1930`s Bridal Dresses
Fashion has been adapting nowadays lifestyle more and more. Fashion keeps changing season after season, year after year. It is also said that trends repeat themselves with every 20 years. Of course, with some modifications, but basically it comes back the same. Go and ask your mothers or grandmothers if they used to wear at some point of their life what you are wearing now if you don’t believe me!But have you ever thought of how fashion presented itself years ago? What was before nowadays fashion? What was trendy, what was “en vogue”?
First of all, wedding dresses of 1930s are being shown to us with longer lenghts, about four inches belowe the knee. The 1920s cut skirts very short, but the fashion designers of the 1930s thought it’s best to give up the mini skirts. Therefore, the preferable length for sleeves was long too. Sometimes, the sleeves were puffed. Secondly, the wedding dresses were worn with something on the bride’s head, named a headdress, made of lace usually. It was a sign of purity and innocence.
Furthermore, the waistline has begun to shift upward. So a new type of silhouette was advertised according to the new fashion trends. Bias cut was also used along. The middle thirties took the length of the dress somewhere near the ankle, and the dress was worn with a bodice on the waist. Some even had trains. Lace and satin were some of the preferd fabric the gowns were made of. The hats also changed their form to keep up with the fashion of the 1930s. And some brides wore them.
It is estimated that a 1930′s trousseau was worth somewhere around 390$. It included the wedding gown, probably made of satin, a veil, which was never excluded, a 3 piece going away suit and a suitcase of other items which amounted to more than 5 types of dresses, a full coat, jackets, lingerie and more sundry items. More details can be found here, also along with other examples of fashion trends of the 1930s.
It’s not too different from the wedding dresses nowadays that want to imitate the fashion of those years, is it? As we can see, elements of couture form 1930s are still being used, with little transformations. And then again, try to imagine a wedding dress like the ones above, accessorised with some fine jewelry and a beautiful bouquet. Most of the bouquets of those years were made with white lillies, as a symbol of purity, but this wasn’t a rule. Shoes never had high heels, but medium or small ones.
In my opinion, 1930s fashion showed a woman that was still a child or at least considered a child that was starting her life just then. Little skin was shown. You could call these wedding dresses as being pretty much sober. But would you wear such a dress? Do you think it could rise up to the expectations nowadays fashion has?

The History of the Wedding Dresses
The dress worn by the bride and the bridegroom on the day of the wedding ceremony is very important. Actually there is no wedding without wedding dress, but the wedding ring and the wedding cake are indispensable too. Every culture and every civilization, every social class has its own wedding ceremony customs and rituals. And every wedding item used during the wedding ceremony has its own meaning and importance.
The history of the wedding dress begins with the ancient Egypt, in the oldest civilization of humanity. What did an ancient Egyptian bride wear on the day of her wedding? Let`s take a short look upon the life of the ancient Egyptian woman. A woman in ancient Egypt could not be forced to get married. They got married very young, between age 12 to 14 and they had even the right to divorce, after a good cause given at the court law. The custody of the kids and other material rights were also allowed for the divorcing woman. So, women in the ancient Egypt had more rights than in other ancient cultures. The usually clothing for the wedding ceremony was a dress or a tunic made of linen. There was no hard ceremony but a lot of music, dance and food.
Another important question about the wedding dress is: have the brides always worn white? The right answer is NO! Bright colored wedding dresses signifying the joy of the bride were more popular in the ancient times. The white wedding dresses became familiar only after the Victorian age.
What did the traditional roman bride wear on the day of her wedding? She wore a simple tunic dress with a colored veil. The veil was full of flowers collected by the bride. Can you imagine that, girls? But the ornament of the dress was not only the veil but the belt tied around her waist in the knot of Hercules, as married life was guarded in the ancient Rome by Hercules.
In the medieval times the colour of blue represented purity. Before Victorian times the silver coloured dress was the conventional wedding dress for royal brides. The white wedding is connected to the Victorian era. White did not become popular until 1840, after the marriage of Queen Victoria to Albert of Saxe-Coburg.
The white gown is in fact a symbolic Christening gown. The tradition of white continues today, too. The white dress became the most popular choice for weddings in the western culture.
What about the Asian and native American culture? Red is the traditional colour for Eastern culture, as South Indian weddings traditionally use red or gold-colored saris, as Japanese brides wear the traditional kimono. There are particular customs for Hopi brides and other women belonging to different native American tribes, too.
