Holly Valance wedding dress

Yes, I read the Fail sometimes every day Blush

I love it, it's something different and she looks amazing in it. I love the 100 foot long veil too, fab.

And her usually-odd-looking fiance looks great too.

I have a feeling this might be controversial one though so share your thoughts folks! Wink

She looks incredibly uncomfortable in the first pic. Like she's holding in a fart or something

Lauren Bush's dress is a vision of perfection - every inch is totally divine and suits her perfectly. Love that she wore Little House on the Prairie boots Grin.

Holly Valance - jaw-dropping which is no doubt what she intended, but something more fitted and classic would have shown off her figure better - still could have had texture with maybe heavy lace or some sort of 3d fabric effect.

I agree, the veil doesn't match the dress.

I wonder what she see's in the odd looking billionaire? I wonder...

Dress is fucking awful, OTT and proof that money can't buy style. But it can buy you a pretty vacuous wife

LOVE that Lauren dress. Wowzers Batman.

How long til we all get told off for being beastly and talking about wedding dresses in derogatory terms?

LOL WinklyFriedChicken, you took the words right out of my mouth!

I prefer the dress that the lady who married one of The Kings of Leon wore.

Bunny, the person's 'missing' leg is actually just placed tightly next to the visible leg. Look at her heel and you'll see the other.

As for Holly's dress, I want to like it because anything that isn't that usual strapless tube/strapless meringue is refreshing. For my taste, it's too many styles mixed together. The main thing is, of course, that Holly and her husband look really happy.

Not for me I'm afraid.

It looks like dirty net curtains.

StellaAndFries · 01/10/2012 18:40

I loved HV's veil but not the dress, LL looked absolutely beautiful, everything just works together and looks amazing.

sugarice · 01/10/2012 18:49

There was a Bride being escorted by Duchess Cambridge's Dad at the weekend who wore the most gorgeous dress ever, it was so stunning!!

StellaAndFries · 01/10/2012 18:56

That is a lovely dress, I thought the shoes let it down a bit though.

YoullLaughAboutItOneDay · 01/10/2012 18:58

HV might have shaved off a couple of years, but I don't think it can be many. I remember when she joined the cast of Neighbours...

sugarice · 01/10/2012 18:59

Oh yes the shoes were a bit boring, standard slim platform;yuk!

HyvaPaiva · 01/10/2012 19:01

Sugarice, I totally agree that the bridal gown of the Middletons' friend was the most beautiful creation!

BunnyLebowski · 01/10/2012 19:02

Posho dress nice but would look infinitely better on someone with actual curves.

And those shoes are heinous.

Doowrah · 01/10/2012 19:06

Bloomin awful frock and his DJ is no better...but they look happy.

follyfoot · 01/10/2012 19:08

The skirt looks the aftermath of a goose hitting an airplane engine

This, and then dangling in a dirty puddle

Holly Valance is 29? Like Caprice is 37, methinks.

No, that would be about right. She's about that much younger than me and always has been.

SuperB0F · 01/10/2012 19:22

I remember that awful Kiss Kiss video playing on MTV in my old house though, which makes it pre-2000. Even if she had been only 18, surely that puts her at 30+?

SuperB0F · 01/10/2012 19:23

Ach, maybe I'm wrong. Oh well, I will just have to direct ny inner bitch elsewhere...

PuffPants · 01/10/2012 19:28

No, I think Kiss was a few years later - maybe 2002? I remember it playing on the radio just after I'd got my first car Smile

PuffPants · 01/10/2012 19:30

Oh and the dress is horrible.

But at least she didn't go strapless though.

Anyone see Anne Hathaway's wedding dress over the weekend? Bizarre head-dress thing - someone commented she looked like she'd had brain surgery and had had her head bandaged.

HmmThinkingAboutIt · 01/10/2012 19:38

She was about the same age as a male friend of mine who is now 30.

LadyMargolotta · 01/10/2012 19:46

Her single Kiss Kiss was about ten years ago. It was a cover of the song which had been realised about two years before by a turkish singer.
