After his second go-around on The Bachelor, Brad Womack will hand out his final rose in tonight’s finale episode. But will it go to Emily Maynard or Chantal O’Brien? While we wait to find out, we caught up with the show’s stylist Cary Fetman to get the inside scoop on the ladies final looks.

Fetman handpicked 15 dresses based on their individual styles. Chantal went for a rich hunter green one-shoulder David Meister dress with a translucent chiffon overlay accented with a flower and feathers. He chose a bold color to play off her fun personality. “She’s dark and gorgeous,” he said. “She knows her body and embraces her curves.” (The label confirmed to InStyle that it will remake the gown and will be available on DavidMeister.com for $570 in a few weeks.) Emily, however, took a lighter approach. She loved the first dress she tried on, Fetman told us, a golden Tadashi Shoji gown from the designer’s spring 2010 collection (no longer available). “It’s simple and beautiful.” Both ladies paired their looks with Badgley Mischka shoes and jewelry.

Regardless of who gets the final rose, both women do get to keep their dream dresses. “One season, I had to take a $15,000 Pamela Dennis gown back,” Fetman said. “There’s nothing worse—especially for the girl who lost—to ask for it back. Now we buy everything so they can keep it.” Oh, and what about Brad? The black Dolce & Gabbana suit he wore became his obsession! “Brad kept asking to wear it throughout the season,” Fetman said. “And every time, I told him to save it for the last day.” Watch a sneak peek of the finale below.

Who do you want to get the final rose: Chantal or Emily? Tell us in the comments!

I haven’t watched the whole season but I think Emily will win!

I would love to see Emily get the final rose tonight. She seems like a great mother to her daughter. She’s all round well mannnered young woman. No drama with her. When i first saw her come out the car in the first episode of this season I knew that she would be one of the final two. She just glows. She lights up the room with her smile. She’s a very classy lady.. Go girl. I wish you all the best. Good luck.

I hope Emily gets the final rose tonight. She deserves to be happy and has handled every situation with grace. I like when she said she wanted her daughter to be proud of her when she is older and watches the show.

My money is on Chantal. They’ve always had an easy going relationship, everything just clicks. Emily seems to hold back; Brad’s home date with her was AWKWARD with the little girl. And then saying he wouldn’t kiss her cuz her daughter was upstairs?? The spark isn’t there, plain and simple. They just don’t have an easy going vibe like him and Chantal.

-Louise on March 14th, 2011

They both seem like great girls, but I definitely think it’s going to be Emily. Brad just seems so in love with her that I can’t imagine it turning out differently. Excited to find out tonight!

-Lauren R. on March 14th, 2011

Emily and Brad are engaged. You can take that to the bank.

-Karen on March 14th, 2011

I’m thinking Emily. They seem to have great chemistry!

-Valerie on March 14th, 2011

I love the hunter green dress!

-Kim on March 14th, 2011

While I do think Chantal is very funny and has a big personality, I think Brad will choose Emily. He has made his feelings for her very clear throughout the entire process. Time and time again he bent the rules in order to spend time with her or make her feel happy. She is someone he can take care of, but someone who still makes him nervous. I don’t think he and Chantal would work very well together as a married couple, but who really knows if Brad and Emily will work instead?
I’m thinking he will choose Emily.

-Lindsay on March 14th, 2011

EMILY without a doubt! Brad & Emily’s chemistry is undeniable as seen throughout the season. She is so mature & sophisticated for her age, a real class act. She seems patient, kind and loving, a genuine soul. She is beautiful through and through and Brad suits her perfectly! I would love to see them marry and have beautiful children. Ricki would be so lucky too! Brad seems to be a changed man, over time that’s inevitable, and ready to become a husband and father. I truly hope he & Emily live happily ever after! They deserve one another.

Chantal, single for about a year, is a dependant, immature, spoiled brat. She needs to date more and not be so eager to run down the aisle again. Become your own person and not look for someone to fulfill you.

-Leanne on March 14th, 2011

Definitely Emily. I love her! She is such a kind and sweet woman.

-AJ on March 14th, 2011

I am not a fan of Chantal’s dress, especially for the occasion. However, I do think Chantal will be the one Brad chooses. Can’t wait to see the finale tonight!!! :)

-Jill on March 14th, 2011

I like Emily. I can’t wait to see this episode. I like Chantal’s dress better though in the picture so I can’t wait to see how they look on the show.

-Jen L on March 14th, 2011

BRAD YOU ARE THE BEST AND I LOVE YOUR PICK EMILY SEEMS TO BE A VERY CLASSY LADY.LUVE YOU BOTH

-TERESA on March 15th, 2011

Both choices were beautiful on the women, but a little expensive for the average gal. Check out some of Emily Maynard’s finale episode dresses on a budget at: http://the-budgetista.com/2011/03/11/emily-maynards-dresses-from-the-bachelor-finale/

Al I can say is Brad made me very happy when he picked Emily. She is classy,elegant,gorgious,stunning.Brad made my night,I cried I was so happy for Emily,I truely did not want Brad to hurt her,after all she has been threw. I see what a changed person Brad is now. He LOVES Emily so very much,you could see how breathless he was around her every time he was with her.If Brad controls his temper,they will be the happiest couple. This finale was by far the BEST EVER on the show.What a beautiful couple they make.They compilment one another.Brad,not only proposed,but he proposed to Emily with a child, little Ricki,to be a father and a dad.You know,any man can be a father,but it takes a bigger man to be a dad.Emily is surely a wonderful mom,and I know Brad will fit right in with them.Emily needs not to be so tuff on Brad.Emily will be the best wife for Brad he could ever find.I do see a bright future for them,marriage, a few more children,and a wonderful life together.I wish them much happiness and a forever life together.Brad will put Emily on a petastol,if she allows him to be the very best husband to her.I do not think there is anything Brad would not do for Emily.He truely LOVES Emily so very much,he looks to be the happiest man on earth right now.They are so right,if the press,media and everyone stays out of their business,no bad rumors,no lies,no garbage,just leave them alone,they will be better off. Whats her name,would of been very bad for Brad.Very imature,goffy,she had nerve to tell Brad “he better put a ring on her finger.” What,that was so not right, bad. Congradulations to Brad and Emily.oxoxoxoxxx

Sad to say ….I just dont think Emily and Brad will make it through. just so many things looked off for what should be a happy couple at the after rose ceremony…but like many of us romantics, would love them to have happily ever after!

-Connie on March 16th, 2011

Chantal looked beautiful, would like to know where she got the earrings, and can I buy them that, she wore at the final rose ceremony, with the black feather dress. I think Brad picked the wrong woman.

-Sandra on March 17th, 2011

Chantal look beautiful at the final rose ceremony. Where did she get the earrings, and can I get them, that she wore with the black feather dress. I think Brad picked the wong woman.

-Sandra Valade on March 17th, 2011
