I had a fabulous opportunity of viewing a museum wedding dress exhibit at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London this summer and interviewing the curator, Edwina Ehrman and textile conservationist, Keira Miller.

After my interview we selected 20 favorite wedding gowns displayed in the exhibit to spotlight.

The wedding dresses range from elegant court gowns of the late 1700’s, to modern 2014 couture wedding gowns. There were 79 dresses in all. Each one was unique and amazing.

So take a few minutes and watch these videos and learn more about wedding dress history by seeing some of these delicious wedding dresses…
