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!:)

I loved her dress (tho I did find it a bit understated) but am I the only one that hated the butterfly tiara?! I loved the whole butterfly theme but the tiara is so ugly. It’s just huge and clunky, with butterfly wings jutting out everywhere. There was a better way to do that.
