Dress help!

That looks like a Lusan Mandongus to me.

I loved them, but they're not very structured, so they didn't suit me sadly.

I tried on a couple at Ellie Sanderson in Beaconsfield, and from memory, they retail at about £1800

I am also getting married on 31st may 2014... 1 year and 1 day to go! I love that dress too!

OH MY GOD - THAT'S ME... AND THAT'S MY DRESS!!!!

Wow. This is quite surreal.

David Stubbs told me "The Dress" had received some lovely comments and sent me the link to your post - (he's a fabulous photographer and a great source of random wedding tips too, by the way!)

It is indeed a Lusan Mandongus LM1913, from the 2010 collection. The broach belongs to my mother-in-law and was my 'something borrowed'.

The White Closet in West Didsbury have a good selection in stock, but their sales tactics can be sneaky and everything tends to be way overpriced! (They had it on sale and let me get my card out at the till before mentioning another woman was interested and would have first dibs - unless I paid full whack!!!)

So i had a little cry in Tescos, drank a lot of cheap wine, trawled the internet and got lucky. Twist-of-fate kind of lucky, in fact, as i ended up buying "The Dress" from a (happily married) lady called Laura on Pre-loved for £800 - half the price!!! As such, i would be happy to pass on the good fortune...

it was originally a size 8, but has since been taken in quite a bit (and could do with a trip to the dry cleaners!) I will try to post some more pics and get the exact measurements - just in case there are any takers...?!?

If you're looking for a stockist for his dresses I bought mine from Ava Rose in Barrowford - although they do have three shops located in various places (they have a website). They were the only stockist near me that stocked Annasul Y dresses. My dress is a Lusan Mandongus/ Annasul Y dress - think they must have collaborated on the new collection!

Good Luck x

Hi Holster86,

I'm not sure where you are based (or your size) but I tried this dress on in SWOON in West Byfleet last weekend. At least, I think it is the same dress. The link to it is here: http://www.swoonweddinggowns.co.uk/item.do?item=2865. However, this dress is from Annasul Y, not Lusan M.... that is the exact dress that you have seen. It felt amazing on, but I needed a bit more structure around the boobage area, so I had to let it go.

Hello Charlo1979,

I know it's been a while but I just wondered if you were still considering selling you dress or have you already sold it as I am also looking for this dress for my wedding next summer x

Annasul Y and Lusan Mandongus are different branches of the same company
