Birmingham Dress Lady!!!!!!

mrs_lewis_2b, 26 February, 2011 at 18:27 Posted on Planning 0 8

Well, me and my bridesmaids have just got back from a trip to Birmingham to see the Birmingham Dress Lady!!!! I was nervous at first at what the shop would be like and the quality of the dresses.... but I had no cause for concern!! The lady was lovely and there were loads of dresses to try on in all sizes (unlike bridal shops!!). The quality of the dresses are beautiful!!!

The 2 adult bridesmaids picked the chiffon one shouldered dress:

And the lady said she'd make the junior ones identical - but she'd make them with two shoulder straps so they looked more younger!!!

All 4 dresses came to £180!!! and they will be ready in 5 weeks!!!

When we pick them up I'll do a flash!! Smiley smile

    Love the dress. I was a bridesmaid last year and wore the same colour. It's gorgeous.

    How did you go about visiting her shop? Did you just go along or did you have to make an appointment?

    Its a great shop isn't it? I went 2 weeks ago so mine should be here in a month. I ordered 2x bridesmaides and one for a younger bridesmade (the same dress) and two flowers girls. It is a bit of a way for me so im having them posted and having the final alterations (if needed) nearer to me but it was £200 for it all.

    appart from a Sunday you just turn up, it is worth a ring though just incase for some reason its closed !!!!

    Its just a shame neither if my bridesmaid like the dresses but i realy wanted them so tough! i am hopeing when they fit properly and they have their shoes make up etc they will love them !!!

    Nice dress choice!

    I didn't realise she's got a shop as well. Do you know what it's called?

    I've heard so many good things on here about her that I think I'm going to look into going to her with my bridesmaids.
