From the whole, the bridal look of Madonna is very special. Madonna chose a wedding dress matching a veil which looked like kerchief for Arabian kings, because Madonna is an authoritarian feminist. Nowadays, women are equal to men, so many women try to dress themselves in a way of breaking the manacles of tradition. Therefore, Madonna’s wedding dress is a good example for women who value equality between sexes.
Madonna’s wedding dress is very simple. A-line, straight neckline and full length make up all the characters of the wedding dress. There seem no lace appliqué, no handmade flowers, no beads, no rouched bodices and no pleated ruffles on the wedding dress. The only dramatizing character is the veil. It is made of lace with exquisite patterns of flowers and leaves. However, Madonna did not wear it the same way as many bride used. She dished her hair up with a flat stage above the head, and fixed the veil on the stage with a huge metal ring so that the veil just looks like a crown or the scarf of Arabian kings. Besides, when Madonna and her husband walked out, it was her husband holding Madonna’s arm. It must be a glory for any bride if she has a husband holds her arms on wedding.
Besides her real wedding, Madonna also has several wedding looks. Among them, two looks are from her earlier time. At that time, she was just a singer for a short time. These bridal looks are girlish and sweet. Lace and tulle creates soft mood we seldom saw on Madonna. Another noticeable bridal look is very princess. When fluffy ball gown and veil meeting rear dignified look and pose, Madonna is like a goddess coming from haven.
