I had my first appointment (with my Sister) in Mirror Mirror Crouch End in early March and spotted my dress the minute I walked in the door.
I discounted all the puffy dresses so that left half the collection to choose from.....I knew the look I wanted so it was either a yes or no, which I guess made my life and the sales assistant's job a bit easier. If you don't have an idea of what you want I think it's very hard for someone else to tell you!
After trying on about 4 dresses which I really liked the look of, I saved the best one till last....I don't think the assistant had it zipped up when I knew this was the dress.
I found the service really friendly, buying a wedding dress is so scary (and I work in the fashion industry!) but I was put a ease here and was put under no pressure to buy or make a decision straight away. I went back 2 weeks later with my sister and Mum, tried the dress on again and paid the deposit.
I got a call sometime in April to say my dress had arrived and to make an appointment for my first fitting.
The first fitting was a pleasure, about 1cm had to be taken off the length, otherwise it was perfect. I'm going for my final fitting next week and collecting my dress for my wedding on the 31st Aug
All in all I found Mirror Mirror very friendly, efficient and am very, very happy with the service I received, I really could not fault it....I thought their range covered a range of styles to suit different tastes.
I'd happily recommend the Crouch End store to friends - but in general do your research on the look you want and it will make your life easier when your confronted with a boutique full of expensive white/ivory dresses
