Wedded Perfection: Two Centuries of Wedding Gowns
“Wedded Perfection is a delight” Alexendra Eastman,Piecework“Much more than a catalogue.” “The academic approach unravels the layers of human, social and economic history so often locked into historical objects” Althea Mackenzie,Costume“Beautiful images and enlightening essays” Heather Vaughan,Worn Through“A scholarly record”, Eve M.Kahn,New York Times“A showcase of beautiful dresses, and…a study of the status of women in the past 200 years” Kathy Schwartz,Cincinnati Enquirer“A thoroughly enjoyable book, I would highly recommend it to all students of creative subjects. It raises timeless issues of gender equality, society and the ever changing roles of women, and does so in a way that still enables all girls to picture themselves lavishly clad in an elaborate vintage frock. Perfection!” Rosaleen Gallagher,LSMedia.com
