Since wedding style was mentioned in yesterday's post, I wanted to quickly pop back with a few related links. The V & A 's upcoming exhibition schedule includes
Wedding Dresses 1775-2014, a show that will explore myriad incarnations of the iconic white fashion statement. Looking over the past two centuries, I'm partial to the slip dress, especially the example above, and this
1969 lace cheongsam in the museum's collection. But another V & A piece, the Indian-inspired hand-painted
Rajpunta wedding coat from 1970 is a must see. At the same time, The Met
offers online a wide array of wedding dresses and accessories representing
international looks, encompassing Vera Wang, Qing dynasty coats and folk pieces.
