Yet brides who feed the nation’s current obsession to the tune of more than $160 billion annually may be astonished to learn how much things have changed. Fashion illustrator Norma Lu Meehan and costume curator Mei Campbell draw upon collections at the Northern Indiana Center for History and the Museum of Texas Tech University to illuminate the evolution of wedding dress in the United States from 1859 to 1899. This exquisitely illustrated work situates the white wedding dress and current perceptions of tradition within a surprisingly varied and colorful history.FROM THE BOOKWhen Americans think of Victorian wedding dress . . . we recall antique photographs and tintypes,Norma Lu Meehan, Mei Campbell,Victorian Wedding Dress in the United States: A History through Paper Dolls,Texas Tech University Press,0896726614,Paper dolls - United States - History - 19th century,Paper dolls;United States;History;19th century.,Wedding costume - United States - History - 19th century,Wedding costume;United States;History;19th century.,19th century,Art,Art & Art Instruction,CRAFTS & HOBBIES Papercrafts,Crafts & HobbiesPapercrafts,Customs & Traditions,DESIGN Textile & Costume,Design,History,Non-Fiction,Paper dolls,Papercrafts,ReferenceWeddings,SOCIAL SCIENCE Customs & Traditions,Social ScienceCustoms & Traditions,Textile & Costume,UNIVERSITY PRESS,United States,Wedding costume
