A compilation of magazine ads
21. April 2000
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is a pretty little book, with lots of lovely color and black-and-white photographs of elegant gowns. It would make a nice gift for a newly engaged woman. For dressmakers like me, however, it's of very limited use.
First, a great many of the photos are recognizable from advertisements in bridal magazines. This means that little or no original photography was done for the book; the author probably just solicited photos from the manufacturers. More importantly, it means you can get the same pictures at a much lower cost just by buying "Brides" magazine instead of this book. The gowns in this book are from well-known mid- to high-end designers such as Vera Wang, Amsale, Christos, and St. Pucci. No couture designers are represented, which is a shame--couture designers have the freedom to be experimental and often provide the best inspiration, and photos of their designs are much more difficult to find than photos of yet another Vera Wang.
Second, it is poorly organized. Ostensibly it is organized in chapters by silhouette, necklines and sleeves, and embellishments. However, the chapter on silhouettes includes closely cropped photos that don't allow you to see the full outline of the gown, and the accompanying captions describe the neckline and back details. Then in the chapter on necklines and sleeves, there are some full-length photos with captions that describe the shape of the gowns. These aren't printing errors; the photos are obviously placed intentionally on the page, and the pagination is correct. It's simply a matter of poor organization and sloppy editing.
Third, the text, as usual for books of this type, was written by someone who doesn't sew and doesn't even seem to have looked at the photos very closely. One gown is described as having a halter neckline when it clearly doesn't. A simple straight sheath in a crisp fabric is described as "Grecian" when there is just nothing Grecian about it.
Finally, there is only one mention of custom work in the entire book. This is a major oversight!
If you are looking for a beautiful book about bridal gowns, some better choices are Maria McBride-Mellinger's "The Wedding Dress," or Larry Goldman's "Dressing the Bride."
