Hollywood Gets Married Paper Dolls by David Wolfe

Here come the brides! Three pretty paper dolls model romantic wedding gowns worn by movie stars in Golden Age films and in real life, too. There’s a handsome groom to escort all the dolls down the aisle in some of their extravagant get-ups including famous bridal gowns worn by Grace Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor, Rita Hayworth, Audrey Hepburn, Lana Turner and more. Each outfit reflects the prevailing style of its time, on-screen and off, fairy tale fashions destined to live happily ever after…or not. Illustrations and commentary by David Wolfe. A fun collectible for classic movie buffs and fans of bridal paper dolls.
