pronovias abril wedding dress collection

2. Pronovias 'Abril' from McElhinneys Bridal Rooms
Was €1699, Designer Sample Sale Price €500

Pronovias is one of the biggest international names in bridal, and 'Grecian' is one of the biggest trends in wedding dresses this year. These are two of the three main reasons we've chosen 'Abril' as one of our top designer wedding dress bargains to be had at the Designer Sample Sale on Sunday - the third being the incredible price (so good that some of the girls in the office are giving it some serious thoughts 'just in case'!) With its sexy one shoulder style (trend alert!), delectable draping and oh-so-graceful dropped waist, this sumptuous sheath gown is everything a chic, stylish bride could want in a wedding dress - and at over 70% off the RRP, we're guessing it won't be on the rails for long!

'Natasha' is a hit for many reasons - its timeless fitted A-line shape will flatter every figure, while exquisite lace provides the 'wow' factor with a scallop edged neckline and bottom hemline. A jewel encrusted band finishes off the gown to perfection - an incredible dress at an even more incredible price.

It's the ultimate in bridal - luxurious lace, sexy v-neck line, brooch detail and sweet puddle train, and what's more it features one of our favourite trends for wedding dresses this year - the statement keyhole back. This gown is as elegant as it is sexy, and a brilliant bargain for a lucky bride-to-be.
