You can get wedding dresses anywhere in Turkey. Each city has a bazaar and shops next to each other with hundreds of dresses available for future brides. But in Turkey, it’s recommended to buy your dress in larger cities, as the quality of material they have is much better due to the their easy access to the fabric market. Smaller shops in small cities don’t have the opportunity to get high quality fabric as in big cities and tend to buy cheaper Chinese fabrics.
Here are 3 larger cities where you can shop for wedding dresses in Turkey:
In Antalya: Antalya also has a large number of shops in the Gençlik neighborhood. The shops provide very classy options and are accustomed to foreign brides. The prices are more affordable in Antalya than in the 2 other cities, but you will need to visit serval shops because they are smaller and each has a different style.Introducing Block Patterns
In Istanbul: Istanbul is a temple for shops selling wedding dresses. The main places to shop are Nişantaşı and the streets of Fevzipaşa in the Fatih district. Nişantaşı has many very high end shops and the shop owners are accustomed to foreign brides, specially arabic ones. This is why you will see the models in the displays are very imposing, sometime even “too much”.
In Izmir: Izmir is the main place where wedding dress makers are based in Turkey. There are hundreds of shops who have many years of experience in the field and who are used to working with local as well as foreign customers. You can find all the shops concentrated in the Çankaya neighborhood. The market is quite competitive, so shop owners are very well trained to attract and please customers. You might want to visit several shops before deciding on the best dress shop to pick.
