The disign for the dress was traditional in many ways, but it could also be considered something of a departure in bridal wear. Indeed, when Helen Rose used a similar idea in 1952 for Dorothy McGuire's character in MGM's melodrama Invitation, she was said to have "upset style tradition by turning out something brand new in a wedding gown. The for the film consisted of a rose point lace blouse and a skirt that were "welded together" by a separate cummerbund. The supposed advantage of the design was that, after the marriage ceremony, the blouse could be worn with a smart dinner suit and could be paired with other blouses for formal wear.
