As far as I know, Titanic was not called "the ship of dreams" until 1990, when Don Lynch used the term as a chapter heading in Titanic: An Illustrated History.
Most of the hype surrounding the ship appeared after the sinking. Much of it came from writers who didn't see Titanic in the context of her time. She wasn't the only posh floating hotel.
