Wedding Dress Rewind – Favourite Celebrity Looks

In honour of the V&A’s upcoming exhibition of wedding dresses from 1775-2014, featuring some of the most famous dresses in history, I decided to pick my favourite celebrity wedding dress looks.

Gwen Stefani
Designer: John Galliano
Year: 2002

This pink dip-dyed Dior gown is my all-time favourite. It portrayed Stefani’s personality perfectly – punk princess.

Portia de Rossi
Designer: Zac Posen
Year: 2008

The tux-inspired top and ethereal tulle skirt was a perfect marriage of masculine and feminine looks for the beautiful Portia on her wedding day to Ellen DeGeneres.

Ivanka Trump
Designer: Vera Wang
Year: 2009

This stunning gown was a modern take on Grace Kelly’s infamous wedding dress, creating a romantic, royal look for Ivanka.

Katie Holmes
Designer: Armani
Year: 2006

Even though we weren’t huge fans of this strange-under-the-surface marriage, and it didn’t end happily ever after, this dress was perfect on Katie. It was just right for the Italian venue, and Katie’s look was soft and romantic.

Blair Waldorf from Gossip Girl, aka Leighton Meester
Designer 1: Vera Wang Designer 2: Elie Saab
Year: 2012, 2012

I’ve chosen both of the Gossip Girl character’s wedding gowns, as they were both so different and both so darn gorgeous! The Vera Wang gown featured for Blair’s wedding to Price Louis was a regal, princessy ballgown, ideal for the long cathedral aisle and the baroque stylings of the Waldorf Astoria. The second gown, for Blair’s last-minute Central Park marriage to her true love, Chuck, an elegant, embellished Elie Saab showed her grown-up style and sparkled in the natural light.

Kelly Clarkson
Designer: Temperley London
Year: 2013

The most recent of my picks, Kelly’s Temperley dress was ideal for her rustic, country-styled wedding.
