Our beautiful customer Ella wore the ‘Tea Party Mini Dress‘ by Thurley to her friend’s wedding in West Perth, and we think she looked stunning! Read more about her experience below.
Tell us about the wedding and why you chose to wear a designer dress for it?
When I got the invite for the wedding of two of our closest friends, I knew I wanted to wear something special! Held in a restored warehouse in West Perth, the wedding was edgy, a little bit rustic and very, very cool. The bride previously had her own wedding styling business so all the small details – neon signs, floral silk napkins, mat black cutlery, gelato cart, flowers galore – were all amazing! I knew it would be as incredible as it was so I needed an outfit to match.
What was it about this occasion that made renting a dress so appealing for you?
I’m one of those people who hates repeating an outfit! Knowing that all my close friends, and lots of friends I hadn’t seen in a while would be at this wedding, I definitely couldn’t wear something I have worn before. I did spend some time shopping around but I didn’t have any luck finding something to suit this event.
What made you choose this dress and Designer? Have you ever purchased from this designer before?
I’ve always admired Thurley. I am quite adventurous with what I wear and love styles with a bit of something extra – tassels, fringing, pom poms, lace, polka dots – while still being glamorous and polished! I had tried on a number of Thurley dresses recently but not had anywhere to wear them to.
Was this your first time renting a dress? If so, what made you consider it?
Yes, this was my first time hiring a dress! My sister does it all the time but I have always been nervous about renting something and then it not fitting, or finding something I wanted to wear but not being able to hire it in the right size. My sister is a lot smaller than me so it’s easy for her to fit into anything! I am tall and curvy so I’ve always been hesitant to rent a dress out of fear I’d be left without something to wear at the last minute. I decided to bite the bullet when a friend at work hired a dress for a different wedding on the same weekend. When she told me about the option to hire a back-up dress I was sold!

How did you come across GlamCorner?
I first came across GlamCorner after seeing some girls I follow on Instagram wearing beautiful dresses they had rented. When my friend at work was looking at renting a dress through GlamCorner, I decided to look into it as well. I spent quite a bit of time browsing the range trying to decide which one I wanted to wear – there’s so much to choose from!
Did you enjoy your overall experience from beginning to end with GlamCorner? Would you recommend us to other women?
I couldn’t be happier with my GlamCorner experience! As I am tall and curvy I can vary between size 10, 12 and sometimes even 14. I’ve often considered hiring a dress but felt I could never find something that wasn’t a size 6! GlamCorner has so many gorgeous dresses in all sizes, the hardest part of the whole process was picking one! Given it was my first time hiring a dress, and I was concerned about sizing, I went with the back-up dress option which gave me some piece of mind and also meant I could pick two amazing dresses! I have already told so many of my friends how awesome the whole experience was. I can’t wait for my next event, I already have my eye on a few pieces!
Thank you for sharing your experience with us Ella – we are so happy you couldn’t be happier with your experience! We can’t wait to see what you decide to rent next ????
