Gallery Tour - Unveiled, Take Two: Wedding Wear from New York State, 1880–1910
In choosing their wedding clothes, brides and grooms are influenced by fashion, economics, technology, religion, geography, celebrity, personal taste, and their role in society. This was as much the case in 19th and 20th centuries New York as it is today.
Wedding clothing holds memories, and pieces—dresses, shoes, suits, and head wear—are often preserved and passed to subsequent generations. A couple’s choices reveal historical information about both the individuals who wore them and those who made them. Unveil these stories with exhibit curator Connie Frisbee-Houde as she highlights pieces from the exhibition, Unveiled: Wedding Wear in 19th-century New York.
