Sooo DP proposed. Not a complete suprise but second time for both of us.
We will have a tiny wedding but what to wear? I am in my 40's, greying hair, don't want to wear a big white gown. Help . . .

Congratulations! What about a tea length dress, look at Brighton belle by true bride. I didn't want a full length dress so got one of theirs, I loved it www.truebride.co.uk/733/Brighton-Belle

Sounds as if you’re already apologising for being a bride! Congratulations, anyway! Flowers

What do you want to wear? A glamorous evening gown? A little Chanel (alike) tweed suit in off-white or cream or bright pink?

(Please say if you’re wanting something from Bombshell - so I can withdraw from the thread.)

What size are you? How do you usually dress? And how much do you want spend?

I bought a lovely dress from Seasalt and I still wear it now as my best dress. Money was a bit tight so I didn’t want to waste it on a dress I would only wear for a few hours. So wear what you like and enjoy your day!

Congratulations!!!
What do you want to wear? Wear that 🙂.

I wore the attached in similar circumstances.

It's on my mind too  I'm loving those dresses @justanotherlaura

Still nothing set here though. I would probably end up with something from monsoon

This from Zara?

Or this from Matches

Or - gosh, this is gorgeous!

Also some suggestions from MaxMara:

Oh I just love the "Frances" design. Perfect for a non weddingy wedding dress. Love it!

I wore a tea-length cream dress. It was lovely.

CountryCousin · 10/10/2022 17:28

A few things from Cos Atelier:

White tuxedo.

Black cocktail frock.

Mini dress.

These threads are always so much more worthwhile fun when the OP who has asked for suggestions actually returns to the thread …

I wore a cream motb type dress fir my 2nd wedding and I was 51. Top half of dress was lacy overlay wth a straight skirt to just below my knee. It was bridal ish and I wore a jewelled comb in my hair and carried a small posy.

That purple MaxMara monstrosity with the Gregory Porter helmet. You’re having a laugh surely? Are you seriously suggesting that would be a good look for a bride? Or for any sane person come to that?

ShippingNews · 17/11/2022 05:32

I had a dress made, first time ever. A pink sheath dress, with a little lace bolero. He wore a white suit with a pink shirt. We both felt great. You wear anything you like, throw away other people's expectations and do what you like. Congratulations!
