Marian F. Schold wore this dress for her marriage to Robert L. Bush on June 29, 1946. Marion was born on February 28, 1924 in Muskegon, Michigan to Esther and Helgie Schold, who had emigrated from Sweden in 1906 and worked in a factory. Robert Bush was born on May 10, 1923 also in Muskegon to Jacob and Elizabeth Bush. Jacob, the son of a farmer, was a laborer who worked as a railroad motorman, painter, and machinist throughout his lifetime. Robert was a staff sergeant in the 474th Fighter Group, 9th Air Force during WWII. He was given a parachute that was damaged when someone broke into their supply room in France, as it was deemed no longer usable. He carried it in his footlocker throughout France, Germany and Belgium until his return to Michigan in December of 1945. He intended to have a wedding dress made from it for his bride-to-be. The parachute was spread out in Marion's backyard and they cut out all the panels with writing on them. The rest they gave to a dressmaker who made the gown for Marion as a wedding present. Marian later cut off the train in order to use the dress as a formal for dances. Living on $90 a month from the GI Bill of Rights didn't provide any money to buy formal dresses. Marion and Robert lived in Muskegon after their marriage until Robert began studies that fall at The University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. "After celebrating 53 years of marriage, Marian died on November 8, 1999. It is with a great deal of joy that I donate this wedding dress to the Historic Costume & Textiles Collection at OSU" Robert L. Bush, October 26, 2000

Elizabeth Green and Edwin Morgan were married on February 16, 1946. Edwin Morgan was a paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne division during WWII. His unit moved through Germany, setting fires in attempt to destroy all supplies and equipment. They found an airplane hangar on fire. Inside the hangar was a plane without a propeller. Edwin took two German parachutes from inside the burning hangar. The parachutes were imprinted with a manufacturer's label that included the Luftwaffe insignia, manufacture date, and other info. At the end of the war, family finances were limited, fabrics were short in supply and wedding gowns were expensive. John Parva, a tailor, made the dress out of the parachute for $18.00. He sewed the German label into the train of the dress.

This dress was first worn by Nelly Ann Ricci in 1943, and later by her daughter Ann Marie Salimbene in 1987 without alteration. Nelly Ann Ricci wore the dress upon her marriage to Lt. Col. Rocco Carmelo Salimbene on September 18, 1943 in Camp Shelby, Mississippi where he had recently been stationed. Nelly was born on October 12, 1919 in Columbus, Ohio to Mary and Tullio Ricci. Mary Ricci was born in Ohio, and Tullio had emigrated to the U.S. from Italy. While he originally worked as a car repairman for a railroad, he eventually opened his own men's tailoring business. Later in his career, he worked as a tailor at The Union department store in Columbus. Rocco Salimbene was born on February 22, 1913 in West Virginia to Mary La Neve and Joseph Salimbene, who had immigrated in 1903 and worked as a machinist. Rocco is an Ohio State University alumni who joined the Army in July, 1940 and was released in January, 1947. After the war Rocco was a mechanical engineer. It is unusual to find a dress with so much fabric in it during WWII. Order L-85, first announced in 1943, dictated that only one and three-fourths yards of fabric be used per dress. However, the wedding dress industry lobbied for an exemption, arguing that the white wedding tradition was one of the things the soldiers were fighting for and it was important to the overall morale of American citizens. Rocco and Nellie's daughter, Ann Marie Salimbene, would wear her mother's dress unaltered when she married on December 5, 1987. Her headpiece and veil, however, were something new
