Help me find a long red velvet frock to get hitched in...

a bit like this one?

I do love this dress but I would really prefer it without the thigh-high split...and ideally with a bit of a puddle train at the back.

Does such a thing - or similar - exist? Suggestions welcome!

@mrsdimmond Snap!

I can't make my stupid phone link to it but the Laura Byrne gilda gown sounds like what you're looking for, I've wanted it for ages!

Is £330 too much money?
It says
Get the red carpet look in this fabulous gown by Nataliya Couture. Featuring a bardot neckline, and a fit that flatters the figure beautifully. The dress is completed with a silver waistband which contrasts beautifully against the colour of the dress.

Peeas, that's lovely but I'd rather have a wee bit more coverage on my arms. They have this though which is pretty fabulous

Lux Fix might be worth a look.

Peeas yours looks like the dress I wore for my grad ball!

Op sorry nothing much to contribute except to say to remember a good seamstress can eg make a split not quite as high

Congratulations on your impending nuptials
