Deborah Turbeville (b.1938)
Wedding Dresses
Unpublished photograph for Vanity Fair
1984
This unpublished photograph provides a striking contrast to conventional images of wedding fashions, which depict happy brides in luxurious surroundings. The derelict interior creates a haunting atmosphere. As is typical of Turbeville’s work, the stiffly posed models appear to be unaware of one another, fragile and detached.
