1930s Vintage Style Wedding Dresses

1930s vintage wedding dresses have reemerged as a style favourite for modern brides.

We still love the elegance and sophistication of gowns from this era which evoke memories of old Hollywood glamour. It was a time of devastating fabulousness – a time when sultry starlets ruled the silver screen.

Did You know….

The glitz and glamour of the 1930s grew out of the dawning of the Golden Age of Hollywood, when people sought escape from the Great Depression by flocking to the cinema to see big over-the-top studio productions. Flamboyant dance numbers and stars filmed through diffusion filters gave movies an other-worldly feel that captivated audiences. At the same time, modernist movements in architecture and interior design inspired elegant clean lines and structured forms.

Fashion followed suit, and wedding dresses of the 30’s era embraced the Art Deco trend with brides favouring streamlined and figure-hugging dresses in soft fabrics.

Features of the 1930s style wedding dress

‘30s style vintage wedding dresses represent femininity in all its glory – bias cut silk fabrics accentuate gorgeous curves and long flowing hem lines that skim along the floor give slim figures a beautiful silhouette.

Delicate beading around waists or on capped sleeves add sparkle to the shimmering silk/satin gown and diamontes, beads and pearl head pieces add a touch of glamour to structured waves.

The look is very statesque and form fitting yet very comfortable and easy to move in – perfect for the bride who wants a statement gown that will suit both a daytime wedding ceremony and an all-night reception soiree.

Does the 30s style suit the modern bride?

The original style of the 1930s wedding dress has been updated to suit the modern bride.

The gathered bust which often went right up to the neck line has been modified to flatter the décolletage, and full shoulders and long sleeves have given way to more popular sleeveless or capped sleeve designs.
