Classic White Color For Bridal Gown
Ever since Queen Victoria wed in 1840, however, white has
remained the traditional color for wedding gowns and bouquets. A
woman then used her dress for Court Presentation after marriage,
usually with a different bodice. It has been accepted taditional
color of the wedding dress, but wedding gowns were not always
white. The marriage of Queen Victoria to her cousin Albert of
Saxe- Coburg in 1840 has had more influence on weddings than any
other. Queen Victoria put the wheels in motion by marrying in
white.
Though brides continued to wed in gowns of different colors,
white was now set as the color of choice for weddings and has
continued ever since. In Godey's Lady's Book, 1849, this
statement was printed: " Custom has decided, from the earliest
ages, that white is the most fitting hue, whatever may be the
material. It is an emblem of the purity and innocence of
girlhood, and the unsullied heart she now yields to the chosen
one." There is an old poem about how the color of your wedding
dress will influence your future: "Married in white, you will
have chosen all right. Married in grey , you will go far away.
Married in black, you will wish yourself back. Married in red,
you will wish yourself dead. Married in blue, you
will always be
true. Married in pearl, you will live in a whirl. Married in
green, ashamed to be seen, Married in yellow, ashamed of the
fellow. Married in brown, you will live out of town. Married in
pink, your spirits will sink."
White is still the top favorite for wedding gowns an exclusive
range of bridal gown in classic white color. Which have
the''sublime''quality designed by couture designer Andy anand
who believes that ''less is more'', these bridal gowns are made
like a ''piece of art'' they are very light white and other
shades of white color has been used to give it the classic touch
yet they are modern.
Wedding gowns have not always been elaborate, as many are today.
In the eighteenth century, poor brides dressed in simple robes.
This symbolized to her future husband that she brought nothing
with her into the marriage and would therefore not burden him
with any debt. It wasn't until the mid nineteenth century that
the all-white wedding dress became fashionable. Up until then a
bride simply wore her best dress, regardless of its color. In
1840, Queen Victoria's pure white gown started the trend that
many women follow today.
