Lovers of fine fashion will be thrilled to hear that the Bendigo again a fantastic exhibition of fashion from London's Victoria and Albert Museum of decorative arts.

Of the website:

The White Wedding Dress presents the most romantic, glamorous and extravagant wedding dresses of the & Victoria Albert Museum beautiful collection. Every woman wants to look beautiful for her wedding and today, the traditional West-European white wedding dress is the garment of choice for brides in different countries and cultures. This exhibition asks why and how this has happened.

The display will include Dita Von Teese wedding dress – hopefully the incredible Vivien Westwood one, but since it is not mainly white us her ' 40s war bride can bring suit. Either would be wonderful!
