Grandpa and Grandma in 1938
Prince Phillip and Princess Elizabeth This era was marked in bridal fashion by puffy sleeves (not as puffy as Anne of Green Gables though.) This gathered sleeve was in the Gibson style.
As WWII broke out, large elaborate weddings turned to small civil ceremonies, with grooms in uniform and short belted dresses for the bride. While bridal fashion turned practical, doing your hair during wartime became more glamorous. It was vogue to wear your hair on top of your head in a waved roll. Think Casablanca and It’s a Wonderful Life.
