The vintage era lasted from the beginning of the 20th century until its end.
Due to this fact there is a very big difference between some of the vintage decades. While many retro times were characterized by simplicity especially those in the time of the war, there were some decades of the vintage era that are remembered as the most glamorous years of the 20th century.
After the wars ended a lot of people felt the need to make up for the years when they couldn't afford anything. In these times cocktail parties became very popular, and women bought dresses made of beautiful and expensive fabrics, they wore jewelery made of diamonds, crystals, gold, silver and everyone tried to look like a Hollywood star.
A lot of people just love those times: everyone was so chic and sexy then and luxury was a part of everyday life. If you love luxury and elegance, you should have a vintage glamor wedding. These glamor weddings have a touch of the antique elegance in them and also a lot of modern style.
It's easy to organize a retro glamor wedding and many people have similar events every year. For such a wedding you can send out vintage glamor invitations that can be found on the internet and in bridal shops. When you choose your retro wedding dress, you shouldn't forget that only a fancy dress would fit to such an occasion and accessories are a must. Gloves, hats, shoes, a purse and elegant jewelry is what will make you look like a glamorous retro bride.
Another important thing that you shouldn't forget is make-up. Women after the war wanted to emphasize their femininity and because of that they used a lot of make-up. Eyeliner, eyeshadow and lipstick is what made these women have that special chic look.
They wore their hair short and wavy, which was very elegant and sexy as well. If you keep all these in mind, you will have the most fabulous vintage glamor wedding ever.
