By now, you must have seen the two-hour finale of Gossip Girl. What a show, right?! We can’t say we’re happy they ended it, but that episode was by far one of the best and one that we will remember.

We can’t help but feel a little sentimental as well. We’re not hardcore fans, but we seriously enjoyed the fashion. It’s indisputable that the show created a certain trend, much like Sex and the City.

And the dresses, oh the dresses; we can’t say enough good things about the dresses featured on the show.

Speaking of which, we will talk about the stunning gowns Blair Waldorf and Serena van der Woodsen wore to their respective weddings in the finale.

Like their hair color and their personalities, the ladies wore two very different dresses. Blair (Leighton Meester) kept it feminine and romantic by wearing an exquisite hand-beaded figure-skimming lace gown (in blue!) by Elie Saab when she tied the knot with Chuck.

Serena (Blake Lively) opted for a more glam and princess-worthy dress in gold and white from Georges Chakra Couture when she wed Dan Humphrey (Penn Badgley) five years later.

Hers was a strapless creation with a liquid gold bodice and a poufy skirt.

Such fantabulous dresses, yes? They’re quite the eye candy, and both are equally stunning. If you had to pick, whose dress would you go for?
