seeyoujimmy Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I've decided that with only 6 months to go i should get myself my dress and shoes. I'm a big girl and wondered where in Rotherham/Sheffield i'll be able to get a (resonable priced) dress, any suggestions appreciated! And..... i've got size 10/11 feet, where on earth am i going to find a nice pair of Ivory/White (depending on the dress) shoes! I know Evans stock big sized shoes but i haven't seen anything appropriate lately and i can just squeeze into Barratts tall and small range occasionally, please help!

kate55 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Have you thought about having your dress made? Especially Yours made mine from scratch. Her username on here is maggyirene and her number is in the yellow pages. She did a fantasic job and she was very reasonably priced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holidayhutch Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 If you are willing to come to Barnsley, I can recommend a fantastic shop called Cassamiento Bridals. I got married as a plus sized bride last October and I couldn't fault them one inch. I also have large wide feet, plus sized 9 EEE fitting and landed up going to a shop in Liverpool, they have an online store though too, I'll see if I can find you a link.

seeyoujimmy Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 After having a long think i've decided that this http://www.houseofbrides.com/product.php?productid=2839&cat=590&page=1 is the style i want to go for however, i'm not overly keen on buying my dress on the internet and i just want it plain ivory, so i'm going to contact a couple of dressmakers and see what they can do!

Also thank you for the offer of the dress but i've got really pale skin and i'm going for ivory so i don't dissappear in a white dress! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frolikalki Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 Take a look at La Bella Brides, Thorncliffe Estate, Chapeltown. They stock all sizes from 8 to 28 - and not just odd ones. They do quite a large range. Kath - the lady who runs La Bella - is a larger lady herself, so knows the problems we big girls face, and puts you at ease. No obligation browsing and trying on, give her a call 0114 284 5350 to book a slot, or just to nosy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
