bridal wear
bridal (sense 1 "of or pertaining to a bride") + wear (noun sense 1 "clothing") = bridal wear ("clothing worn by a bride") = sum of parts. Thryduulf 21:12, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Weak keep. Bridal wear can also mean lingerie but this is different from the intended meaning. Maybe needs another definition. Search google images for a few examples. (Purely for research purposes, of course).--Dmol 22:19, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * PS, There are also regional and cultural differences in what the term means, even within the same country. We might think of bridal wear as white flowing silk, but to someone else it is bright coloured saris or a kimino.--Dmol 09:08, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It could also be the erosion that happens as a result of wedding day stress ;) --EncycloPetey 14:58, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

But that definition of wear: says "in combination". Why isn't it bridalwear? DAVilla 05:30, 26 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I think that most sum of parts combinations can be melded in a few ways: x y, x-y, xy. This does not overcome the SOP issue.  -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 05:44, 26 March 2008 (UTC)


 * If this is to go, then wedding cake, wedding dress and wedding ring are also in danger zone? Hekaheka 09:49, 30 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I have now added bridalwear, since it is very commonly a single word. We aren't going to call a single word "sum of parts"! I have no particular comment on this form, though. Equinox ◑ 21:38, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
