Famous Bridal Gowns in Movies

Two of the most legendary style icons of any time are Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly. Ask any bride whose style she would love to emulate on her wedding day, and she will very likely name these two beauties. They both starred in movies in the mid 1950s wearing very special bridal gowns that are still inspiring brides today.

One of the most famous movie dresses of all time is the stunning ballerina length bridal gown worn by Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face.

It would be a wonderful choice for an afternoon garden wedding or a morning ceremony in a church. The absence of a train also makes this a great option for a bride who loves to dance.

Accessories for this type of gown should include a very fluffy veil (possibly only to the waist), pretty shoes, and very polished looking jewelry. Bridal jewelry sets with classic pearls would be lovely for a 1950s inspired wedding dress. The portrait neckline is made...
