Bridal Style: 50s Style Wedding Dresses

On this Fridays Bridal style we are talking tea length 50s style dresses. This style has been around for a while now as brides opt for the non princess style of wedding dress. Brides who want to add a touch fo 50s vintage to their day, or brides with a chic sence of style, maybe you have great legs that you want to show off, or maybe you want something a bit more manageable for your big day. A tea length dress automatically adds a sence of sophistication and fun to your wedding and these days there is so much choice

    I love your 1950s style dresses! Do you make them in different colours? i.e. navy blue?
