The bride must glitter in the light of sun. A dress with graceful sleeves or train in the past was taken as a representation of high class whereas the other classes were bound by their own means to wear ordinary colors. They usually wore dress for wedding prepared in factory because costs were not in their capacity to be afforded. There were no wedding dress suppliers at that time and if there were some, poor families were not able to get access to the same.
