Made in London

This is my second of two Lady Voluptuous Wedding dress reviews.You can see my first HERE. I took inspiration for this styling from the artist Frida Kahlo with the bold and beautiful flower crown from StarCrossedBoutique.

This is the style of dress I would choose if I was having a traditional white Wedding dress. I love a skater style and the lace sleeves a pretty addition. You could easily alter the length to suit your preference. They fit my large arms without issue. The satin has some stretch like most of the Lady Volup dresses. The skirt has an underskirt with lots of poof to give that great full look. The neckline is the perfect cut as to not show too much but not be too covered up either.

I am wearing the 26/28 and the fit is great. It is the size I would choose for any Lady Volup dress for a good fit. Sorry about the creases but it was just out of the box! This dress can be styled to go with any theme. I added a ribbon as belt and could have chosen any colour from the flower crown to finish this look. It falls below my knee and I am 5'3'' for reference.

I am so pleased that Lady Voluptuous have made an affordable but beautiful Bridal range that will make any Bride feel like a Queen.

Made in London

This is my first of two Lady Voluptuous Wedding dress reviews. First is this beautiful 1950's style Marilyn dress that makes me feel like the star! Excuse the creases (just out of the box) and the bra flashing bust as I would have easily pinned it but as this dress is only on loan I couldn't. As you can see it will fit even the largest of bust sizes!

This dress is a show stopper! Perfect for any retro Bride. I love the cuffs and button detail on the sleeves. The white satin has some stretch to it like most of the Lady Volup dresses which makes for a comfortable but structured look. The skirt has an underskirt with some poof for the full skirt look. There are a few pleats around the skirt which looks nice.

You could style this dress so many ways and it would look stunning with them all. I have gone with a mint theme and added a lovely feather headband from StarCrossedBoutique and ribbon as a belt also in mint.

I am wearing the size 26/28 which is my usual size in Lady Volup and it fits just the same as their other dresses. I am loving this Collection. It is timeless and there is something for all shapes and sizes. This style is available in sizes 16-36 and is dry clean only.
