This classic style, with a stunning A Line silhouette, is perfect for every bride and every venue. Comprised of a luxurious satin and finished with an intricate floral appliqué, it compliments every occasion. A flattering fit, with a lace up back and ruching at the waist, Aston cleverly nips in and creates the perfect hourglass figure. The gentle sweetheart neckline adorned with floral detail softens the look and matches the finish to the train.

MEASUREMENTS (APPROX.):
Bust: 34” (at tightest)
Armpit to hem: 54”

Note: is corset style at the back so there is some leeway with the bust and waist

Included are detachable delicate spaghetti shoulder straps and various sized popper-fastened inserts to go behind the lacing up bit at the back. One has already been delicately tacked in but can easily be removed without causing damage.

I bought this dress for my wedding and ended up getting pregnant between buying the dress and getting married, so it was too tight to go over my 5+ months baby bump! We have some extra matching material we bought to create bigger inserts and longer lacing which I can include if you’d like.

Selling second-hand wedding dresses

Ok so I’ve been thinking about selling my wedding dresses (yes, dresses – long story) for a while now but have put it off as I thought it would be a massive task. Today I finally bit the bullet and got everything together. I have found loads of sites that you can sell second-hand wedding dresses on, but it took a LOT of searching. So, I thought I’d make a list where they are all in one place 🙂 These are in no particular order and you have to create accounts with them (obvs).
