Cinema Wedding Gowns: Casanova Brown (1944)

This month's Cinema Wedding gown is worn by Anita Louise in Casanova Brown (1944). The costumes were by Muriel King. 

A look at the full gown. It is fitted through the hips and appears to have panels (mainly in the back) to give it a fuller look and a very short train. It's difficult to tell how long the veil is, as it goes behind a piece of furniture. It is either chapel or cathedral length. 

It appears to be a satiny brocade fabric.

A closer look at the neckline and sleeves. It had a medieval look to it. 
I love how the tulle frames her face.

A look at the shiny floral crown.

  1. Just before I read you saying it has a medieval look, I was thinking the stiff collar/cowl thing looked like Aurora's dress in the animated Sleeping Beauty!
