Here Comes the Bride (Wedding Dress)
Description
Something old, something new: possibly the most revered garment in a woman's wardrobe, the wedding dress, is seen in a new light. This episode shows how white came to be standard for the wedding dress, how royals have inspired thousands of brides - even before Princess Diana - and how veil and dress lengths have fluctuated with the styles and trends of the times.
