Whose wedding dress designed by james Mainbocher became the most copied dress of the 1930s?
The grayish-blue, Wallis blue, of the Duchess of Windsor’s wedding dress, as well as the long, fluid crpe dress itself, was widely copied. The simple, conservative elegance of Mainbocher’s style, feminine but not fussy, perfectly suited the slim, severe good looks of the Duchess and wealthy women like her.
