EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning vintage wedding dress, created by American artist Nancy Crimi in 1936, is a beautiful example of the elegant and intricate bridal fashion of the 1930s. The dress, depicted in this graphite and watercolor drawing on paperboard, features a classic A-line silhouette with a fitted bodice and a full, voluminous skirt. The dress is adorned with delicate buttons that run down the length of the bodice, adding a touch of sophistication and charm. The dress is a period item from the 20th century, specifically the 1930s, a time when fashion was heavily influenced by the Art Deco movement. The dress reflects the cultural values and aesthetic sensibilities of the era, with its clean lines, geometric shapes, and rich colors. This artwork is part of the Index of American Design, a project initiated by the Federal Art Project of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) in the 1930s. The project aimed to document American decorative arts and folk arts through drawings and photographs. This drawing of the wedding dress by Nancy Crimi is now housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and is a valuable addition to the gallery's extensive collection of American art. The wedding dress is a symbol of the joy and celebration of marriage, a tradition that has been passed down through generations. This beautiful artwork captures the essence of that tradition, transporting us back in time to a bygone era of grace and elegance.
