La verità NASCOSTA dietro l'abito della REGINA VITTORIA
Welcome to Perdo il Filo! In this first episode of "Cucistoria" Bridal Edition, we step into nineteenth-century workshops to debunk one of the greatest myths of contemporary fashion: the idea that the wedding dress has always been white. If today we consider pure white the only possible choice, we owe it to a specific historical moment and a decision that brought together high-quality textile manufacturing and geopolitics: Queen Victoria's wedding. We'll delve behind the scenes of that legendary dress, discovering the crucial role of Honiton lace and how the English monarchy literally saved an entire artisanal industry from industrial extinction. We'll also discover how sewing techniques have evolved to satisfy the new myth of the modern bride. Don't lose your thread!
