Simple War Era Wedding Dresses
The fashions for weddings during the first half of the 1940s were limited by war rationing. Both food and clothing were rationed across the UK and U.S. For this reason, many brides in the early 1940s of modest means ended up wearing practical dresses. Utility clothing in Great Britain was typical civilian wear, so women often borrowed dresses from others or wore their best dress. They would “mend or make do” with whatever was available. Suit styles were popular both in the U.S. and overseas. If you need wedding dress visit Wedding dress shops bridgend, they offer dresses that are affordable.
