Sorry, The Rock’s wife’s dress is two a penny at the moment. Ellie Goulding looked beautiful.

If you don't believe that the person you are marrying is the love of your life then that would be a bit odd.

Good to to see something different from the strapless, sleeveless versions that have been around for years. Don't know the material and this is my only criticism, it may have been warm for this time of year. A 3/4 sleeve may have lightened it. But, the girl went for what she wanted and didn't follow the herd. Good on her.

Just had a look at Hello and all I can say is that if I had been bridesmaid I would have quit rather than wear those dresses.

What were they thinking???
They're genuinely the most hideous and unflattering dresses I've ever seen.
They're so I'll fitting it looks like they've been thrown into a lake and are still drenched.
Someone please post a picture.

And for the wedding dress it would look like on someone else but not her.

There really are very few people who can carry off a round neckline.

ShirleyPhallus · 03/09/2019 12:18

She got changed in the evening, here is a link to her dress

I think it’s beautiful. MM’s Stella McCartney dress was absolutely gorgeous too

Whatsitlike · 03/09/2019 12:49

I quite liked the dress, thought it looked a little big, but liked the overall design, once I got over the lips.....

But then I though Princess Annes wedding dress to Cpt. Mark Philips was very nice.

My own dress when I look back on it was quite a horror!

AnneKipanki · 03/09/2019 13:21

Ah well...what would it be like if we could all have 4 wedding dresses ! ( without 4 weddings )

Haworthia · 03/09/2019 13:37

Seems a bit too studied/contrived to follow aristocratic bridal trends

Yes! That’s exactly it.

GlitchyWitch · 03/09/2019 13:56

Ghastly.

Also, either Katy Perry is pregnant or she was having some sort of “Who can find the most unflattering outfit” competition with someone.

OpheliaTodd · 03/09/2019 13:59

Oh and it won’t last. Celeb marriages rarely do.

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 03/09/2019 14:02

Blimey, how many dresses did she have?

She must have spent hours changing and touching up hair and make up. Waste of time.

EdWinchester · 03/09/2019 14:02

Her 2nd and 3rd dresses were better. 4th was a horror.

And why are brides wearing numerous dresses nowadays? It's vulgar.

Haworthia · 03/09/2019 15:16

Lady Gabriella Windsor also had four wedding dresses recently. It seems to be a standard thing in society circles to have two dresses (something prim and proper for the church, something prettier for the party) but four really is pushing it. All that money on couture that’ll be worn for a couple of hours. What a waste.

RedForShort · 03/09/2019 15:30

What could the four be for though? Two I get as there's two parts effectively - church and reception (don't get the need). But four!!?

I might manage three if I try:

Church
Dinner
Dancing

Is there one for leaving too!!!?

Haworthia · 03/09/2019 15:42

I was wondering the same thing, Red, and can only assume that number four is the “going away outfit” 🤷‍♀️

Mammyloveswine · 03/09/2019 15:47

Love the beaded gown she wore for the evening so and the Stella McCartney gown! Stunning both of them!

TinklyLittleLaugh · 03/09/2019 15:51

People are so greedy nowadays. What is the point of being a virtue signalling vegan then consuming so very very much to stroke your own ego? No one needs four wedding dresses.

Jesaminecollins · 03/09/2019 16:28

I had two dresses because my main dress was just too big to dance in.

ShirleyPhallus · 03/09/2019 16:29

No one needs four wedding dresses.

The film wouldn’t have been so great if it was just “a funeral”

ElloBrian · 03/09/2019 17:03

I think what the Mail calls dress three is actually dress two with a beaded evening bolero thing and a headband added to it.

I prefer either or the other two to the first one. And actually I think three (ie four in the Mail) might be my favourite.

MrsPellegrinoPetrichor · 03/09/2019 18:08

So why not just get a dress that will see you through the day into the evening?

Sparklingbrook · 03/09/2019 20:20

It's her wedding day. She can have as many dresses as she wants, she's paying for them. Grin

StarlingsInSummer · 03/09/2019 20:28

Love the little buttons on the sleeves, hate the neckline - I’m not a fan of frills and bows and Peter Pan collars round necks.

StarlingsInSummer · 03/09/2019 20:31

I like that beaded jacket too.
