"Vicky"


His couture house was established in 1953, Jacques Esterel.  He was very successful the first few years as he was quite a fashion enthusiastic.  It was illustrated by the "Vicky", which is a bridal gown designed for a french actress, Brigitte Bardot.


This is the "Vicky" bridal dress that Brigitte Bardot wore in 1959.
Compare to todays bridal dresses, this is very simple and short.  Today a brides dress would be more enthusiastic with volume and also the length of the dress.  It's usually longer and exaggerated.
