EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Bride and Bridesmaids - August 1940" offers a glimpse into the timeless beauty of weddings in the 1940s. The bride, adorned in a long white frilled dress, exudes elegance as she sits gracefully between her two attendants. Her tiara-type headdress adds a touch of regality to her ensemble, perfectly complementing the large bouquet she holds delicately in her hands. The bridesmaids, dressed in slim-fitting dresses with puff sleeves, stand proudly on either side of the bride. Their bonnets add an air of sophistication to their attire while small posies complete their charming look. Against the backdrop of this enchanting scene stands a windmill, providing a picturesque setting for this momentous occasion. Preserved within the Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office Ref. No. Garland N19708, this print captures not only the essence of marriage but also showcases the fashion and style prevalent during that era. It serves as a testament to how clothing choices and accessories like hats can enhance one's appearance on such special occasions. As we admire this beautiful image from history, let us appreciate its significance without any commercial implications or references to companies involved. Instead, let us celebrate love and tradition through this stunning portrayal of matrimonial bliss in wartime England during the 1940s
