Beautiful Wedding Dresses of Famous Celebrities in the 1950s

The bridal fashion trends have significantly changed over time, but the classic white dress has stayed in fashion since the Victorian era. During the 1950s Ball gowns with huge skirts were very popular. The strapless trend also came into fashion in the late 1950s due to the high-neck, long-sleeved dresses. The Tea Length wedding dresses were also the first choice of every bride. With dresses of tulle, they create a stunning, waist-cinching silhouette, as well as a sweet and fun bridal look.

Here are some fabulous photos of some of the biggest Hollywood actresses from the 1950s that show what they wore on their wedding day. Elizabeth Taylor, Brigitte Bardot, Audrey Hepburn, or Marilyn Monroe have had different styles of bridal dresses on their wedding day.
