I Transformed A £150 Charity Shop Dress To My £1500 Wedding Dress

When I got engaged last year, my fiance and I never had a lot of money for an expensive wedding let alone dress. I have always envisaged myself getting wed in a princess ballgown, so I decided to make one myself with the help of my aunt,the seemstress

    The layers of the old dress were used to make the under skirt

    thousands of beads and swarovski crystals were taken off the bodice of the old dress and hand sewn on the new dress

    The bones of the old bodice were used to construct the new bodice.
