Eleanor Roosevelt was married in a high-neck gown with long sleeves and lots of lace. This dress has all the same elements, but it's anything but old-fashioned.

Big Fat Gypsy Wedding

Big Fat Gypsy Weddings is to return for a one-off episode next Monday and features two new traveller brides: Ina and Danielle, both 16. Both are marrying their first loves and are pulling out all the stops to make their supersized glittery weddings go with a bang.
Sweet sixteen: Teenage bride, Ina Casey, arrives at her wedding in classic Traveller style

Ina, who is marrying her first (and only) boyfriend has set her heart on an outfit made from a 'glitter fabric' material more commonly used in wallpaper. Despite her youth, Ina is convinced she has met 'the one', saying: 'Some people have to kiss 100 frogs to get their prince, I only had to kiss one.'
But as the wedding draws nearer the reality of leaving her family to start a new life begins to kick in and on the big day itself, the emotions come flooding out. Ina's cousin and Maid of Honour is 18-year-old Estella. As she points out 'you spend half your life playing with Barbie dolls and the other half trying to look like one', but unlike Ina, Estella is in no hurry to settle down just yet.
