Fancy the vintage look? Very Vintage Bridal
give you a quick tour of dresses that will
flatter brides of every shape and size...
With the current trend for shabby chic and vintage weddings, now is the
perfect opportunity to go vintage for that one all-important detail – the dress.
Whatever your style, you will find something that suits; the 1930s era will
give you that Hollywood siren glamour with figure-hugging and sexy styles.
The 1940s was a time of austerity, and the bridal gowns from this time
reflect this simple, understated elegance.
Dresses from the 1950s and ’60s are perhaps the most popular among
modern brides; with tea-length, voluminous skirts, these gowns epitomise
femininity and the sought after hour-glass figure. The boho hippie chic of the
1970s bride is perfect for those planning free-spirited, relaxed destination
weddings, and the satin and lace of the 1980s are going through a revival
thanks to Kate Middleton’s stunning lace frock.
All of
Very Vintage Bridal
's gowns are refurbished and restored to the
highest possible quality, and where possible, come with a little bit of history
about where they came from and who wore them – spreading the love over
decades. The shop also offers a special section for destination weddings –
meaning you can still have that vintage feel in one of their informal gowns,
which will arrive at your destination in pristine condition.
To finish your look, Very Vintage Bridal also offers vintage and bespoke veils and
underskirts for your dress, as well as an in-house alterations service by their
seamstress to make sure you look as though the dress was made just for you.
The luxurious surroundings of a beautiful Georgian house near Kirkby
Lonsdale and personal friendly service of this boutique shop will leave you
feeling as though you have had the real star treatment. Go the vintage
route, and give a thing of beauty a second chance to be appreciated and
make another bride feel exquisite!
