so I popped in to see them.
Sadly the most amazing one that took my breath away, a 1933 one ......... for some wierd reason hasnt come out on my camera....
am so disapointed.

Anyway here's a little feast.......
above, this was a 1945 wedding dress..
love seeing the different wedding gown styles. my mom had a beautiful wedding gown. am sorry that it wasn't saved.
ReplyDeleteHiya, these are really interesting, so odd cause there is a small disolay in a local charity shop where there is a fabulous full lace flapper type dress that took our breath away, oh I wish that it would fit me then I could dye it for Torias wedding. Great post lyn x
ReplyDeleteHow fun to see these! I didn't have a dress like these when I got married. I'm afraid I eye wedding gowns with the thought of how much useable fabric for crazy quilting is in them (oops, is that bad??)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great exhibition! Lucky you having it in a local church! It reminded me that there was a V & A project to create a data base of wedding dresses through the years. I couldn't find the exact link, but found an article in the Daily Mail and hope you would find it of interest.
