The sleeves drape lovely and don't restrict your movement too much. Just a heads-up, be careful with your jewellery because my bracelet snagged on the lace once, but that was my own fault. It’s a really flattering cut that hides what you want to hide and shows off the good bits.

We had a small registry office wedding followed by dinner at a nice restaurant, and this dress fit the vibe perfectly. It wasn't too over-the-top for the city streets, but it still felt bridal. I paired it with a denim jacket for some cool urban photos, and the contrast with the lace was spot on. The bodice has decent structure, so I didn't feel like I was constantly pulling it up. It’s a bit long if you aren't wearing heels, so keep that in mind, but the overall quality is surprisingly good for an online find.

I bought this for a vow renewal ceremony we threw in the backyard for our 10th anniversary. I wasn't keen on spending thousands like I did on my first dress, and honestly, I reckon I liked this one better. The A-line silhouette is just a classic and is super flattering for curvy figures. I felt supported but not squished at all. We had a casual barbie afterwards, and I didn't even bother getting changed. My hubby couldn't stop staring at me. It’s just a gorgeous, romantic dress that does exactly what it needs to without a fuss.

I’m a photographer, and I actually bought this dress for a styled shoot I was organising in an old historic library. The model I hired was plus-size, and she said she felt incredibly comfy in it. The way the tulle catches the light is absolutely stunning, and the lace bodice photographs beautifully. It has a real vintage vibe to it that worked perfectly for the theme. It’s tough too—we were moving around dusty bookshelves and it washed up a treat. Definitely a brilliant piece to keep in a client wardrobe or for a real bride on a budget.

I decided to elope up in the mountains, and I needed something that travelled well but still felt like a proper bridal gown. This dress was absolutely perfect. I packed it in a garment bag, and after a quick steam at the hotel, it was good to go. The court train is exactly the right length—dramatic enough for photos on the rocks but not so long that I was tripping over it. The lace on the bodice is super soft and not scratchy at all. I felt so confident and beautiful, which is exactly how you want to feel on your big day.
