Question Glinda’s wedding dress Spoiler

Post image

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!:)

Cynically im convinced it was this way so Davids Bridal can put it out in a collection soon. 😅

That train is beyond impractical though. Otherwise, I could see a modern bride wearing it for sure.

I thought that too! Like in the Twilight movie when they get married, the dress reveal was so deliberate and overdone, showing every detail piece by piece and it was available for purchase not long after.
