The first and last I think are the best. Probably because of the pose.

Now that's what I call "trashing the dress" shots, at last someone has a real good go at it - #2 is my favorite.

I don't understand the point in people doing this? Why ruin such an expensive dress?

Hehe... in this case the dress cost $50 :D it wasnt ruined though.. fully washable and dry cleanable... and its now back to how it was :D It just got a bit wet and some sand

I guess some people wonder what they might do with the dress after the fact.. some trash the dress shots are nowhere near as extreme I guess.

The big white dress, in the first and second shots was easily the most trashed. Draged it over slim covered rocks, the works. It even turned yellow from the water.
I saw it a week later and it looked brand new again.
Glad you like them.

Other than the artistic appeal in the contrast, I also wondered what the point was.
But, it turns out it is a huge amount of fun, possible one of craziest shoots I have ever done, we didn't stop laughing the whole way through.
