To ask if any of you got married in this Ian Stuart dress

[mrsmadiba]

...and if so, if anyone would consider selling to me?

It's an Ian Stuart 'Basilica', from 2012. I am a terrible bride and didn't realise you had to order a dress months in advance. I am in love with this dress but can't find it anywhere. I will pay good money for it if anyone is willing to sell! Probably need a size 14 or above though might squeeze into a 12 if I go on a diet.

Really sorry if I've annoyed anyone with the unorthodox use of this forum - it's just I'm really desperate for this dress. Thanks everyone

Fantastic job, well done flowery - MN at its very best

OP you must be so happy - that is such a beautiful dress and it's so nice to see one which isn't strapless/sleeveless with the inevitable boob bulge wobbling above the neckline.

I love MN!

Well done flowery!

Congratulations OP, hope you have a wonderful wedding

Is there such a thing as a "MNer of the year" award? If so, I nominate flowery

Aw how lovely!
Well done Flowery.

Yup, hercules, it really does. This thread made me sooo happy (I'm probably too invested in somebody else's wedding)..

Fantastic thread!!! Lots of luck OP and a huge well done to flowery!!!!

Awwwww what an ace thread! Actually made a wee lump in my throat!

Beautiful dress. Glad you found it!

Don't want to put a dampner on anything but my son ordered something from Australia. When it came they wouldn't let him have it unless he paid some kind of duty on it - which was almost the amount of the item (I think he was buying something for £30 and the duty was £23)! Just check whether you'll have to do the same and if there is something the seller can do her end with the custom's label. This site explains more (although it makes it look as if the duty won't be as much as my son was asked to pay):

Fantastic news!

Amazing! Well done flowery and congrats OP - can't wait to see it!

I love this thread

Well done Flowery

Looking forward to when it arrives OP. Come back and post a photo from the big day please....

Awh what a lovely thread. Well done flowery!

That dress is simply beautiful - what a lovely thread

Annalouise the dress is coming from Austria.

What a fabulous thread.

The dress is beautiful and the finder is a star.

Ah well done flowery and congrats op. It really is a beautiful dress. I'd consider buying it just to wear at home like that episode of friends, 😂

Oh wow what a wonderful thread. I can't wait to hear when the dress arrives - well done Flowery

Annielouise, i think the dress was from Austria not Australia, so i dont think duty will be an issue.

Congrats OP, what a lovely outcome! Brought a tear to my eye.
You must post pics when you get it.

What a lovely thread, hope you have a wonderful wedding day xx

What a great thread! And what a stunning dress!!!!

Wedding dresses come up super small as a rule so they can be taken in! Have a look at 16 or even 18 as well .

Flowery, you are just so brilliant.

Very excited for you OP.

Loving this thread!

Ah, saw this thread this morning, so happy for you, OP

I was a terrible bride too, only ordered my flowers the week before my wedding, couldn't understand why the florist made such a fuss about it...
