I HATE my wedding dress

I'm getting married next month, my dress has arrived and I hate it. I need to find a new one and fast. Please help?

I have toyed with the idea of non-white dresses, at this rate I'm open to anything. Ideally wanted a midi length pale dress that doesn't look like a bridesmaid dress (The one I have bought is blush and floaty and bridesmaidy). :( :(

What about ghost? This, for example: www.ghost.co.uk/claudia_dress_silver_lake-ds38ca-b37

I was about to suggest monsoon.

That looks like a lampshade. The Asos one is lovely.

That ghost one is beautiful.

Some lovely ones on here, albeit slightly above budget.

Chi chi London do really nice wedding dresses.

Monsoon have some lovely dresses in their wedding dress collection, have a look there or what about Phase Eight, I think they do wedding dresses too ?

Self Portrait have some absolutely gorgeous ready to wear bridal dresses that are a bit different: www.self-portrait-studio.com/bridal-edit/brides They’re not very size-inclusive, though, so might not be what you need.

irregularegular · 19/05/2021 17:25

Or they have some midi options too if you still like that idea www.ghost.co.uk/bluebell-dress-oyster-df52ca-n29

of course, if you don't like a vaguely 1930s type look ( I love it and actually had an original 1930s dress!) then you will hate these!

Try the pre loved wedding dresses uk Facebook page, it's very busy.

mahguy · 19/05/2021 17:26

That looks like a lampshade.

Nonetheless still needle & thread like.

irregularegular · 19/05/2021 17:26

Really love some of those self portrait dresses!

ginoginellizzz · 19/05/2021 17:26

This is where I have recently ordered a dress from. Some fabulous options in all different colours.

There's some second hand bridal dress pages on Facebook. Worth a look. I'm trying to sell a gorgeous 1950s style lace one for my friend who's trying to make space for a new arrival Wink which is why I know about them. I'm having fun browsing, anyway!

BHLDN does international shipping and loads in the sale.

Kitty and Dulcie have a sale on too, you could buy a brightly coloured sash to go round the waist of a white dress to change it up a bit.

MarieIVanArkleStinks · 19/05/2021 17:28

Try Phase 8 or Free People. The latter in particular do some beautiful ones.
