EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Fashion 1960s: Here comes the Bride in Paper" we are transported back to a time when fashion dared to be bold and unconventional. Meet Jenny Crowe, a stunning 23-year-old model who fearlessly dons a throwaway wedding dress made entirely of paper. This innovative creation not only saves girls from breaking their piggy banks at just 37 shillings but also challenges the sentimental attachment that previous generations had towards preserving their wedding gowns. Manufactured by skilled artisans from Crosby, near Liverpool, this paper gown is designed to withstand any weather conditions - whether it be spilt champagne or heavy rain. As Jenny confidently poses for the camera, her bouquet held tightly in hand, we can't help but admire the juxtaposition between fragility and strength portrayed through this extraordinary ensemble. The creators behind this revolutionary garment believe that today's modern women are less inclined to hold onto material possessions like dresses as cherished heirlooms. Instead, they embrace change and welcome new trends with open arms. This photograph serves as a testament to the ever-evolving nature of fashion and its ability to challenge societal norms. It captures an era where experimentation was celebrated and traditional expectations were shattered. So let us celebrate Jenny Crowe's fearless spirit as she embodies both beauty and resilience in her one-of-a-kind throwaway wedding dress from July 1969.
