Bridesmaids originally dressed alike to confuse vengeful spirits from harming the bride.
伴娘们穿一样的裙子是为了让恶灵分不清谁是新娘,无从加害
There is a theory that the tradition of bridesmaids dressing alike dates back to ancient Rome, the bride considered to be prime bait for vengeful spirits. So, all the women dressed alike to confuse the spirits from interrupting the bride and groom's nuptials.
有一种理论认为,伴娘穿着相似的习俗起源于古罗马时期,当时认为新娘是恶灵的主要目标。所以,所有的女性都穿着相似的裙子,让恶灵分不清谁是新娘,这样婚礼才不会受干扰。
Another theory, however, dates back to the Victorian era. Dr. Liz Gloyn, a lecturer in Royal Holloway at the University of London, told The Independent that the tradition stemmed from fear of competition.
另一种理论认为,伴娘裙的习俗起源于维多利亚时期。伦敦大学皇家霍洛威学院的讲师丽兹·格洛因博士告诉《独立报》说,该传统源于对竞争的恐惧。
"It is my belief that by regulating the bridesmaids formally into exactly the same garments, there was no room for any of them to try and outdo each other, let alone the bride, through the use of grander fabric, grander jewelry," Dr. Gloyn said.
格洛因博士说:“我认为,通过规定伴娘穿一样的衣服,伴娘就没机会比拼谁穿得更美,新娘可以不用担心被伴娘盖过风头,可以穿面料更高级的衣服,戴更奢华的珠宝。”
