@j.grossman13: Love the coat! Classic well-cut coats never seem to go out of date.

It’s Friday in this part of the world, so I’ll add a few.
thefrock.com has an amazing selection of vintage designer (expensive!) dresses, including a whole section for wedding dresses:
http://thefrock.com/bridal_page1_main.html
They’re a little on the expensive side but could be perfect if you’re after something unique and incredible (or just want to look at pretty things!) I’ve added some of my favourites below. Conveniently, the pictures have all the information attached (including the gigantic price tags).
Ostrich feathers!

The fur is detachable (but I suppose someone might want to leave it on for a winter wedding…?)

i have never seen a one shoulder dress from the 60’s, this one is probably closer to 70’s when that became more popular. the lace applique is so sweet and pretty, this would be perfect for a garden wedding. imho i would remove the collar, but use all that fantastic applique elsewhere, you could even make a hairpiece out of it since a veil may not be the way to go with this dress. loves it!!

ok wow, and wow! calling all modesty and/or winter brides!!!! this is so freakin beautiful! i love classic, strong tailoring with a feminine shape, it’s right up my alley, but then to add the pearls, and that beautiful full skirt…it’s wonderful and well worth the price with all that silk. someone please buy this!

wow, these are gorgeous! I bought a vintage wedding dress and have no idea how to style it. Would anyone be interested in helping me if I can figure out how to post a pic? And should I start a new thread?
