chose American fashion designer Richard Tyler to style the gown for her
big day. "His gowns have classic elegance, beautiful lines and exquisite
tailoring," she said, adding that it was a joy that he offered his services.
"I had seen a collection of his, featuring a beautiful coat as a wedding
dress. My vision for the coat was lace, to make it lighter, airier and more
romantic, to suit the abbey."
But it did not all go to plan. "I had hoped to wear this beautiful lace
coat over my wedding dress during the ceremony, then take it off at the
party so I could dance and enjoy myself. But the dress we had initially
envisioned didn't fit with the coat, so I decided to keep the dress for
the party and Richard designed a very simple silk slip dress to go underneath
the coat instead. It's easy to move in and incredibly beautiful."
"The dress was designed and made with love, hope, dreams and pearls and
beautiful lace… what more could a girl ask for?" |
