As a very special favour to HELLO!, one of the world’s most respected couturiers, Italian designer Valentino Garavani shared with us this exclusive sketch showing his vision of the wedding dress the world is waiting to see.
The result is a stunning gown fit for a modern yet romantic fairytale Princess.
“The bodice is in a very light lace with embroidering of little flowers,” says Valentino.
“The bow and the volant at the end of the top accentuates the waist and, below that, the skirt is all tucked with small tucks to accentuate her narrow hips.”
The gown’s opera-length embroidered sleeves ensure the famously demure bride-to-be doesn’t show too much skin, while the skirt, made in off-white organza, is almost matched in length by the long, embroidered veil.
