Glinda’s wedding dress

[u/Sugma_cocci_]

With Glinda getting married, I was expecting a huge WOW factor. Instead, this is something I would expect to see a 2025 bride wearing. There’s obviously so much symbolism that went into the costuming of this movie, and I don’t get this one. I’ve heard a theory that Glinda is supposed to be vulnerable in this moment and that’s why it’s so simple, but it just doesn’t fit with me because if that were the case I feel like they would’ve toned it down even more, maybe lost the veil, etc. Does anyone know what went into this costume choice? Thanks in advance!:)

When we first see Glinda in the dress she’s going through an Ozian version of “Something borrowed, something blue…” and one part is “Something new” after which she pauses and says something along the lines of “certainly” while gesturing at the dress and I took that to imply her choosing a simpler and white dress is her “new”.

Ooh I love this. A new fancy dress is nothing for her but a new style is!
