"The quality of talent that presents itself each year always amazes us," said Susan Bain, one of the founders of Cheap Chic Weddings. "This year's entries included several dresses that had intricate details like faux embroidery, ruffles, pleats and even lace effects."
Laura Dressman, P&G External Relations Manager, added: "We're inspired by these dresses and couldn't imagine a better way to showcase the brand in a fun and unique way. Congratulations to Susan Brennan and all the finalists on their fantastic designs."
The models described the dresses as unusually heavy but comfortable to wear.
