Thank you so much for the time travel back with the gowns and the interesting story that goes with each gown and the time you took to research everything! It is much appreciated.

That’s a wonderful idea Sharon!

Wonderful passage thanks Sharon! I love the idea of a wedding dress being worn again. It is so sad that we spend so much money on just one day of our whole lives.
In saying that I adore modern wedding dresses 🙂
Understandable that in these eras excess was frowned upon. Thanks for sharing all the pics they are delightful!
The men are very dashing and handsome in their attire. They don’t need anything more, I think they look perfect 😉

Thank you again for sharing. Of the pictures you posted, my favorite gown was the Danish wedding gown of cotton ecru. The embroidery is beautiful.

So very interesting, and I can see Lizzy and Darcy wearing these outfits. I do dread the Victorian outfits – those huge “caboose” skirts are ugly! And the corsets that made it difficult to breathe….

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!

Sharon, this is a wonderful series. Thanks so much for your research and for sharing it with us. I find myself visiting this site often as you never know what can be learned. Also like your Zazzle store (though my husband doesn’t after I ordered). Two thumbs up!

Holy sleeves Batman. That plate from 1831 better aim for wide doorways. LOL I actually love the practicality of this, I hate having my wedding dress in a box in a closet. Wish it were something that could be reused, it just seems like such a waste.
