My dress color!!

Tonya, on February 2, 2022 at 8:54 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 5
I am going with a red wedding dress. I have seen so many online but would love to find a actual shop that has them, I am in the D.C area and don’t mind traveling. We are getting married in Brooklyn!
Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look? I’m just nervous to but one online! Thank you a ton

    My favourite coloured dress designer is Teuta Matoshi, but they don't appear to have any actual boutiques open in the US at the moment Smiley sad

    I normally also suggest Needle and Thread, who I think sell through Nordstrom, but I wasn't overly impressed with any of their red dresses when I looked just now.

    If I were you, I would go to some high-end department stores and look in the evening gown section! I hope you find something and then share it with us!

    Hi Tonya! David's Bridal actually has a really great selection of red wedding dresses!!

    This round-up from The Knot also features red wedding dresses from several different designers - I'd check out those designers:

    I worked in bridal for three and a half years, and over that time, we sold a couple red gowns! Typically they were formal gowns from higher end pagent or prom collections- one that sticks in my mind is this dress I sold to a bride for a winter wedding from Rachel Allan:

    In terms of designers to check out, I'd recommend Sherri Hill, Rachel Allan, and Ellie Wilde. Sherri Hill in particular has some gorgeous couture gowns in red- I don't know what your budget is like, but thought I'd throw in a few pictures.

    Sherri Hill 44709:

    This Ellie Wilde gown (EW122094) even has an amazing lace train which can sometimes be tricky to find for colored gowns!

    Something else I thought I'd mention- a lot of bridal salons also carry prom or pagent brands like these, so if having the traditional try-on-dresses-at-a-shop experience is something you're wanting, these could be a good bet! That's what we usually did at the store where I worked.

    One last dress- a very dramatic Rachel Allan. It reminds me of a rose petals with the skirt!

    Red dresses are so fun! I always enjoy seeing the non-white dresses people choose, and they were always some of the most fun bridal appointments I had.