There is a traditional rhyme about the colour of the wedding dress:
„Married in White, you have chosen right,
Married in Blue, your love will always be true,
Married in Pearl, you will live in a whirl,
Married in Brown, you will live in town,
Married in Red, you will wish yourself dead,
Married in Yellow, ashamed of your fellow,
Married in Green, ashamed to be seen,
Married in Pink, your spirit will sink,
Married in Grey, you will go far away,
Married in Black, you will wish yourself back.”
Maybe this rhyme is going to help you to choose at least the colour of your wedding dress. The dress has to express your individual style. Please, do not get nervous! As you could see, the dress of the bride has a very various and complex tradition. Getting married was in the past even a matter of politics.
Poor and famous, royal people got married. The dress worn on the wedding represented the social class of the bride, as marriage was not only a union between two people, but rather a political or financial contract between two families, two businesses or two countries!
So, after all, the job of the modern bride is a little bit “easier”: she has only the task to find a good dressmaker or a good bride salon or wedding dress shop!

Bridal Gowns on Discount
The option of a discount bridal gown has always been a choice for the brides who are in search of an affordable wedding gown that is at the same time elegant and dream-like designed.
Wedding dresses in the fashion industry follow most of the time the same pattern: to be with every year re-invented in a format that can constitute the on-fashion of the year to come.
Therefore many fashion designers involved in bridal fashion as well will remain faithful to this pattern releasing every year new models of bridal gowns that are worth being worn by the richest brides in the world.
So, as it happens with everything that comes being classified as new in the fashion world will have to replace the old, and as such what was new this year will become old at the latest at the end of the fall of the same year. Generally the new models that are about to be on fashion for the next year are released previously for the people to know what are they supposed to wear in the year to come.
The consumers on the fashion market have to know what is there to wear for them to be trendy and updated with the most recent new comings in the world of fashion.
The old items that are about to be replaced will pretty soon become items to be sold on discount. Since the wedding dresses follow the same rule with the new style of the next year’s trends, there will be the old wedding gowns that need to be replaced by the new models, and as such what is old has to be sold under the label of discount bridal gowns.
Now, let us be fair: do you really think that if you would buy a discount bridal gown that is considered already a design one year old, one can make the difference?
There won’t be a soul among your wedding guests to say “Hey, look, the bride is wearing a design one year old of a wedding dress!”. Actually in the bridal fashion is rather hard to distinguish which model belongs to last year fashion or the one to belong to this year.
The reason is the style of a wedding dress which is similar to any other year, only the fabric and the combinations of these fabrics and details can bring something new with every year, otherwise, they usually look the same.
Now you can not argue as this aspect is seen from afar, especially if you consider the fact that the vintage wedding dresses are still preferred nowadays as models that are seen as one-of-a-kind in the modern days of sophisticated designs of a bridal fashion.
Wedding dresses in the fashion industry follow most of the time the same pattern: to be with every year re-invented in a format that can constitute the on-fashion of the year to come.
Therefore many fashion designers involved in bridal fashion as well will remain faithful to this pattern releasing every year new models of bridal gowns that are worth being worn by the richest brides in the world.
So, as it happens with everything that comes being classified as new in the fashion world will have to replace the old, and as such what was new this year will become old at the latest at the end of the fall of the same year. Generally the new models that are about to be on fashion for the next year are released previously for the people to know what are they supposed to wear in the year to come.
The consumers on the fashion market have to know what is there to wear for them to be trendy and updated with the most recent new comings in the world of fashion.
The old items that are about to be replaced will pretty soon become items to be sold on discount. Since the wedding dresses follow the same rule with the new style of the next year’s trends, there will be the old wedding gowns that need to be replaced by the new models, and as such what is old has to be sold under the label of discount bridal gowns.
Now, let us be fair: do you really think that if you would buy a discount bridal gown that is considered already a design one year old, one can make the difference?
There won’t be a soul among your wedding guests to say “Hey, look, the bride is wearing a design one year old of a wedding dress!”. Actually in the bridal fashion is rather hard to distinguish which model belongs to last year fashion or the one to belong to this year.
The reason is the style of a wedding dress which is similar to any other year, only the fabric and the combinations of these fabrics and details can bring something new with every year, otherwise, they usually look the same.
Now you can not argue as this aspect is seen from afar, especially if you consider the fact that the vintage wedding dresses are still preferred nowadays as models that are seen as one-of-a-kind in the modern days of sophisticated designs of a bridal fashion.
