There are wedding dresses that make you feel like a princess and then there are dresses that magically turn you into a princess. If you prefer the latter (who doesn't?), then wedding gowns by Uptight Clothing, a UK-based dress and accessory designer that's been around for years, is perfect for making your faerie-tale dreams come true.
The focus with Uptight Clothing is rich, saturated colors like royal purples and turquoise and form-fitting corsets with either billowing gowns or curve-hugging A-line skirts. As you can see from the gallery, the styles range from whimsical to more traditional with a twist. So, if you're the kind of bride who turns a nose up to white or sneers at big designer labels, this boutique-style dressmaker may be the faerie godmother you've been searching high and low outside your window.
Keep in mind, due to the high demand for these handmade dresses, you'll need to order at least a year in advance. Oh, but the wait is sure to be worth it once you transform into a princess who'll make your prince's jaw drop!
