The beautiful Linda Christian married the dashingly dishy Tyrone Power (my first crush) in Rome Italy in January 1949.  Wearing a beautifully fitting gold damask gown made of fifty yards of satin, seventy yards of lace and two thousand pearls (I so wish these images were in colour, it sounds divine), by Madame Fontana, one of Italy’s top designers; and an exquisite juliet cap veil, in a very traditional catholic ceremony – despite the groom’s previous marriage.
