Socialites and movie and music stars have long taught us that weddings in famous families are always celebrated on a special scale, and bridesmaid dresses are a completely separate issue. When you have millions of dollars at your disposal, you will not wear something mediocre on this important day. A star will always want not only to look brilliant, but also to make herself known to the whole world from the pages of the most fashionable magazines or popular newspapers.

Sometimes celebrities manage to pleasantly surprise everyone around, but it also happens that their outfits cause only bewilderment. In any case, their weddings always fall into the spotlight. Here is an example of 20 wedding dresses of Western stars who abandoned the usual white dress in favor of something more original.

20. Olivia Palermo wore shorts

At first glance, this outfit will seem quite normal to you, but in fact it is not. Let's start with the fact that the top of Olivia's costume looks like a regular long-sleeved blouse, which can only be worn in the office or on a walk. But that's not the strangest thing either. Under the puffy skirt with a long slit on the star, ordinary white shorts were hidden! Definitely, such an outfit is not often seen on a beauty going down the aisle.

19. Angelina Jolie introduced all her children to the design of the dress.

If you remember, in 2014, Angelina Jolie wore a white dress covered with drawings of her children to her wedding to Brad Pitt. Someone found this outfit very touching, and someone criticized and called it lurid. The dress was designed by Versace designer Luigi Massi. The designs covered the entire back of the bride's skirt and veil. It was definitely a unique idea, and the opinion of others for the actress was not at all important, because the most important thing for her is her family.

18. Marilyn Monroe wore a dark dress.

Choosing an unusual or even unique dress is not a new trend. Actresses and other celebrities tried to stand out in a special way many years ago. Even Marilyn Monroe dressed up for her wedding in a very unconventional way, although in those years originality was not valued as highly as it is now. Marrying baseball player Joe DiMaggio (Joe DiMaggio), the actress wore a chocolate-colored sheath dress and a jacket with a fur frill. It was quite a classic outfit, but was it suitable for a wedding?

17. Gwen Stefani chose pink

Gwen is definitely one of those stars who never ceases to amaze us with her fashionable looks. However, no one expected that she would also wear something unusual for her wedding. In 2002, the celebrity married Gavin Rossdale (Gavin Rossdale), and her silk dress for this special day was created by fashion designer John Galliano (John Galliano) from the house of Christian Dior. Agree, Stephanie always manages to maintain a balance between femininity and rock star insolence, and this pink dress is evidence of this. By the way, she wore the original dress 2 times - at the wedding and then at the ceremony of strengthening marital ties in the same year.

16. Yoko Ono chose an outfit in the style of mods

At her wedding to John Lennon in 1969, Yoko Ono looked like she was going to a tennis tournament rather than down the aisle. She has definitely never been a mediocre girl, so her wedding attire hardly shocked anyone. It would be more surprising if she chose a traditional puffy white dress with a veil and lace. Her extravagant costume looked absolutely in the spirit of the British mod subculture popular in those years and consisted of sneakers, high socks, a short dress, a felt hat and huge sunglasses.

15. Pink dress Jessica Biel (Jessica Biel)

Pink is clearly popular among Western stars, and Jessica Biel has become another celebrity to order a wedding dress in this color. “I wanted the dress to look very romantic and feminine, and in a style that I rarely wear. I've never been crazy about all-white wedding dresses," Beal admitted. The Italian fashion designer Giambattista Valli worked on the creation of the original outfit, in one of whose past collections Jessica noticed chic dresses in fuchsia and shades of pink. As the actress recalls, she completely trusted the famous designer, and in the end everything turned out better than she could have imagined.

14. Emma Thompson (Emma Thompson) clearly stood out

This is definitely not the dress that most modern brides will choose. When this British actress married Kenneth Branagh in 1989, she decided to add some color to her dress for fun. You may think that the outfit came out too theatrical, but in the 80s it was even fashionable. About 30 years ago, such a model looked very stylish and modern.

13. Solange Knowles wore a jumpsuit

Solange Knowles is definitely a fashion connoisseur, and it is very evident in the clothes she wears, but she once made it to the list of the most inappropriate wedding dresses in the world of show business.

Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick have been together for 21 years. When the couple decided to legalize their relationship in 1997, the actress did not look for the most magnificent white outfit with a veil, but went to her favorite store and bought a black dress that suited her. Yes, yes, it was not even a personal order from the famous fashion designer, because it just hung on a hanger among other evening dresses. Then it seemed to Sarah that it would be an inconspicuous classic, but in the end her dress went down in the history of Hollywood weddings with its very unusual color for such a celebration. However, Sarah later expressed regret about her choice, although she did not want to spend a lot of time looking for something completely unique. “I just went to the store that I loved and took what they had hanging there,” Parker admitted.

9. Elizabeth Taylor never followed tradition.

Elizabeth Taylor got married 8 times, so it is not surprising that traditional outfits at some point just got bored with this bright woman. When Taylor married Richard Burton for the first time, she wore a completely conservative dress, and the couple lasted in this marriage for 10 years. However, 16 months after the divorce, they again decided to tie the knot. However, this time the celebration took place in Botswana, and the bride's dress was created by fashion designer Gina Fratini (Gina Fratini), and it looked more like a multi-colored hippie outfit, decorated with feathers.

The dress was short and more like a suit for going out with girlfriends for brunch than for a wedding. As the actress herself later recalled, this outfit brought her back to life and reminded her of her youth.

6. Dita Von Teese went for a rich purple

This is definitely difficult to call a wedding dress. Lavender color is quite pleasant in itself, but most often bridesmaids come in such outfits, and not the heroes of the occasion themselves. Sofia Coppola got married in a castle owned by her father, the legendary director Francis Ford Coppola. Perhaps Sophia wanted something unusual simply because it was already her second wedding.

We decided to remember whose wedding dresses have already gone down in history. The famous dress of Kate Middleton, Lady Dee's wedding "nightmare", Victoria Swarovski's 46-kilogram outfit and other no less interesting wedding images are in front of you.

Princess Diana

The most famous wedding dress of the last century is kept in the residence of the British kings and belongs to Diana Spencer, who on July 29, 1981 married Charles, Prince of Wales, and became the most talked about person in the world. It is not particularly beautiful and looks more like a meringue cake than a princess dress, but, nevertheless, on that day, the eyes of millions of people were riveted to it.

Silk taffeta, lace, rhinestones, ten thousand pearls, a diamond belt and an eight-meter train - Diana's dress brought together the best materials and jewelry, as befits the occasion. Its author was the then unknown designers David and Elizabeth Emanuel, whom the future princess called personally after they made a blouse for one of her photo shoots. At the fitting, it was decided to sew an identical outfit “in reserve” in case something happened to the main option. However, a copy of the dress was never needed and was subsequently sold at auction for a fabulous sum of 100,000 euros.

The process of creating a "royal" toilet was even devoted to the book "Dress for Diana", written by designers Emanuel after the death of the princess, in 2006. “As soon as we received an order to make an outfit, I began to study all the books describing the weddings of monarchs,” Elizabeth wrote in the book. - The dress was supposed to go down in history and at the same time like Diana. We knew that the ceremony would take place in St. Paul's Cathedral and expected that the train would fill the aisle and look impressive and majestic. The design didn’t take long, unlike the tailoring itself, which seemed to take forever because Miss Spencer was constantly losing weight…”

Kate Middleton

Exactly 30 years later, the marriage of the eldest son of Prince Charles and Lady Diana, William, took place, which in scope and splendor was in no way inferior to the loudest wedding of the 20th century. While the owners of souvenir shops were selling mugs with the faces of future newlyweds with might and main, and bookmakers were taking bets on all the details of the upcoming celebration, measurements were taken from William's bride Kate Middleton in the UK's leading fashion house, Alexander McQueen.

10 people worked on the dress, which was destined to become the standard of wedding fashion, led by Sarah Burton, the woman who led the brand after the death of its founder. To make the snow-white dress of silk and lace look perfect, the craftsmen had to wash their hands every half an hour and change the needles every three hours. As a result of their work, the perfect princess dress was obtained - sophisticated, delicate and combining the traditions of the royal family. They were reflected on the guipure part of the outfit in the form of floral symbols of the kingdom - the English rose, the Welsh daffodil, the Scottish thistle and the Irish shamrock. Such details, according to the designer, became the main components of the entire wedding image of the duchess, along with her smile, which did not leave her face throughout the fabulous ceremony.

Grace Kelly

The dress of Kate Middleton in many respects repeated the outfit of another princess - the Monegasque princess and star of American cinema Grace Kelly. To tailor the attire for the wedding with Prince Rainier, she invited the costume designer of the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer company Helen Rose, who just a month before the celebration on March 21, 1956 received an Oscar for the best costume design.

