Iconic Photography: The White Dress

*melissah:iconmelissah: reports, January 14
Iconic Photography: The White Dress







Theres just something about a woman in a white dress.

Let's face it, this is just the tip of the iceberd. The white dress is a symbol, seen over and
over again in art, everywhere.

Is it for purity? Or the whimsical, fairy tale feeling it evokes? Its hard to pinpoint.

As a woman, there is also something about the way you feel wearing that white dress. Its being young in the summer, or simply feeling beautiful.

I have listed more "famous" shots featuring white dresses at the bottom of this article. In the meantime, most of these selections are unknown and do not have hundreds of favorites, so please give them praise.


The selected photos are of many different styles and intent, but the iconic white dress is seen throughout. Watch as it is used in many different ways, from establishing mood to the simplicity of having a white dress in a photo shoot.

On another note, though there are many, i have not included photomanipulations in this article.





My goal is to show you beautiful work from many unknown deviants.

By the end of this article you will be amazed that most of these selections have 2 or 3 comments only. You will also be saying:

"Wow...theres just something about that white dress..."
















Famous White Dress Shots



Last but not least, here is a selection of a few better known deviants. Obviously they have
no problem being viewed, but thats not the point. They embody the theme just as well.

On a further note, Kevissimo's peice, which i first saw a few years back when i first joined DA, is my personal
inspiration for compiling and putting together "Iconic Photography: The White Dress." I think as a photographer, this image has stayed with me long after the initial viewing.
