Wedding Dress | c. 1933
Worn by Margaret Whigham, later the Duchess of Argyll, for her marriage to Mr Charles Sweeny in the Brompton Oratory, 21 February 1933. The dress took a team of 30 seamstresses six weeks to make, and the bride thought it shockingly expensive at £52.
To be fair, that’s £2,663 in today’s money. But that means that each seamstress only got the equivalent of roughly £88 for their work. Still sweet fa for labour. :/
is everything I love.
