Grin I tried on a dress recently and have decided on it as my wedding dress - see photos. The wedding is as the end of May.
PLEASE IGNORE THE SHOES I'M WEARING! They were the only things I had to hand 🙈
I would love help with flower, colours, shoes, hair...all sorts. Please fire away!

Beautiful dress!

Something like these? Is the dress silver silver or warmer silver IYSWIM 😄

They're lovely

Gorgeous dress. Dark green accessories?

saddowizca · 31/01/2022 21:27

@Bunce1

I love it too. Looks a bit like a Temperly London dress?

These shoes or something like these….

I agree with you - exactly what I had in mind - in a different colourway though.

What about these bad boys. Lots of different colours.

Lovely dress - I thought Vampire's Wife! My plan is that If I ever get married again, I'll wear a Vampire's Wife dress.

(I'm no help on the styling, I like the converse!).

Sali hughes had the same dress in green with manolos

It has an Edwardian look. Hair up, silver shoes of the period, flowers in hair.
You have a great figure for that dress - one in a thousand could pull that off - it looks fab on you.

@elaeocarpus hat or veil are lovely. I think Victorian style buttoned boots would go with your dress and arum lillies for a bouquet. They come in masses of different colours so you could go for a pop of colour or something subtle to match your dress.

The Lace and Favour shoes linked up thread are perfect for this dress.

Clymene · 31/01/2022 22:04

I would definitely go for the Esska or temperley ones. I think you risk looking a bit wafty with the Latin dancing shoes. Clumpy heels, really dark roses, hair up, fabulous earrings. You'll look knockout

Thirtytimesround · 31/01/2022 22:16

I think with that style dress some small pale pink rosebuds with green leafy stuff would look fab.

Silver sandles?

Youngstreet · 31/01/2022 22:43

Love the dress. It would look great with a parasol.
Hair up with ringletty bits.
Drop earrings or diamond studs.
Velvet bow shoes.
And one of those flower balls that can hang from your wrist.

Clymene · 31/01/2022 22:49

Those shoes are perfect @Justyouwaitandseeagain 😍

Babamamananarama · 31/01/2022 22:49

LOVE the dress. Would these Esska shoes work? They have them in gold/bronze/silver too.

Nellle · 31/01/2022 23:05

Oh it's gorgeous. Is it The Vampire's Wife?

Definitely hair up with that neckline.

Nellle · 31/01/2022 23:07

Just seen it is VW, ignore me! What a beauty.

MaChienEstUnDick · 31/01/2022 23:13

Beautiful dress. I think you need to think a little thematically. The vintage shoes and birdcage hat with a quite prim, tight little posy, hair up would be gorgeous.

Or you go a bit more funky disco/boho - that would be my preference. @Bunce1's shoes, wildflowers, hair down, maybe a flower crown, quite vampy make up.

OR there's a slight Edwardian vibe there too which would be lots of greenery, a soft puffy up do in the hair and little ankle boots.

So many choices! It really is quite lovely.

LagganBubble · 31/01/2022 23:18

It has a 1920s vibe. I would go for vintage style kitten heels, definitely hair up, but channel your inner Bloomsbury set and go for something loose with a sparkly clip embellishment

No advice, but I love the dress!

Ruthietuthie · 31/01/2022 23:59

You look absolutely beautiful. The minute I saw it, I knew it was Vampire's Wife! (I wish I had an occasion to wear one of their gorgeous dresses).
OK, from a friend, the most important accessory you need is a good bra. The one you are wearing in the photographs (which I am sure you just happened to be wearing) creates little bumps and doesn't give your bust the lift or shaping it needs.
I had the Rachel Simpson mimosa shoes, which are gorgeous, but I love the idea of dark green velvet and a foliage-heavy bouquet.
Wishing you every happiness on your wedding day and after!
