The history of ladies' attire in the form of a dress goes back hundreds of years. The first dresses appeared in the 9th-10th centuries AD; scientists attribute this to the widespread spread of the Christian religion, which suggested different clothing for men and women.
A lot of time has passed since then, and people have created a huge number of different styles of dresses. Great couturiers never tired of creating new items that managed to appear in cinema on the impeccable figures of actresses. Many of them could not leave the viewer indifferent.
In our article you can find out exactly which 10 dresses made it into fashion history.
Marilyn Monroe's white dress
The actress wore this outfit in the film “The Seven Year Itch” (1955), created by designer William Travilla. This dress went down in cinematic history.
There is a scene in the film that shows the pleated skirt of the main character's (Marilyn Monroe) dress flying up due to the flow of air. This outfit became the most famous in the designer’s work, for which he received an Oscar. In 2011, a statue depicting the actress in her famous white dress was erected in Chicago and was later moved to Palm Springs.
Grace Kelly's dress from the movie To Catch a Thief
The viewer who watched this film may remember the scene where the future princess of Monaco is dressed in a beautiful white strapless dress. The filming process was directed by Alfred Hitchcock; it was he who approved this outfit, since it not only emphasized the exquisite and sophisticated beauty of the actress, but also served as a drapery for the diamond necklace on her neck, from which nothing should distract the eye.
Makeup for a green dress
When wearing a green dress, think about your makeup. It’s impossible to say for sure what it should be in your particular case, because it depends on the shade of green and your color type of appearance. For sure, we can only say that you should choose cool tones of lipstick and blush for cold shades of green, and warm ones for warm shades.

Audrey Hepburn's black dress from the film Breakfast at Tiffany's
The film was released in 1961; its hallmark was the magnificent black long dress of the actress playing the main role. The style appealed to many people; it is considered an example of good taste and elegance.
The outfit was created by the talented designer Hubert Givenchy. He made the right decision; the dress combined mystery, elegance and simplicity; the back of the outfit had an unusual neckline. In addition, the actress’s look was complemented by long black gloves, a necklace, a crystal tiara and earrings, a cigarette holder, and sunglasses.
The famous green dress from the movie Gone with the Wind
The film was released in 1939, based on the novel of the same name by Margaret Mitchell. 31 dresses were made for his main character Scarlett (Vivien Leigh). Each outfit undoubtedly deserves attention, but the green dress made from Mother Scarlett’s heavy velvet curtains was especially attractive. The creator of the masterpiece was Walter Plunkett.
In difficult times, the main character could not refuse luxurious outfits, especially since she had to go to visit Rhett Butler in prison, and therefore a dress was made, and Scarlett managed to get a charming hat for it. All the outfits of the film's heroine faded over time, despite careful storage, they required restoration.
What to wear with a green dress
Wear it with something beige – Beige goes best with green. To be honest, beige can be safely worn with any color, especially those colors that are difficult to combine. The combination of beige and green dress is ideal if you want to look simple and not too flashy, such as if you are invited to a formal dinner. You can use several accessories in different shades of beige for your outfit so that your outfit does not look too subdued and bland.
Wear it with black - If you don't want to leave your comfort zone with black, but at the same time want to try wearing a green dress, then you're in luck! A green dress of any shade with black accessories will help create a chic and sophisticated look. This combination will look especially appropriate at parties and night events.
Wear it with a print – a green dress doesn’t have to be plain. If you want something more lively and fun, youthful and frivolous, choose a dress with a print in which the dominant color is green. You will get a fresh look, ideal for an event with a relaxed dress code and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. When you are wearing a dress with a green print, it is better to combine it with green accessories or choose them in a color that creates a beautiful contrast with the green.
Create a formal look - If you are planning to wear a green dress to an upcoming formal event or you just want to look festive and elegant, then combine your green dress with gold, silver, pink or red. Combining such colors, and even with a green dress, can be difficult; you can easily look like wrapping paper from a New Year's gift. The secret to a harmonious look in this case is a well-tailored and perfectly fitting elegant dress.

