Wedding Dresses and COVID-19

Choosing your wedding dress is pretty much a full contact sport and involves quite a large team it turns out.
Until such time as Social Distancing measures are considerably relaxed or lifted then face to face appointments in the Atelier are simply not possible.
We are still available for telephone and email consultations, and are working on a Pret a Porter collection that will will not require fittings (which should be available by early Autumn 2020 at the latest).
Please do get in touch, we’d love to help you with your plans for a vintage wedding dress, but sadly appointments are suspended until Government restrictions are lifted.

Our Christmas Window

If you’ve got this far you will have noticed by now that we have been rather busy recently on our new website, which explains the radio silence of late. We think it was worth waiting for.

However, normal AVB business has continued too and with it being December we have out up the first of our Christmas windows (the judging by Oakham in Bloom is this weekend so fingers crossed!). Our self-imposed theme this year is Fairy Stories and we’ve started with Snow White. The Evil Queen’s dress is up there with our all-time favourites, and though we can understand why it is still in the collection as it would take hutzpah to wear it, we would love to see it go down the aisle: you don’t see many 1930s Silver Lamé dresses, let alone with sleeves as glorious as this!
