Your dress is special.
And it’s hard selling something that means so much to you.
When you sell your dress through Love Anew, we will do our very best to find someone who will appreciate and love it as much as you do, while making sure you get the best return.
And did I mention it’s free to list?
But there is a catch. We don’t take every dress that’s offered.
In fact, we only take a select few. Because so much time and care goes into promoting each and every wedding dress we agree to list, we only take the ones that we know will sell and will stand out among the rest.
However, if we can’t accept your dress we’ll gladly recommend the best places where you can sell it – and STILL get the best return!
Take some good quality photos. Scatch that, spectacular photos! We want to market your dress the best way we can so send us the best of the best. If you have professional photos from your wedding that’s perfect!
Once we’ve received your request, we’ll get in touch with you to discuss your sales goals for the dress and any concerns or other questions you have. From here we will manage all enquiries about your dress.
Once we have a buyer, we will contact you to send your dress to our headquarters for verification and sending to the buyer.
If the buyer returns the dress with 7 days, we will then keep it onsite where we will can promote it more actively. It will be automatically promoted to a Premium listing free of charge.
We sell your dress on a consignment basis. When your dress sells, you will receive 90% of the full price listing cost. You won’t find a better return anywhere else (including ebay!) And if you choose our premium listing, you'll get your listing cost fully refunded if your dress is sold but is returned. We're able to keep our charges low buy also charging an administration fee for buyers
Not only do you give a new bride their perfect dress, but a portion of each sale goes to Birthing Kits Foundation Australia who provide birthing kits to women in need in developing nations.
We offer both Free or Premium Listings.
If your dress is on our Dress Request page you may also be eligible for a free premium listing.
I purchased my dress from Louise at Love Anew and it was just perfect, dry cleaned, beautifully packaged, the dress immaculate I couldn’t ask for a better service.

You will need some good quality photos. Scatch that, spectacular photos!
We want to market your dress the best way we can so send us the best of the best, as guide, some professional photos from your wedding, not just close ups but images that show case your dress in the best possible light.
Make sure you have a couple close ups and some images of the back also.
We happily accept video links. No emojis or stickers over the images please.
Once we have an interested buyer we will let you know. When we receive payment, you will send your dress to Love Anew. We’ll work with the buyer and arrange all insurance, shipping and returns. If the dress is returned, we will ensure that it comes back in the same condition and your listing will automatically be upgraded to a free premium listing. If the dress continues not to sell, we will contact you about price adjustments and returning it back to you.
If the sale proceeds, we will send you payment for 90% of the final sale price.
Stunning ones! At a minimum get portrait photos of the full length front and back photo, a close up of the detailing and neck line, as well as any other special features.
If you have any amazing wedding photos where the background scenary and the dress look stunning, definitely send those in. Since photos are your biggest asset here, don’t corrupt them by scratching over the face or using stickers as they won’t be accepted.
Instead of charging brides up front, we give you the option to list for free, that way you only pay if the dress sells. Our commission rates are some of the cheapest in Australia, with the charge covering all our time spent marketing the dress, dealing with enquiries, arranging personal fittings and all shipping and final sales.
All dresses listed under our premium package will have the listing cost refunded back to them if they do not sell.
If you find your dress on our Wanted page, you will automatically be upgraded to a free premium listing.
This is what sets Love Anew apart from the rest and why we have such a great sales rate. Our brides know that they can purchase a dress from us without risk. There’s nothing worse than spending $2,000 on a dress only to have it not fit. For this reason, all our dresses qualify for in-home fittings.
If specifically requested you can opt-out of this option and only select bridal studio fittings. However, please keep in mind we inspect the dress when we send it and when it comes back, if the dress comes back heavily damaged the buyer will forfeit their refund and you will still get payment.
If the dress is returned we usually keep it onsite to better market it.
If you have any questions about our service just give us a call or send a message.