Julia Roberts' red dress
The dress of actress Julia Roberts, in which she appeared in the movie “Pretty Woman,” certainly deserves attention. It was created by costume designer Marilyn Vance.
The main character, a girl of easy virtue named Vivienne, transforms herself into a beautiful and chic woman with the help of this outfit; nothing else reminds her of her previous lifestyle. The red dress with bare shoulders was perfectly complemented by long white gloves.
Celebrity Choice – Green Dresses
Green clothes are chosen by brave, confident women. Moreover, the shade of the dress should be chosen very carefully, because this extravagant color does not suit everyone. However, celebrities, resorting to the help of professional stylists, prove that you can shine in green not only in everyday life, but also at social events, catwalks and red carpets.
Critics rightfully called the most elegant green outfit of the outgoing season a straight, strictly knee-length dress from Diane von Furstenberg, in which Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, appeared before fans during the summer Canada-American tour. A simple cut, a thin belt, a closed chest and shoulders, three-quarter sleeves, a loose silhouette and a cool, soft green shade of the dress - all this perfectly emphasizes the sense of style of a sophisticated lady. Stylists called Katherine the most impeccably dressed public figure.
Several representatives of the film industry showed up to the Golden Globe Awards ceremony last year in green outfits. Angelina Jolie chose a floor-length emerald dress from Atelier Versace. A straight pancake skirt with a small train, an emphatically thin waist, a closed blouse and long sleeves made the famous actress even more attractive and irresistible.
Catherine Zeta-Jones is also beautiful in a stylish floor-length, off-the-shoulder dress in dark green from Monique Lhuillier. Decorated with massive flounces, large folds, gracefully emphasizing the half-naked chest and bare shoulders, this dress can rightfully make any fair-skinned beauty the queen of the ball.
The famous Andrea Riseborough, an English actress, appeared at one of the fashion shows in a bright green iridescent dress from Dolce & Gabbana. It was not just a bright dress, it was made of shiny fabric. The cut is straight, slightly fitted, length – to the middle of the ankle. The dress, with its shine, focuses attention on itself in the best possible way, so Andrea used laconic classic black stilettos and a miniature black clutch as accessories.
This is not a complete list of lovers of fresh green color. Rising Indian actress Freida Pinto shone on the red carpet in a long emerald dress from Juan Carlos Obando, and model Rachel Nichols stood out among her colleagues in a short, tight sea green dress from Versace. Beauties who suit the color fresher than grass include Christina Aguilera, Rihanna, Kate Moss, Christina Applegate, Scarlett Johansson, Sarah Jessica Parker.

Dress from the movie "Scarface"

Kate Winslet's dress from the movie "Titanic"
Many viewers may recall that the actress who played the role of Rose in the film Titanic wore chic outfits, since she was a member of the nobility, one of these dresses was especially beautiful.
We're talking about the one where she almost ended up in cold water after falling off a ship. The outfit was created by designer Deborah Lynn Scott. The dress was made of red satin, black lace and tulle, it was decorated with numerous beads and beads, and it was quite heavy. The actress's look was complemented by long white gloves and exquisite precious jewelry.
Stylist advises: how to choose a wedding dress

When we think of a wedding dress, the first color that comes to mind is white. The ancestor of this tradition is considered to be the English royal family in the person of Queen Victoria. On February 10, 1840, she debuted in a snow-white outfit at her own wedding. And one more important fact: until the end of the 19th century, a wedding was an exclusively pragmatic event, and not a romantic one. People usually married those chosen by their parents. But Queen Victoria walked to the altar out of mutual love, which was a rather rare occurrence at that time. So, two hundred years ago, Victoria became the first wedding influencer of her kind. Since then, by the way, nothing has changed: royal weddings (and especially the Windsor family) still attract maximum attention.

In addition to royal celebrations, wedding fashion today is influenced by the political situation, global events, films, music, and role models. The Meghan Markle effect - how to ignore it. Having studied the latest collections, I roughly divided the trends into several categories.
DRESS-CAKE
Still from the movie "Sex and the City"
A textbook dress. This happened to the main character of this material, Victoria, and to Princess Diana, and to Carrie Bradshaw in the first Sex and the City film, and to any self-respecting Disney princess. The dress from the fairy tale about “happily ever after”, which symbolized a wedding celebration in the second half of the 20th century, is still popular. Remember the wedding dresses of Kate Middleton and her sister Pippa. By the way, Kim Kardashian married Kris Humphries the same year that Kate married William, and also in the “classics”. Photos from the Kardashian wedding only confirm that cake is different from cake. If Kate everything turned out like a fairy tale (which is what she probably wanted), then Kim’s dress is more likely a bestseller at any regional wedding salon in the CIS. Therefore, if you really want to be a princess, good taste still has not been canceled.
SOMETHING VERY SIMPLE
Meghan Markle
The first thing that comes to mind is, of course, Meghan Markle's wedding dress. The simple and laconic image of the Duchess of Sussex caused a huge number of controversial comments. Some wrote that it was elegant, fresh and modern. Others were indignant that it frankly did not reach the royal level, and accused it of lack of imagination. In fact, she killed two birds with one stone. Firstly, no matter what the armchair critics said, she looked amazing. Secondly, the dress turned out very much in Megan’s style. And I can assume that she deliberately chose a minimalist option so as not to associate her image with temporary trends. Admit it to yourself honestly: who can look at their graduation photos without pain? And why all? Yes, because for events that happen once in a lifetime, you want to choose the very best. So we choose, and years later we participate in some #10yearschallenge and... you know how we feel! To prevent this from happening, be like Megan. It is better to prefer a dress that can be safely passed on by inheritance, timeless: even after half a century, her and our granddaughters will admire it.

