It is all Queen Victoria's fault
So, I am blaming a royal for doing something. What did she do? What was that something that was her fault, that shook the continental plates all over the globe?... I will tell you now. In 1840, Queen Victoria chose to break fashion law, to not wear the traditional coronation robes when she married her cousin, Prince Albert... Instead, she chose (listen to this). she chose to wear a white dress. It was all over the newspapers around the world, a sensation. She was the top celebrity at the time and women just had to have her look and has been copied ever since. The colour white ha d upon this point represented virginity and purity but after the queens' coup, white now came to symbolize wealth and status, and who does not want to look like a million bucks on their wedding day? I absolutely do! So, today it arrived... ordered online and it is absolutely stunning... Too bad you cannot see it just yet. I took a big risk ordering a tailormade, fit for a queen, dress on...
