1910s Vintage Wedding Dresses

How did 1910s Vintage Wedding Dresses look?

With the end of the 1900s, many things changed.

The classical wedding gowns in the Edwardian style started to be worn less, history changed, and new styles came in fashion.

The 1910s were a hard period. This was the time of the first world war, which meant that the fashion became more simple. The Edwardian style wasn't popular anymore so new styles appeared. However these styles weren't as fabulous and glamorous as the Edwardian one.

One major change was that the waistline of the dresses started to increase becoming one of the most popular trends of the time. Some people still wore wedding dresses at the natural waistline, but they were not as common anymore as the ones with the raised waistline.

If you like dresses with a raised waistline, than you should look for one of the 1910s vintage wedding dresses, because you might find exactly what you are looking for. The hemlines of the gowns also rose.

The dresses of this decade weren't as long as they used to be before. In the 1990s the Edwardian style wedding dresses were very long, they covered the shoes of the bride too, so absolutely nothing was visible from their legs. In the 1910s sometimes the shoes of the bride were visible.

The corsets of the wedding gowns were also longer, which gave an even slimmer look to women. The dresses were less full, they weren't made of so many fabrics as before. This gave a slender look to the brides, that's why gowns from the 1910s or reproductions from this age look great on every woman.

The wedding dresses had different sleeves than before as well: the sleeves were more wide on the shoulders and arms, and tight on the forearm. The Edwardian style dresses had very wide sleeves until the forearms. If you don't like to wear a retro wedding dress with a wide arm, than try one of the 1910s vintage wedding dresses.