Grace's wedding dress, just like the dress of the Duchess of Cambridge, consisted of two textures - lace and ivory silk, which were bought by the actress' fiancé himself in one of the museums. From the same fabric and pearls Grace Kelly's headdress, her prayer book and pumps, decorated with nominal initials, were made. They gave the wedding image even more nobility and elegance and at the same time did not distract the eye from the natural beauty of the bride.

Kate Moss

The dress for the wedding of Kate Moss with The Kills guitarist Jamie Hince made history mainly because of the scandal with its designer, John Galliano. Shortly before a significant day for his close friend, he was fired from his post as creative director of Christian Dior for anti-Semitic statements made while intoxicated. The order for sewing a wedding dress from the most famous model of our time was for Galliano a kind of salvation from everything that happened and salvation from himself.

“Kate’s dress has become, to some extent, symbolic for me,” Galliano admitted in an interview. “The sequins on it are laid out in the form of feathers of the Phoenix bird, which is always reborn from the ashes…”. The cream-colored fitted outfit was also embellished with frills and loose rhinestones, representing the epitome of vintage chic in the best traditions of the era of decadence.

Angelina Jolie

Unlike the dress of Kate Moss, several people worked on the image of Angelina Jolie for her long-awaited wedding with Brad Pitt, and the main members of the creative team were the children, the star of the couple.

Designed by Pax, Maddox, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne, and Knox Jolly-Pitt, the classic Atelier Versace bridal gown and veil featured drawings that turned mom's outfit into a canvas of self-expression. Animals, inscriptions, terrible monsters, planes, tanks and a family holding hands did not spoil the wedding dress at all, but, on the contrary, turned it into an object of affection for millions and a real family heirloom.

Sarah Jessica Parker

Sarah Jessica Parker has been married twice, once in real life and once in Sex and the City. And both of her dresses went down in history as the most extravagant wedding dresses of the last two decades. The dress for Sarah's marriage to actor Matthew Broderick was remembered for its black (!) color and laid the foundation for the fashion for “off-white” wedding dresses. Contrary to all the prejudices associated with the mourning color of the robe, the marriage of Broderick and Parker was very successful and has been going on for almost 20 years.

However, the choice of this color for a wedding dress, the actress considers perhaps her main fashion failure. “If I were getting married now, I would choose an ivory shade,” Sarah said in an interview with a glossy magazine. Such an opportunity was presented to her during the filming of the full-length continuation of the cult series "Sex and the City", where Carrie Bradshaw was finally destined to marry "the man of her dreams." However, the dress of the traditional color from the autumn-winter collection of designer Vivienne Westwood did not bring happiness in family life - the wedding of "forever miss" Bradshaw and Mr. Big did not take place that day.

Khadija Uzhakhova

Perhaps the most pompous dress in the history of wedding fashion belonged to the bride of the son of billionaire Mikhail Gutseriev, Said. The celebration, equal to which Russia has not seen since the broadcast of the wedding of Kate Middleton and Prince William, took place on March 26, 2016 in Moscow and gathered around itself not only the owners of the largest holdings and enterprises, but also Western artists who performed on the stage of the Safisa restaurant.

The main star of the holiday was the bride Khadija Uzhakhova, who appeared before the guests and the groom in a magnificent outfit from the Lebanese designer Elie Saab. The "dream dress" with a fluffy skirt, diamonds and lace inserts was hand-made to the individual order of the Gutserievs and complemented by a long veil and a handbag in the color of the outfit. The total weight of the dress was about 25 kg, and the cost was 27 million rubles, i.e. a little more than 1 million for each kg of outfit ...

Kim Kardashian

For her wedding with Kanye West, reality star Kim Kardashian prepared 4 outfits, but the main and most beautiful of them was the creation of the Givenchy brand, in which the bride said “yes” to her beloved. A mermaid dress with an open back and a long train made of the finest lace emphasized all the already visible virtues of a celebrity, but, moreover, made her fragile, delicate and very romantic.

Fans of the Kardashian-West couple saw the image of the bride only after a while, because the newlyweds forbade the guests of the ceremony to take any photographs. This fact fueled public interest in Kim's outfit and made it one of the most discussed on the Internet. The long-awaited result of the work of Ricardo Tisci, by the way, did not disappoint the public at all, like Kim herself, who to this day tirelessly thanks the designer for making her dream come true.
