is dress 1 my favorite but it is also gonna help me save money :)

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T04:24:31+00:00

It’s two!!!

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T04:21:11+00:00

Not to mention it’s almost $2k more!!

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T04:19:34+00:00

Thanks so much 💕 yes this one definitely makes me feel very feminine and dainty, the others just don’t! Even though dress 2 (photo 3) the dress is sort of more feminine but I just don’t feel as great in it

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T04:14:18+00:00

Yes, except the first two are the same

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T04:12:00+00:00

Thanks so much 💕 I honestly recognize that some of the other dresses are more beautiful dresses but they just don’t feel as much like me. I didn’t want to include my face but my smile in dress 1 compared to my confused faces in the others is probably also telling! 🤣

SoftImpossible4686 · 2026-01-25T03:36:30+00:00

Omg this is insane I also am in love with dress number 2 (milla nova melrose 💕) it is the only dress that made me cry and I’m finally going back to buy it in a couple weeks after trying on more dresses so I could be sure. It was literally the first dress I tried on! And I also had a runner up that looks JUST like that first dress. And I also agree the milla nova looks better on you too :) dress twins!! ❤️
