Armand Bridal Bride Dresses Gown Gowns Martial Weddings
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning wedding gown, designed by the renowned French fashion house Martial and Armand in 1912, is a breathtaking example of early 20th century bridal fashion. The gown is made of parchment-tinted crepe meterore, a luxurious and elegant fabric that adds an ethereal quality to the dress. The intricate embroidery on the gown is executed in mousseline de soie, a fine and delicate silk, which adds a beautiful textured contrast to the smooth crepe. The year 1912 marked a significant shift in bridal fashion, as traditional Victorian styles began to give way to more modern and streamlined designs. This gown represents the best of both worlds, with its timeless elegance and contemporary flair. The high neckline, long sleeves, and A-line silhouette are reminiscent of the Victorian era, while the simple, uncluttered lines and understated beauty of the gown are distinctly modern. The bride who wore this gown on her wedding day would have felt like a true princess, swathed in luxury and sophistication. The intricate embroidery and delicate fabric would have shimmered and swayed as she moved, catching the light and drawing admiring glances from all around. This beautiful gown is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the Martial and Armand atelier, and a reminder of the enduring allure of classic bridal fashion.
