The search for the perfect wedding dress can take months (years, in some cases, or so we’ve heard…), and finding a good deal can be next to impossible. For some, you’ll be so relieved when you finally find The Dress you’ll plunk down whatever it costs. But if you’re searching for a great gown and a great deal and you’re the sort of person capable of making quick decisions: good news! You can find sample sale vintage inspired bridal gowns and discount designer wedding dresses at truly amazing prices all over the web.
While some designer discount sites require all items to be sold as-is or final sale, there are plenty that have the same return protections and policies as other sites. The main difference? They often only have a few of each gown in stock, or one or two sizes, so you need to make a snap decision if you’re interested, or another bride might beat you to it!
Today we’re going to feature a few of our current favorite heavily discounted designer wedding dresses, and sample sale vintage inspired bridal gowns: every single one is marked down at least 50% from its original retail price, and a few as much as 80%. Think fast, ladies! And good luck.
First up, this gorgeous 1920s beaded flapper dress was originally $348 now marked down to $83 (!!). Available in only a few sizes now, including a plus size option. Perfect for a reception dress too. If you want it, you better hustle!
Mega bridal retailer David’s Bridal has a giant section on their website devoted entirely to sample sale wedding dresses, and there are a lot of stellar finds in there, including these beauties:
Another lovely flapper / reception dress find from Unique Vintage, this 1920s Ivory Flapper Dress was originally $350, now marked down 50% (this one has a few more sizes left, and is also available in plus sizing):
We’d be remiss if we didn’t remind you to be sure to check out the rotating selection of stunning vintage inspired wedding dresses in our very own Art Deco Shop (some bargains to be had!). And then finally we’ve got this collection of heavily discounted designer wedding gowns from Sue Wong, BHLDN and more. Happy shopping, and think fast!
Look at these gorgeous sketches (art in their own right) from the 1920s! Housed in the Department of Special Collections at FIT, these are scans of original 20s wedding gown sketches, housed in the the FIT archives ‘Lucile, Lady Duff Gordon’ collection. See more sketches and read about Lucile Duff Gordon at Pins and Needles …
Usually I will pull and highlight one or two gowns from a designer’s collection, gowns that capture perfect art deco style, that evoke the 1920s without seeming costume-y… but Jenny Packham‘s 2012 Bridal Collection is so on-point, so gorgeous from start to finish, I’ve got to show you half of the dresses, because they are …
We came across the dresses of designer Amanda Wakeley recently, and were completely bowled over. Speechless! Stunned! Not only are we obsessed with almost every gown in her collection, her lookbook / photo shoots are absolutely, 100%, insanely gorgeous. Photography-wise these are some of our favorite pieces ever, and the fact that the dresses themselves …
Today we’re excited to feature some of the breathtaking designs from the Zuhair Murad Bridal 2019 collection. These spectacular art deco wedding gowns were inspired by the art and architecture of the Art Deco movement, so it comes as no surprise that they’ve turned out to be some of our favorite designs of the last few …
