Three Very Special Auctions: Miss Mouse Martini Print Dress, Cathy McGowan's Boutique Dress and a 1940s Wedding Gown

Yes, we're being ruthless and have decided to part with three of our favourite items from our personal collection - the following items are up for grabs on eBay now!

First up is this very beautiful vintage 1940s ivory satin wedding dress, which was worn on the same day as Queen Elizabeth II's marriage to Prince Philip (20th November 1947).

We are lucky enough to have seen a photo of the original owner wearing the dress too which makes it extra special.

It is in luxurious ivory liquid satin fabric, with elegant structured padded shoulders typical of the forties and a beautiful curved panel with gathered seams to the sides and base.

It comes with its original wire framed headress of cream mesh and little waxed buds. The auction is due to end on Wednesday 18th February 2015 at 17.58pm, so if you are looking for a wedding gown from a bygone era of romance and glamour, take a look!

Next up is this rare and truly fabulous vintage 1970s printed cotton dress by sought-after label Miss Mouse.

Featuring an oh-so-fantastic Martini label print, the dress dates from the earliest Miss Mouse collections by Rae Spencer Cullen, with the label reading 'from Rae with love & kisses x x x Miss Mouse'..

This Martini recipe adds a dash of 1950s style and a healthy dose of pop-art kitsch!

The auction ends at 19.17pm on Wednesday 18th February 2015.

The auction ends on Thursday 19th February 2015 at 18.15pm.
