Found perfect vintage wedding dress BUT too small - help!

[jemimarose]

I really want to surprise my best friend and find this dress. She is super gorgeous and super tall - 6 foot and a curvy 12, the dress in question is an 8. She spotted dress on ASOS market pace and has look at Etsy, Oxfam Bridal, Ebay and no success. We are both teachers, tight budgets, no time and the wedding is next year. Can you find the dress or similar? TIA.

Not the same dress but a similar kind of vibe maybe?

Good luck with the dress hunting

Looks great to me! I have forwarded to my friend....almost finished for the day - sixth form teacher - so can continue with hunt soon. Cheers again furrysheep :)

I actually think the dress furrysheep fond is prettier and more flattering.

*found

much prefer furrysheep's one

A beautiful alternative from furrysheep, hope she likes it

It looks a lot like a nightie.

Yep, far prefer furrysheepsone.

Hi there, friend liked it but prefers the first one, more modest and prettier but the other one is back up. The hunt continues ....

Try the M&S nightwear department?

Why not have a look at vintage patterns and get a local seamstress to make one?

I follow a vintage dress shop on Instagram called

dressedinhistory.com

Doesn’t look like you can return items though, but they do give you all the measurements.

vintage size 12 so might be too small now.
