What's old is new again....

Watching Father of the Bride, and I noticed that Annie Banks' wedding dress (circa 1991) shares a striking similarity to that of Princess Kate!!! Over a decade later!!!

I guess it's a pretty timeless look! What do you think?

I just love that movie! They do look pretty similar. Actually I think my mom wore a dress like that.

Now that you mention it, my mom's wasnt too dissimilar either.. except hers had like a lacy mock-turtle neck... I laugh at her because the only skin she was showing was hands and head!


So if these styles from the past pop up again, do you think we'll a re-emergence of the gowns of the 80s???

Funny you say this bc I was looking at FMIL's wedding pics not long ago, and thought the sleeves and high neck were so similar to Kate's style dress. Funny how old becomes new, but that always happens. Like tapered leg pants.............. *shiver*

Ah, you're right! I recently watched FOB and realized it was pretty similar. Sans the ginamorous bows, of course. I also noticed my mom had a similar dress in the '80s. Hers also had the mock turtleneck. Still pretty!

my mom had a similar dress to Kate's...long sleeves (in the middle of July!!)

I hopeee the dresses of the 80's do not make a comeback-they were a bit too much for my liking!
