Hey all!! I''m so excited, I bought the dress yesterday! I tried it on weeks ago, and instantly knew it was the one. We went to a few more places, but nothing compared. I went back yesterday with mum and my MOH (who had a little tear in her eye

). I''m so thrilled with it, it''s perfect for me. With out further ado...

...I present La Sposa, Famosa, as worn by Porridge

Back detail. The buttons aren''t all done up, but you get the idea.

Thanks a million Deelight! Thank you akmiss, it only needs slight tweaking in the alterations - it is too long at the moment. Luckily the dressmaker said it would be easy as pie. I love it!

Beautiful dress - congrats on finding it!!

I vote for your hair similar to how it is in that picture - soft, lush, waves, very romantic, though I think it would also look beautiful swept up (again, soft and romantic because your dress is very romantic) with some tendrils coming down and beautiful dangly earrings

Omg! Gorgeous dress & you look spectacular. I love the lace detailing and the buttons. It''s a bit like old-fashion charm with a modern twist- the cut of the dress. So awesome! When is the wedding?
