Here we have another gorgeous 1930’s vintage wedding gown. You can tell the era by the hip hugging mermaid like skirt. A nice deep v-neck with ruffle sleeves adds a simple touch of elegance to make you feel like a Hollywood bride. No way to tell if this is her husband or a vampire in the photo, but vintage gowns are sure to attract even the most soulless of men. 🙂

Satin Dreams Saturday, Jun 16 2012 

This dress is a 1940’s design made entirely of satin. The floral design adds texture to this gown, and the 3/4 length sleeves was very popular in the day. Gown found on eBay.

Simply Chiffon Wednesday, Jun 6 2012 

This wedding dress is from the 1940’s. It is made of chiffon and silk ribbon. I was drawn to this dress from the draping sleeves which is so forties. Found this on eBay.

I Was Blown Away By This Photo

Such a cute shot of a vintage wedding with the bride and groom literally swept up by the wind of it all. That wedding was a breeze. I also love this gown that fits so nicely formfitting and then has a ridiculously full train and veil.

1930’s Rayon & Silk Bridal Gown Wednesday, May 16 2012 

1930's Rayon & Silk Bridal Gown

Here’s a photo of a gorgeous vintage 30’s wedding dress made of silk and rayon. Very common in this era to have rayon blends, as it was fairly new to the mainstream fashions. I really enjoy the decor on the bodice that wraps around and continues on the train.
