David’s Bridal Recreates Kim Kardashian Wedding Dress
After all, the royal wedding wasn’t even over when Allen Schwartz started working on a replica of Kate Middleton’s gorgeous Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen wedding dress, and now David’s Bridal isn’t wasting any time either in creating a copy of that other blockbuster bridal gown.
Though Vera Wang custom-designed Kim Kardashian’s three wedding dresses (worth a rumored $30,000 each!), her ongoing partnership with David’s Bridal on a lower-priced line, White by Vera Wang, meant that they got first dibs on the reality star’s look.
According to E!, Vera Wang in collaboration with David’s Bridal will recreate two of the three dresses—the ballgown worn for her walk down the aisle and a ruffled mermaid gown worn at the reception—for just $1,600 each.Of course,School bags, at that price they won’t be carbon copies of Kim’s, but Wang told the network that the White by Vera Wang dresses “will certainly capture that sense of old-fashioned romance.”
British pop star Adele has ‘poise, taste, humour, and soul’ when it comes to her style, according to designer Barbara Tfank.The Someone Like You singer prefers to dress in black so Barbara, who dressed her for the 2009 Grammys, chose to design for her as if she were ‘starring in a black and while movie’.'I always take her lead and know I can trust her instincts – as Adele prefers black, I design for her as if she were staring in a black and white movie.
‘Instead of colour, I play with texture, trims, shape and illumination.’
Vogue editor Anna Wintour was the one who suggested that Barbara should work with Adele, 23, on her fashion choices.She added: ‘Anna Wintour had seen one of my double-faced, satin, cocktail coats and suggested I make a coat for Adele to wear to the 2009 Grammy Awards. ‘The coat was chartreuse but, as Adele loves black, we all agreed on a black satin dress to go with the coat. ‘Hamish Bowles, who escorted Adele to the Grammys, sees in her the quality of a Gainsborough portrait – and so we chose a 19th Century floral diamond brooch, which she wore on her decolletage.’
