Was at a 20s/30s wedding in June past...The 'other women' of the wedding party all wore shades of beige silk and lace...including mothers and grandmother. The BMs had different styles (kneeish) Quite a lovely affair. ________________________________________ From: h-costume-boun...@indra.com <h-costume-bouen...@indra.com> on behalf of Susan <scour...@nwlink.com> Sent: Wednesday, January 27, 2016 3:09 AM To: Historical Costume Subject: Re: [h-cost] Wedding wear
Lace perhaps, but Not Beige. Leaning toward a 30s formal inspired dress.
