The Show-Girls Wedding
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Wallis Mills captures the excitement and unique flair of a 1929 showgirl wedding. The newlywed couple, dressed in elegant attire, exits the church, ready to embark on their new journey together. But instead of the traditional confetti toss or rice-throwing, they are greeted by an extraordinary guard of honor. A line of showgirls, their high-kicking legs raised in unison, forms a human barrier to shield the bride and groom from the crowds. Their dazzling costumes, adorned with sequins and feathers, shimmer in the sunlight. The energy and enthusiasm of the showgirls are palpable, adding an extra layer of excitement to the already momentous occasion. The bride, with a radiant smile on her face, holds onto her husband's arm, her veil billowing in the wind. The groom, equally elated, looks down at his wife, his eyes filled with love and admiration. The scene is a testament to the couple's unique personalities and the joyous spirit of their union. Wallis Mills, a renowned photographer of the time, expertly captures the essence of the moment, immortalizing it in this stunning photograph. The image not only showcases the excitement and glamour of a showgirl wedding but also the deep connection between the bride and groom. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the joy, love, and excitement that comes with the start of a new marriage.
