Boho Dress special enough for Wedding Reception

20 replies

Help needed!
I am looking for a boho dress, in ivory, with some intricate beading work, in gold/neutral colours. Not strappy or strapless. Don't mind length. Err, but must still look pretty dressy.

I know that is pretty specific but it is what I want, as it is for my wedding reception. I have my actual wedding dress but wanted something less formal for the evening. My bridesmaids have boho, 60's dresses bought last summer from Miss Selfridge, so I want to fit with those.

Budget of £250.00.

Or am I being too precious.

Is it something like style that you're after?

I don't have any specific suggestions but have you tried Jigsaw or Anthropologie?

To get a Jenny packham for £250 you would either need to go second hand or get a copy. Beautiful dresses though and sound exactly like what you are after. Try ebay.

Somebody posted this dress on another thread which I think is really beautiful.

Gerty, try to look instore in Anthrolpologie rather than online if you can. I could be wrong but when I looked in the website there didn't seem to be nearly as much on sale as in store so I wondered if they don't offer their full range on the Internet.

Lots of good advice. Thank you Grin

You need Free People. Filter for white dresses. There are loads, all very boho :)
