Clara Bow Modeling 1929 Wedding Gown

From the Clara Bow Archives.

WHITE WOOD VIOLETS - - Create disarmingly charming effects for the bridal costume worn by Clara Bow, Paramount star. The entire cap of the tulle veil is massed with the delicate blooms and a clever muff of the same quaint violets is carried over one wrist or with both hands demurely tucked beneath the fragrant petals. The gown is ivory satin, fashioned along period lines. A wide band of silver lace and pearls spreads across the neck-line and cascades over the shoulders into a graceful double train. The voluminous skirt does an upward drape at the front, revealing a facing of silver cloth. Unadorned white satin slippers and a single strand of pearls are the correct accessories for this enchanting creation.
