A step by step introduction to the Vintage inspired wedding dresses influenced by the 1920’s, 1930’s, 1940’s, 1950’s, 1960’s and 1970’s by the designer Astral Sundholm-Hayes.

The 1940’s is probably my brides favourite Silhouette as the focus in on the waist framed by the shoulders and fuller skirt of the wedding dress.

The 1940’s is also a great time for women as the short sleeve became very popular in evening wear, although traditionally bridal gowns would have had long sleeves, but today’s brides favour a short sleeve so I have designed my vintage wedding dresses with this in mind.

1940’s Vintage inspired crepe wedding gown with quilted wide band and flattering crossover front top half with covered shoulders and open back detail held in place with a Swarovski crystal button, the gown has a full bias cut skirt which drapes across the floor as you walk with slight extended train behind to elongate the silhouette.
