- Description
- Study of what the bride has worn - or been made to wear - from the time of the Greeks and the Romans, through the Middle Ages and up to the twentieth century. It covers the story of those brides whose cultural roots stem from the Christian religion, the Jewish faith upon which that religion is based, and the pagan rights it has absorbed.
