Shrew & Scold's Bridal Wear was a shop for wedding attire in Diagon Alley.[1]
It shared the same building with Mandrake Mufflers, Grandma Gramercy's Grandiloquent Gramophones, and Gaberlunzie Garments.[2]
Etymology[]
"Shrew"[3] and "Scold"[4] are both old terms for an aggressive and argumentative woman, especially one's wife; the name of the shop is likely a pun based on this.
