ONCE UPON A TIME
One of the nicer aspects of aging would have to be 'remembering when' and actually seeing ads like these in daily papers back in the 1970s when fashion illustrations were still the norm. Thanks to Wendy Hartigan of Bridal Affairs in Philadelphia,we have these great fashion illustrations.. She sent me these clippings along with some editorials from Bride's from her mother's files. The above photo of the bride in a helmet-like headpiece and waterfall veil is from the late sixties; the bottom image late seventies when the gypsy-chic of Oscar de la Renta and YSL was all the rage; this is the era I cut my teeth in . . .
