DAYS OF GRACE VINTAGE - DREAMY ORIGINAL VINTAGE GOWNS

Visitors to Days of Grace are always amazed at their vast choice of dresses.

Linda Duriez has been a collector for many years since she first moved to Devon at the end of the 1970s where, with a passion for lace, she began to amass her collection.



The range spans from 1900 to the end of the 1950s in the main but there's often a coming out dress from 1960 or a boho 70s that she finds hard to resist.  



Linda has so many fine early examples of wearable Edwardian lace gowns and embroidered veils from that era you won't be able to resist.



Because of her amazing collection (and lovely personality!) Linda's always popular with bloggers and magazine editors and Days of Grace have been popping up on all the wedding blogs and are regularly featured in magazines.

This past year has seen more individual Days of Grace designs using antique lace, making each dress unique.  



Having such a large collection of lace means that original dresses that are too small can be adapted at the clever hands of their talented seamstresses making a vintage wedding dress more accessible to girls who are not size 8!  

     

                                       
Check out their Facebook page and scroll through their photos including 1920s beaded gowns, some newly created by Linda's film contacts.  


In addition to the dress they have all manner of beautiful accessories and vintage paraphernalia and are especially proud to be Gemma Sangwine stockists of one-off headdresses.

DAYS OF GRACE VINTAGE - UNIQUE HEIRLOOM GOWNS

We're thrilled to have Days of Grace Vintage joining us again this year with their signature lace gowns - both original and reworked, harking back to early Downton Abbey through to the elegant 1930's. 


Linda, the designer and owner of Days of Grace will be showcasing their growing collection of 1920's beaded gowns (think Great Gatsby), which suit any age group, together with whimsical boho vintage gowns - even a couple from the 1970's, though their main era spans 1900 to the 1950's.

The lovely thing is, each one is entirely unique and an heirloom to treasure.  There will be soft champagne hued veils, exquisite jewelled headdresses and unusual beautiful accessories.


Choose from their own label creations in antique lace, original vintage gowns and designer samples, including Jenny Packham, Sarah Houston and other vintage-inspired collections.



Days of Grace have something for every vintage bride and you will adore searching their collection for that perfect gown!
