Hi, can you send along your questions? Also we might have photos for your article, as this past season of weddings dresses at NYBFW had some 40's - 50's era influences. Both spring and fall shows. Which would be for the 2026 season as weddings are 1 year out. Things especially like headpieces, sleeves, gloves. I can put together some images if you want from some designers. I know post war mid 40s to 50s was more opulent, with more fabrics, etc.
Hi there, I spotted your request for expert comments on 1940s wedding trends and I wanted to share that Kunal Madan, wedding expert and CEO of DressPreservation.com (https://www.dresspreservation.com/), is more than willing to share his insights for your upcoming article on Parade. DressPreservation.com has been around since 1913, helping brides preserve over 3 million gowns with museum-quality care, giving Kunal a unique perspective on how bridal styles have evolved over the decades. Please feel free to send over your specific questions. Looking forward to hearing from you. Warm regards, Bernadette
