Wedding Dresses Fashion Guide |
People say that the only thing a woman prepares more carefully than her
wedding is her child’s wedding. And a big part of it s
getting a wedding dress. Today it’s hard to imagine that in
the Middle Ages there were no special wedding
dresses. Brides wore
something to show their status, so girls from wealthy families would
wear rich colors and expensive fabrics (furs, velvet and silk) and
poorer girls could go with their best church dress.
Years have passed and eventually wedding dresses and wedding
accessories have become a separate industry. 1840, the year of Queen
Victoria and Albert of Saxe-Coburgwas marriage) was a very important
year for the wedding dresses fashion, as when Victoria appeared in a
white gown on the official wedding portrait photograph, thousands of
brides were choosing white for their wedding dresses to honor the
Queen's choice and today’s western wedding dresses are
usually white (including creamy shades).
Even as wedding dresses fashion turned into something very unique and
special it still followed the rest of women’s clothes
fashion. So 1920s were the time of short in the front wedding dresses
with a longer train in the back. Wedding dresses fashion strongly
depended on the current women’s clothes fashion
until the
late 1940s, when Victorian style long, full-skirted dresses got back.
And this trend is still dominating even though Western wedding
tradition accepts all the kinds of color and variety of lengths for the
wedding dress.
Today, there are wedding dresses and bridesmaid dresses are available
in all price ranges you can buy ready-made designer wedding dress, wear
a family heirloom, or have a dressmaker create the dress especially for
you. Whichever wedding dresses fashion you chose, remember that one of
the most important wedding accessories is the bride’s smile.
