Samenvatting:

This text is a review of wedding fashion since 1900. Chapter by chapter, the book outlines the changes from the ostentatious Edwardian wedding gowns of the early 20th century to the knee length flapper gowns of the 1920's, inspired by Parisian couture and the designer Coco Chanel. By the 1930's Hollywood reigned and film-star weddings, publicised both on the silver screen and in fan magazines, brought a touch of glamour into the ceremony, which was soon to be cut short by the restrictions of World War II.
