According to historians, the concept of donning a special garment for the purposes of marriage is thought to have originated in Chinese fable, where a princess was dressed in a phoenix dress and crown which would bring her luck and fortitude in the marriage. In Korea and Japan, silk wedding robes changed in style according to the ruling dynasty and season but normally adhered to bright colors, designed to emulate royalty. Though the concept of marriage union stems back to the ancient civilizations of Sumer, Babylon, and Assyria, the idea of weddings as a romantic notion is much more recent. Through analysis of paintings made from Assyrian artifacts (including British painter Edwin Long’s 1875 interpretation), women would dress in draped garments of white or cream to be bid on in a market-like environment, with the less desirable women being allocated to “commoners”. "When Queen Victoria wore a white gown to be married in 1840, the notion of a white wedding dress became the standard of the Western world" Wedding dresses in the 1940s and 1950s