If in the case of Meghan Markle (I promise, this is the last mention of her) the dress does not have any obvious signs of current fashion, then there is also the opposite solution. Namely, to get married in something very fashionable. A fashionable wedding today is something in the boho or romantic style: getting married in an unusual location is becoming more and more popular, and, as you understand, in the forest or on the beach, a “dress-cake” will look a little strange. So the girls choose dresses for the ceremony that make them look more like forest nymphs than princesses. If you look at the collections from the latest Bridal Fashion Week right now, you will see how many informal and unconventional solutions there are.
I DON'T WANT TO BE LIKE EVERYONE else
Chiara Ferragni
If ten years ago we strived to be like everyone else, today the location for a wedding celebration must certainly be Instagram-friendly, and the bride’s dress is not the same as everyone else’s! And - individuality! Carrie Bradshaw got married in a business suit, and Sarah Jessica Parker herself walked down the aisle in a black dress. Beyoncé's sister, Solange Knowles, walked down the aisle in a jumpsuit. The heir to the Zara empire, Marta Ortega, changed three outfits during the wedding - from a dress to a black tuxedo. Italian blogger Chiara Ferragni (her wedding was discussed by fashionable Italy all last summer) also changed her outfits more than once during the holiday. By the way, the dresses carefully created for her by Maria Grazia Chiuri, in fact, could be called “cake-shaped”, but... in a new interpretation. Here you will find embroidered words from the songs of your future husband, an alternative color, and hidden lace shorts under the train. The latter, by the way, later appeared on all the catwalks, instantly turning into a hot trend.
Hence the question: is it so important to follow wedding fashion? There is no clear answer. Quite often, a wedding dress is something that we dream up for ourselves in childhood and then wait for the opportunity to close this gestalt. So listen to yourself and look for that dream dress! Better yet, do like all the celebrity brides: wear at least three outfits on this day.
Elizabeth Taylor's dress in the movie "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof"
The film was released in 1987, at that time few people had heard of the lingerie style of clothing. But the film was ahead of its time, and costume designer Edith Heed decided on a bold experiment, dressing actress Elizabeth Taylor in a light yellow dress made of silk and lace with straps, very similar to the slip. The heroine's look was completed with high-heeled shoes. Today, such dresses are at the peak of popularity.
Wedding dress from the film “Marie Antoinette”
The film was released in 2006, the main role of the French princess, and later the queen, was played by Kirsten Dunst. Viewers may recall that the princess loved a luxurious life and beautiful outfits.
Artists and designers tried to convey her love of chic by creating a magnificent rococo dress in which Marie Antoinette danced her first dance with her husband.
Wedding dresses in the movie "Sex and the City"
Wedding dresses in the movie Sex and the City became a topic of discussion for everyone: fans of the film and fans of designers, fashion journalists and those who had just been proposed to. The moment of shooting wedding dresses for Vogue magazine did not leave many people indifferent. Personally, I was interested in the collections from which the dresses were chosen and, in fact, who chose them and how.
Usually, stylist and designer Patricia Field Sex and the City , but this time she was just an observer. The filmmakers asked Anna Wintour herself to make the Vogue shoot feel like a real magazine shoot. As a result, those few minutes with stunning dresses were completely created by a team of American Vogue professionals: production editor Andre Leon Talley , legendary photographer Patrick Demarchelier , who took all the photographs included in the collector's editions and albums, fashion editor Lawren Howell , freelance editor Plum Sykes , and also the best, recognized and famous fashion photo retoucher Pascal Dangin , who is also a creative consultant for Vogue magazine. All these people not only chose dresses, accessories and came up with images, but also starred in the film as themselves . The first dress in which Carrie appears in the frame was a dress from the Vera Wang wedding collection for the fall 2007 season .
The Carolina Herrera spring 2008 dress turned out to be no less chic . Looks amazing when paired with a head accessory.
the Christian Lacroix haute-couture collection was conceived by the designer as something relaxed and even hooligan, but the Vogue team was able to make something sophisticated out of it.
delicate version of the spring 2008 season turned Carrie into a girl.
crazy haute-couture option for Christian Dior for the fall 2007 season is not a wedding outfit at all. It is more suitable for a lady of advanced years.
As always, an impeccable Oscar de la Renta dress (spring 2008 collection) . Embroidered with beads and patterns, it looks incredibly chic.
At the end of the shoot for Vogue, everyone saw the Vivienne Westwood dress (fall 2007 collection) , in which Carrie never got married. Carrie's pretentious dress still looked great, despite the ridiculous, in my opinion, bird on the head.
I think everyone agrees that the perfect wedding should include the perfect dress !
Kristen Stewart's wedding dress from The Twilight Saga. Dawn"
Bela's wedding dress, played by actress Kristen Stewart, made her one of the most romantic, beautiful and elegant brides in the history of cinema. The outfit was created by American designer Carolina Herrera.
The dress looked very modest, but had a train and a cutout at the back, which was draped with lace. After the film was released, copies of the dress literally flooded numerous wedding salons and online stores.
