I am getting handfasting on Beltane and need a dress.

I want green, any shade
The more unusual the better
I am size 18-20
Not sure what style but don't want the medieval style
I like the sewn in capes from shoulder to shoulder
I like ombre, dip dyed fabric or velvet, or embroidered fabric
I like a fitted bodice

Help please!

Thought this might suit, with the mini cape.

But you'll know their range already!

The Dark Angel do some gorgeous gowns and I believe they will tweak existing designs as well as doing completely bespoke stuff.

A lot of their dresses are typical medieval-goth but they do other styles as well. The Athena dress is lovely and they can do it in other colours.

Chotronette is gorgeous, going to have a proper look
Budget about £300

That one's stunning, and I was going to suggest it but thought it was a bit medieval.

I love this holy clothing dress. Thought it was the one posted earlier but the sleeves are different. I would have worn it for handfasting but worn a few times

My feeds are full of ads for beautiful dresses now! Sadly they don't all look 'kosha'.

Found this sewing pattern. Going to attempt this in the same colours

Thanks for the review site @Trumpton
@Celticfaery that dress is gorgeous, but I don't want a medieval type dress as all my friends have had similar

I think The Dark Angel's Athena dress is stunning.

You are brave to attempt that dress pattern OP!
