If you making a wedding dress, look for wedding dress paterns (stay away from costume patterns!). Ultra formal weddings were the norm, and for the first time in the twentieth century, wedding dressmakers stopped basing their designs on the most popular styles of day or evening wear. Designers preferred to create Cinderella-like fantasies, with fitted bodices, cinched-in waistlines, and huge skirts ballooning out from underneath. To wear these dresses properly, a bride needed to wear layers of hoop skirts or the combination of a cinch-waist corset and a foundation garment called a bombast, which made the dress spring out from the waist. This type of dress usually came in 2 lengths, to the floor and the popular ballerina length that stopped at the lower calf and looked like a long tutu. Wedding fabric ranged from formal bridal satins and shantungs to light tulle and organdies. Dresses had either long fitted sleeves, short cap sleeves or were completely strapless. Veils in the 1950s were short and billowy. Most were between elbow and flyaway length. Hair was cut to the same length everywhere on the head (so i you have too short of hair, or bangs, you won be able to do these hair styles). Long hair is ok, and actually a good thing because it let you do more with your hair. Also don worry about dying your hair a certain color. Back then natural was the only way to go (that or blue!).
To prep your hair, you need to curl it (don use a curling iron). You want to use "Setting Lotion" when you curl your hair with sponge curlers or pin curls to get your curls to be uniform (let set until dry, or sleep in your curlers). When you curl your hair, you also want to do it in layers as indicated on the website (think rows of where you want to put rolls). You want a row of curls (curling the hair back) that follows your face around the top and sides.abendkleider gr 38
When styling your hair, don get frustrated if it takes a while. You will need a lot of hair spray and bobby pins. Even using this, your hair may not do what you want it to do, because it takes a while to train your hair to style the way you want it to.
You probably want some waves or curls on the front top and sides, then put the rest of your hair in a hair net or snood (you want to brush it out big after you curle it so that it fills the hair net uniformly).
Practice, practice, practice! As you style your hair like this more often, it becomes easier, and your hair easier to manage. I have a friend who does WWII reinacting and she can put her hair in pin curls while driving to work!
