Is there an English term for a trunk or drawer full of things a girl's collected in preparation for her marriage? I thought I knew one, but it turns out to be Australian in origin.
Anyone?

Is "hope chest" the term you're looking for?

Yes. The Australian term is "glory box" which sounds far too suggestive to me.
Thank you!
