Southampton Oxfam Bridal Shop

Ok with only 2 days before I fly back up North to order my Wedding dress my Mum decides to tell me the in Sounthampton (we're nr Winchester) Oxfam have a Bridal Shop. Its where most there donated dresses go AND where designers donate dresses they no longer need. :T

All sounds great but I have no time between now and Friday Morning when I fly to go have a look.:(

Has anyone been in there?

I just phoned to see if they could have a look and see if they have the dress I was after but the women was very unhelpful.:( They only have a dozen size 8's :j and I didn't think it was too much to ask her to check them for me ? I wasn't after her to check it right then and there but if she could look over the next day for me.

  • I haven't been to the shop, but it really depends on how fussy you are as to whether or not they would have anything you'd like. It'd be a minor miracnle if they have to one you want in your size! Why are you coming up north to order it? There's a charity bridal shop in Manchester if that helps...

    Yeah know it was a long shot.

    Will stick with the original plan and order it new. It took me soo long and many tears till I finally found the '1' and my stepdad said he would buy it for me.

    We're trying not to go too overboard with our Wedding but don't really want to scrimp on my dress. Not very MSE I know :o
