Testimonials

“Charlie Brear is THE go-to girl for super stylish brides. She has exquisite taste, a fashion stylist's unique eye, and the best selection of vintage bridal wear anywhere in the world. And she's a girls' girl. My best friend recently got married in Tuscany in one of Charlie's vintage dresses. It was a 1940s lace gown that fitted like a glove and was, without a doubt, the most beautiful wedding dress I've ever seen. The woman is a genius, and her website is a dream come true.”

“This is my friend Charlie Brear's website. It's a fabulous place to pick up one of her original vintage dresses that she sources from all over the world. It will make you feel like Cinderella, but you won't have to give it back the next day!”

“The Vintage Wedding Dress Company is the most amazing place. I can't think of a better one for any cool bride to go. It's where I would take any friend of mine, celebrity or otherwise. There's a fantastic selection from all eras to choose from.”

“VWDC ROCKS!! It's a one stop shop for the hippest vintage gowns around, and with owner/stylist, Charlie Brear at the helm and her team to advise on your look, you're getting the same service movie stars and models would, at no extra cost. Treat yourself!”

Danielle Proud, Sunday Times Style

“I love the whole idea of The Vintage Wedding Dress Company, the fact that each dress is unique stands out, and the vintage element means the handwork and embellishment will be all the more delicate and ornate. The whole concept has a fairy tale quality, being able to walk into a room of such unique pieces and play dress ups...to find your own perfect fit. I recommend it to any bride to be.”

Alice McCall

“Charlie's taste is immaculate, as is her vision of the modern bride. She stocks the most beautiful and unique vintage dresses in a chic but welcoming showroom in central London. The whole experience is a real treat and would appeal to even the most wedding phobic bride.”
