Frankie Bridge turned heads at the UK premiere of The Devil Wears Prada 2 in a floor-length white maxi dress from Karen Millen. While not designed as a wedding gown, the high street piece has been praised for its striking resemblance to a designer bridal look, and it comes at a fraction of the usual cost.
The Soft Tailored One Shoulder Cape Sleeve Maxi Dress is normally priced at £259, but it is currently on sale with 30% off, bringing it down to £181.30. Shoppers can use the code KMEXTRA20 to receive an additional 20% off, reducing the price to just £145.04 – more than £100 off the original figure.
The dress is available in white and forest green, with the white version seen as an ideal choice for those planning a wedding on a budget. It features a floor-skimming maxi skirt with a side split, a tailored silhouette with subtle gathering at the waist, and a high neckline with a one-shoulder design. A cape sleeve detail drapes over one arm and extends to the floor, creating a flowing train-like effect.
Sizes 6 to 14 are still in stock, though some sizes are beginning to sell out, and the orange version has already disappeared from the website.
Other high street options for budget-conscious brides include the Square Neck Structured Full Skirt Midi Wedding Dress from ASOS at £185, the Bridal Ivory Satin Open Back Long Sleeve Isadora Maxi Dress from Nobody's Child now priced at £200 (reduced from £250), and the Honoured Premium Crepe Plunge Neck Fishtail Wedding Dress from Coast, which has been cut from £149 to £134.10.
