Vintage wedding dresses

Vintage wedding dresses with a modern point of view

A vintage look can begin with one detail: lace at the neckline, the shape of a sleeve or the way the waist is defined. Here, vintage describes the style. DAMA Couture dresses are new designs, rather than original period pieces or second-hand gowns. You can enjoy the feel of earlier fashion and wear it entirely your way.

Lace and details that draw you in

Perhaps a lace pattern reminds you of a favourite photograph. Or perhaps you simply like the way it looks against your skin. Notice where the pattern sits and how it works with the rest of the dress. Try your favourite designs on to see the neckline, sleeves and waist together.

Making a vintage look your own

A dress does not have to dictate every other choice. Wear the shoes you love and try your own jewellery with it. If you are drawn to flowing lines and a relaxed mood, explore our boho wedding dresses too. The two styles can overlap, and your favourites may fall into both collections.

A vintage-style dress for a civil ceremony

A short dress can bring attention to your shoes, while a full-length gown gives you a different silhouette. Either can work for a civil ceremony. Consider what you want to wear throughout the day, and try walking and sitting in the dress. Browse all our wedding dresses for more ideas.

Try on your DAMA favourites

Use our store finder to find a DAMA partner boutique, then ask about the dresses you like. The team can tell you which styles and sample sizes are available to try on and help you choose a size to order. Your gown is then made for you in that size, with final alterations to refine the length and fit.
