The shop began specialising in bridalware in 2021 and has sold a variety of vintage dresses, some of which were 100 years old.
Shop manger Fernanda Da Costa said about 10 to 12 brides-to-be came in every week and she had seen “entire families crying with happiness” when they found the right dress.
“We have a selection of vintage dresses from different eras, starting from the 1920s,” she said.
“We also have some modern ones and the most expensive one is around £500.
“Why spend about £2,000 on a dress when you only wear it once?
“You can save money and still look amazing.”
Industry expert Maria Malone said the second-hand market for bridalwear had grown by nearly 10% in 2024.
“The attitude to vintage clothing has changed,” she said.
“It’s different and it’s often better quality.
“You can get some poor quality brand new wedding dresses.
“When you get a vintage wedding dress, you get far better quality for your money.”
