RESELFRIDGES: THE WEDDING

SAY YES TO THE ONE-OF-A-KIND, EXPERTLY SOURCED DRESS

Discover our carefully curated line-up of iconic vintage wedding and party dresses.

Following a year of uncertainty, date changes and venue cancellations, we’re so looking forward to a good wedding – and an opportunity to play dress-up, of course. For the brides-to-be searching for something super special, Mon Vintage by Marie Blanchet’s hand-picked selection of almost impossible-to-find designer pieces all have a great story up their (laced, embellished or embroidered) sleeves: case in point, its vintage Vivienne Westwood corset-and-skirt ensemble (pictured) – a piece of fashion history, perfect for a truly unforgettable wedding. You can even call on founder Marie Blanchet and her team to source your wedding dress from a past collection using our new Mon Vintage service (more on that below). With luxury vintage reseller Re-SEE, you’re all set for amazing eveningwear, too – its rails are packed with the rarest items from Céline by Phoebe Philo, Dior by John Galliano and Chanel. “Our RESELFRIDGES pieces are unique, one-of-a-kind finds from some of fashion’s most poignant moments,” says Re-SEE co-founder Sofia Bernadin. “A personal favourite is our Tom Ford autumn/winter 1996 red velvet suit, previously worn by Gwyneth Paltrow.”

TAILORED TO YOU

From upcycled suiting to characterful vintage tailoring – our vintage experts have it all.

Great style is timeless – and there’s no better proof of that than a fine vintage suit. Classic-cut or all-out eccentric, slick black or ice white, light linen or soft silk; our RESELFRIDGES: The Wedding collection has all the expressive tailoring options to suit you. “I source from anywhere and everywhere,” says Ruth Vout, founder of Vout Vintage (which is making its first foray into pre-loved men’s suiting and shirting, especially for us). “From Parisian flea markets to home sales and vintage dealers – I love the story and history.” For something truly unique, the reconstructed suits from bespoke menswear label Clothsurgeon (which specialises in sharp tailoring crafted from vintage or deadstock materials) are certainly worth trying on for size.

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD ON TO

Complete the look with our edit of vintage wedding bands and accessories for the aisle.

Finding those rare, talking-point wedding accessories – whether that’s a delicate hairpin or ornate drop earrings – can be tricky. Luckily, our vintage jewellery experts have carried out the ardent search for us, curating a treasure-trove collection of one-of-a-kind jewellery spanning decades. “From designer to unnamed treasures, we’ve hand-picked every single piece for this collection,” vintage jewellery collector Jennifer Gibson told us. Her hero bridal piece? “A pearl and golden thread tiara. We are especially drawn to this one because of its fairy-tale vibes and beautiful creamy pearl colour. Just magical!” Vintage jewellery label Pawnshop is also on hand with statement heirloom jewellery to complete the wedding look with a collection of signet rings from the 70s and 80s, sourced from jewellery dealers and pawnbrokers. “Vintage jewellery is made to last lifetimes,” says founder Jayran Zahedi. “It carries a thousand stories and the most sentimental value.”

Beautiful 1950s handbags from D.G Jennings, statement luxury jewellery from Susan Caplan and our very own RESELFRIDGES collection of vintage cross-body bags and clutches seal the deal: we’re opting for wedding accessories that evoke memories and meaning.
