Red / Black wedding dresses.......HELP!!!!!!!

hopkins78, 9 of September of 2011 at 17:51 Posted on Planning 0 16

Calling all brides!!

I am MOH for my SIL and she is desperate for a black or deep red wedding dress but we are really struggling to find any! So far we have found (and tried on) Mori Lee 1651 in black but that is literally it! We have found plenty of ivory gowns with black sashes but she wants something more dramatic and sassy...

Has anyone got any ideas of dresses or sites that we could check out???

Thanks,

Sarah xxx

    Try looking for prom gowns or bridesmaids dresses, or even ballgowns. You can find burgundy dresses though.

    I'm having something like this:


    But it's corset and skirt instead of a dress and I'm having it made to measure.

    I drive past this place most days at work - it's not cheap but they have some amazing black or red dresses. Usually have one ivory and one red/black in the window.

    Shop site:

    I think they are pretty expensive, but very lovely!

    I'm not sure where you are but in Birmingham there is a couture shop and they make bespoke dresses.

    It's at The Custard Factory in Digbeth ,only 2 minutes walk from Selfridges

    I think the white and black color is old fashion .My suggestion is to pick the other color and it would be great.Perfect wedding dress will attract the more people.It is very important thing.I was surprised to see all wedding dresses websites are offering red as an alternative to white for their dresses. I can't imagine a bride wearing a red dress.

    Pumpkins & Dragonflies in Folkestone have a gorgeous huge red dress, although i'm not sure who the designer is.
