    My wedding on the beach is coming up fast, four weeks to be exact. I am looking for a wedding dress made from natural/sustainable materials, would love a hemp or soy blend, organic cotton, etc. I am just looking for a simple halter style, just above or below the knee, more like a summer dress than anything else. It doesn't need to be white, just a lighter colour, natural/cream etc. I live near Vancouver and haven't found what I am looking for in the stores, and I've looked around the net but i would love reccomendations on stores/online stores where I might be able to find a dress, or someone who can make one in the next few weeks!
    Thank you!!!!

    Here is a possible source: http://www.hippieshop.com

    I have ordered from them before and they are wonderful. Most of their stuff is cotton though. But you could get one of thier skirts and wear a tank top with it if it's not too cold. That would look really cute. They have a really pretty skirt with embroidery along the bottom. :)

    http://www.rawganique.com/Womenswear.htm they have some cute hemp dresses. I have never ordered from them so no thoughts.

    I love this store. I have several items from them. They have halter dresses also. :)

    Do a search for Hemp clothing, or whatever it is that you are looking for on google or better yet on Froogle. :)
