Flip through just about any catalog with women's fashions from the 1920s - 1960s and you're bound to see clothing sized for, and aimed at, no less than three categories of women: Juniors (usually for teens and slender younger women under 30), Misses (for gals in their 20s - 40s+), and Women's styles, sometimes also called "fashions for the older (or graceful) lady" geared towards those aged 40 - 50 and up

A fit-and-flare wedding dress might be appropriate for a more traditional occasion, while a mermaid-style wedding sweetheart dress would look stunning for a contemporary or seaside wedding
While satin and velvet are more upscale materials appropriate for formal weddings in the autumn or winter, tulle, chiffon, and organza are perfect for a charming and airy look that is lovely for spring or summer nuptials
