1. Princess Diana
The most famous wedding dress of the 20th century belongs to Diana Spencer. On June 29, 1981, Lady Di married Charles, Prince of Wales. Diana's wedding dress looked more like a cake with whipped cream than a wedding dress, but despite this, it attracted the attention of millions of people. It contained the best materials and jewelry: silk taffeta, a diamond belt, pearls, lace, rhinestones, and an eight-meter train. Looking at this fabulously expensive splendor, no one would dare to reproach the future princess for skimping on her outfit or not living up to her status.
The creators of the dress were the spouses David and Elizabeth Emanuel, who were not particularly popular before the wedding of Diana Spencer. Everyone had a question: why did a girl who could turn to any designer choose an unknown pair of couturiers? As it turned out later, Lady Di ordered a blouse from them for one of the photo shoots, and the girl liked the product so much that she, without hesitation, turned to British designers when preparations for the wedding began.
During the fitting, it was decided to create a copy of the dress in case something happened to the main version. However, it was not useful and was later sold for 100 thousand euros at auction.
2. Kate Middleton
Exactly 30 years later, the eldest son of Charles and Lady Diana, William, married his beloved Kate Middleton. The wedding ceremony was in no way inferior in scope and splendor to the wedding of William’s parents. But unlike Diana, who entrusted the creation of her wedding dress to little-known designers, the suits for the future Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were created at the leading British fashion house - Alexander McQueen.
Realizing full well that Kate Middleton's outfit should become an example of wedding fashion, the creative director of the fashion house, Sarah Burton, took on the design and sewing of the dress herself, taking on 10 people as her assistants. The craftsmen worked day and night. They had to change needles every three hours and wash their hands every 30 minutes. Such precautions were necessary to ensure that the finished ivory outfit did not have a single flaw and looked impeccable. However, the dress made of silk and lace turned out just like that - light, delicate, airy and elegant. The highlight of the outfit were the symbols of the royal family reflected on its guipure part - the English rose, the Irish shamrock, the Welsh daffodil and the Scottish thistle.
3. Grace Kelly
After the wedding of William and Kate, many noticed that the Duchess’s outfit was very reminiscent of the dress of Grace Kelly, the famous American actress and Princess of Monaco. It also consisted of silk and ivory lace and was graceful and touching.
The wedding dress was created by Helen Rose, a costume designer at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, who literally a month before the wedding of Grace and Prince Rainier received an Oscar for best costume design.
To make the bride look impeccable, the prince bought snow-white fabric for the dress from one of the country's museums. The rarity was used not only to sew the wedding dress itself, but also to create Grace’s headdress, prayer book and shoes, which were decorated with her initials. Elegant accessories added completeness and nobility to the look, without distracting from the look of the natural beauty of Grace Kelly.
4. Kate Moss
Perhaps Kate Moss's dress would not have become so famous if it were not for the scandal associated with its designer, John Galliano. Shortly before the model's wedding to The Kills guitarist Jamie Hince, he was fired from his post as creative director of the Christian Dior fashion house. The reason for the dismissal was anti-Semitic statements that Galliano allowed himself while heavily intoxicated.
Despite this scandalous situation, Kate still asked her close friend to create the perfect wedding dress for her. This order became a kind of salvation for John, since at that time Moss was the most famous model of our time.
Galliano later said in interviews that Kate’s outfit became symbolic for him. “I put glitter on the dress in the shape of Phoenix feathers. And, as you know, he is always reborn from the ashes...” In addition to sparkles, the wedding dress was decorated with rhinestones and frills. The harmonious combination of all elements allowed the garment to become a true embodiment of vintage chic. Galliano himself admitted that he created it in the best traditions of the era of decadence.
5. Angelina Jolie
The famous actress’s dress was recognized not only as one of the most beautiful in recent decades, but also the most original, because in addition to the designers, Angelina’s children also worked on it.
The bride wore a silk dress from the famous Atelier Versace tailor Luigi Masia. The designer’s choice was obvious, since at that time he had a huge number of outfits created for Jolie. After the wedding dress was ready, the actresses applied designs created by Pax, Maddox, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne and Knox Jolly-Pitt to the hem of the dress and veil. So Angelina’s wedding dress became a canvas for her children’s self-expression. Many fans were initially skeptical about this “design move,” but later admitted that animals, inscriptions, airplanes, scary monsters and other images became a real decoration of the dress and turned it into a family heirloom.
6. Sarah Jessica Parker
Sarah Jessica Parker got married twice in her life: once in real life, and the second time in the movie Sex and the City. Despite the fact that one wedding was fictitious, both dresses went down in history as the most original ones in the last 20 years.
For her real wedding with actor Matthew Broderick, Sarah chose a black (!) wedding dress. It was she who became the trendsetter of a new fashion and, by her example, proved that a wedding dress does not have to be white. Despite all the prejudices, black did not become the color of mourning and the imminent end of family life. On the contrary, he brought Parker and Broderick happiness and good luck, as evidenced by their 20 years of marriage.
However, the actress later admitted that choosing a black outfit was her main fashion failure, and if she had gotten married again, she would have worn an ivory dress similar to the one she wore when she got married in the movie Sex and the City. . Then Vivienne Westwood acted as the designer of the outfit, but the wedding, according to the plans of the scriptwriters and directors, never took place.
