I came across an original copy of this charming 1920s Wrigley’s ad (for sale here on Amazon) and I have to say, it is pretty adorable….

Illustrated ad from a 1925 issue of Good Housekeeping, for Stevens Spreads “Romance” collection of bedspreads. Features a bride in her vintage juliet / cap veil, mid-length wedding dress and flower accessories galore.
The soft luster of white satin is exquisitely set off by pearl trimming in this Lucile-Paris wedding gown. Lucile suggests a striking innovation in bridal hosiery- Fanchon, faintest, most delicate flesh-pink, rather than white. Perhaps the most unusual of the new hosiery shades sent from Paris by Lucile is Fleur de Lis, the creamy ivory …
