Description: Vintage Oceanna Handmade Halterneck Bridal Dress. Labelled as Size 14. 50% Silk, 50% Polyester. Lining: 100% Acetate. Dry Clean Only
For most of the 1950s, the sweetheart neckline, full skirt, and small waist was the classic silhouette, with this dress being a perfect example. The brides were encouraged to be like their Hollywood icons, and dress themselves in the most expensive gowns they could afford. With the boom of capitalism and assembly line, wedding dresses were finally offered “off the rack”, which was more affordable for brides. Brides could now afford a dream wedding, topped with her dream wedding gown, made complete with just as glamorous accessories. Beyond anything else, the 1950s was a decade identified with elegance, etiquette, and decorum.
