My fiancé proposed earlier this year and we are currently making our plans for our wedding next summer.
I always loved my mums wedding dress but given its age, I didn't think I'd fit into it.
She passed it to me recently to try and it fits like a glove! (other than the elastics on the shoulder that hold the dress up - easy enough fix).
Ive seen very few dresses like it so I wanted to share some photos. The train is detatchable and absolutely huge! Its not to everyones taste but I'm a sucker for vintage style.
It needs a clean and some of the sequin detailing has yellowed (im gathering they will need replacing or removing entirely). I am curious to know if anyone else wore a vintage dress and was able to get it cleaned up?
This one hasnt been cleaned in over 30 years since it was first worn so I'm slightly concerned. Although I love it so much I'll probably wear it regardless lol!
Edit* Thanks all for the comments, I'll be taking it to the local seamstress to see what magic she can do!
