At the end of last year we launched our limited edition range of vintage style wedding dresses.
These 8 vintage inspired gowns have been lovingly designed by Caroline and I.
Taking inspiration from some of the most beautiful vintage gowns we've encountered over the years of our vintage obsession we worked to create gowns our customers would adore.
Our capsule collection is called Papermoon by Dirty Fabulous.

The Sweetie Darling
For all the sultry sirens channelling their inner startlet. This 1930's style gown is begging to be sashayed in. The rose gold beaded collar adds a luxe touch to a dress that is all about hugging the curves.
The Cherry Pie
A cupcake of a cutie! Taking it's inspiration from one of the very first 1950's prom dresses we had in store, which became one of their most asked after dresses. The blush colour and soft tulle pleating bring the bridal style stakes to a whole new level!
