Wedding dress “Aphrodite”

A crocheted wedding dress is an absolute trend this summer. Unlike a store-bought wedding dress or even a custom-made one, a knitted wedding dress has one advantage - no matter what year it is on the calendar, it will always be relevant.

 Even 20 years later, your daughter will shine in this dress no less than you. Having been “aged” and thus acquiring a vintage shade, a knitted wedding dress will be even more valuable and meaningful.
