    I am getting married in three months and I don't have my dress yet. I am asking here because I really don't want a wedding dress. I doubt I will even wear white.


    So any recommendations for dressy enough for a wedding but not wedding dress shops in Dublin. (or Kildare, even Belfast at a push). I had seen recommendations for Dirty fabulous but they are closed at the moment and I am trying to panic.


    Style would not be full length or too fluffy, I am only five foot two so can't carry off too much dramatic lengths. It's not in a church and a very small wedding so I can really wear what I want.

    What do you like? Do you like patterns? Do you like quirky stuff, structured dresses, boho style and so on..

    Like you I didn't want traditional dress, mine was ordered from Outline. Finery, kitri, Ganni are brands I would check.

    What kind of money do you want to spend and roughly what size are you?

    Size is 8 to ten on bottom. 12 on top. I'm short and would spend up to 1000. Style would be cocktail or midi length as it's hard to find anything long to suit me.

    Have a look at Alice + Olivia and Marchesa Notte, both on Net A Porter, might be available in BT, not sure.

    Vivienne Westwood is another good one, if that's your style.

    BT have personal shopping, if they had any brands you think you'd like could be worth a shot.
