Can you find me a beautiful wedding dress?

Wish list:

Lace, low neck line (v neck maybe?) interesting back and slinky- either fishtail or trumpet style.

I'd really love an interesting back!

I'm a petite five foot three and size 8/10

Go on stylish and beautiful ladies- what can you find me?! I'm currently a 32 week pregnant whale who needs to visualise my wedding dress to cope with the ever growing bump!

Thanks in advance!

I saw your OP and thought 'is she me?' because I want exactly the same style! I've had plenty of evenings searching for my lace fishtail dress!

ohfunnyhoneyface · 06/01/2013 19:39

Eddie one and four are going on my list as contenders!

Do you know who the designers are? Obviously that website is selling copies?

I think you should get the photos and get the dress made.

Will have a search for who made the dresses.

But - WOW!!!!!!

ohfunnyhoneyface · 06/01/2013 19:43

Love that fuzzy!

Would they adjust the front for me to make it lower?

I appreciate I sound a bit boob obsessed, but hey, I am am Essex girl and we're getting married on the beach!

Scroll down and see the comments and Belle Magazine gives you more info.

Rup I think you're onto a good idea there...

I do know a wedding dress shop owner turned seamstress...

Google Vlasta Collu and look at the dress Cape Town. I can't link as I'm on my silly phone. It's not lace but has an interesting back, shape and v front. She is a couturier (and v reasonably priced - compatible with regular shop bought wedding dresses) and would probably make it for you in lace.

She made my dress and it was exquisite

Do you like this one?

Ritva Westenius dresses are lovely, so classy.

ohfunnyhoneyface · 06/01/2013 19:57

Owls I can't find it!

ohfunnyhoneyface · 06/01/2013 19:58

Folly I really like it- do you know if there are any better front facing photos?

Cymbeline ? Their lace is beautiful and so light .

TheFollyfootandtheivy · 06/01/2013 20:13

Here you go - its the second pic. Am biased as I had a Ritva Westenius but the lace and silk are exquisite, and the dress is made to your height.

ILikeOwls · 06/01/2013 20:15

www.vlastacollu.com/. Then go to bridal collection and its the 3rd image I think...

Folly it is lovely- I think I would want something more close fitting though. Being made for my short height would be good though!

OP posts:
ohfunnyhoneyface · 06/01/2013 20:18

Owls- it's very pretty, but I think I'd want to make so many changes, I'd be creating a totally different dress.

Thank you though!

ohfunnyhoneyface · 06/01/2013 20:19

Miss alien- is that a dress or designer?

OP posts:
ILikeOwls · 06/01/2013 20:20

Exactly what I did onfunny Grin best experience ever codesigning it with Vlasta

TheFollyfootandtheivy · 06/01/2013 20:21

This one?

bangersmashandbeans · 06/01/2013 20:28

I've got no idea how to do links but have a look at Jenny packham gowns

ohfunnyhoneyface · 06/01/2013 20:30

Wow folly- apart from the dinosaur like detail on the train, I love that one!
