Gli abiti da sposa in stile anni '30 erano ispirati, almeno per chi poteva permetterselo, alle star dell'allora nuovissimo Cinema Hollywoodiano. Il tessuto era quasi sempre raso di seta, e il vestito poteva avere delle perline o essere scollato, ma per tutte valeva la regola del bianco, declinato in toni avorio o pastello. Le fotografie della galleria ricordano un'epoca che, per moltissimi, corrisponde a quella dei vestiti delle proprie nonne o bisnonne, nate all'inizio del '900 e, negli anni '30, ormai in età da matrimonio. Nonostante le immagini siano tutte di provenienza anglosassone (Stati Uniti), la moda dell'epoca prevedeva, anche in Italia, vestiti molto più grandi e ingombranti degli attuali, dove gigantesche gonne occupavano buona parte della scena.
