I've just been to the Octavia charity shop on Brompton Road, Knightsbridge, London near Harrods and seen a brand new wedding dress for £150.

I've taken some pics, not the best, but I'll try to upload them here.

Just in case this helps anyone!

    Thanks Compbunny, not for me either but hopefully it might help someone.

    The charity shop was full of designer clothes and shoes, like used Jimmy Choos for £40, still too expensive for me!

    I just bought a couple of birthday cards but the brand new and unworn wedding dress seemed to be a bargain!

    Knightsbridge is on the Piccadilly line of London Underground if this helps!

    On a similar note, Monsoon have quite a decent selection of wedding dresses in the sale....and a whole load of other ones in the new collection too. Some are quite a bargain!

    The "best" charity shops are those in very posh areas like Knightsbridge and Hampstead, lots of designer clothes and shoes (if you're into that sort of thing - I don't have a single designer item in my possession!), the items aren't cheap but compared to the original cost they are a drop in the ocean!

    Plus it's helping a charideee....
