Description
Have you ever wondered what to do with your old wedding dress?
What do we do with the most expensive dress we have ever purchased once it has been worn? If your old wedding dress is still tucked away in the loft, this transformational book has the answers.
Bespoke bridal gown designer Caroline Arthur will help you rediscover its value with this uplifting boutique coffee table book. You’ll find aspirational ideas for repurposing your dress, with breathtaking illustrations and photography that show practical inspiration for dyeing, painting, restyling or crafting, whether or not you can sew.
Relovable lifts the veil on how the bridal industry is evolving to find a more sustainable way of producing these priceless garments and celebrates an alternative to their reputation of only being worn once.
With contributions from designers, fashion colleges, industry experts and real brides, it will help you connect with your community, the maker of your dress, and your personal history.
This book is about taking the most expensive garment in your wardrobe, the one that holds so many memories, and giving it a chance to become part of your life again.
