Movie Inspiration: Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
| By WeddingAces ~ August 14th, 2009 ~ Wedding Planning | 4 Comments |
I love old movies and drew a lot of inspiration from them for my own wedding. One of my favorites is “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.” It is chock full of awesome color, couture, and imagery. Plus, Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe are in it and are their sassy, brassy selves.
In the movie, there is a wedding scene (go here to see it and read more about it) that provided the spark for me to create a “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” inspired wedding collage.

Great design board! The dress in the centre is simply gorgeous. I agree with you that old movie can be a rich source of inspiration.
