For Fashion Buffs and Romantics, a Never-Before-Seen Collection of Wedding Garb The Way We Wed: A History of Wedding Fashion presents styles and stories from the Renaissance to the present day, chronicling evolving fashions, classes, and expectations. And because all wedding attire has a tale to tell, The Way We Wed also reveals fascinating personal stories of those who wore it.
While the book is a rich source of bridal inspiration for all seasons, it''s far from a monotonous parade of white gowns. The Way We Wed showcases wedding gowns of all colors and styles from around the world, as well as going-away dresses, accessories (shoes, veils, hats, and tiaras), and clothes worn by flower girls, bridesmaids, mothers of the bride, and grooms. Same-sex weddings are represented, and the book features celebrity and historical couples as well as everyday people. A few of the included names:
- Angelina Jolie
- Frida Kahlo
- Elizabeth Taylor
- Princess Diana
- Martha Washington
- Solange Knowles
- Ellen DeGeneres
- Meghan Markle
Illustrated with 100 gorgeous photos, The Way We Wed is a rich celebration of the art of wedding fashion across time and cultures, and those whose style and circumstances made a statement.
