How to choose your wedding dress?

Since you have already chosen your wedding venue the next thing on to do is finding your wedding dress. In the 1950s there were beautiful actresses such as Marylin Monroe, Brigitte Bardot, Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn. Until today they are considered to be the beauty standards. They used to wear simple but feminine dresses that emphasized the beauty of woman's shape.

The most popular were the halterneck A-line dresses. These dresses typically have a tight boned bodice enhancing your waist and bust. This fashion was initiated by Dior under the name of the ''New Look'' and exists until today. The most important is that this style suits every woman, even the most demanding one. In the 1950s most dresses were made of silk. They were strapless and most women were covering the shoulders with a bolero.
