Kourtney Kardashian not only became a bride for the third time in a ceremony in Portofino (she already had ceremonies in Las Vegas and Santa Barbara), but she also scored a fashion hat trick with her wedding outfits.
She proved that a fairy-tale gown, or a gown for that matter, doesn’t have to be the outfit of choice for the modern-day bride. Instead, the new Mrs Barker opted for a biker jacket for her Vega nuptials and a white mini dress for a courthouse ceremony in Santa Barbara.
For the Italian leg of her wedding, the bride chose a Dolce & Gabbana silk lace and satin mini dress that was matched with a dramatic hand-embroidered tulle veil with floral lace appliques. The latter were inspired by flowers found in the gardens of Portofino.
The look screamed “rock ‘n’ roll bride” but also broke the convention that a wedding dress has to be used for a single occasion. Inspired by Kardashian’s sartorial choice, we’ve picked out 10 white dresses with such versatility.
Sarah Burton was inspired by fluffy storm clouds for the design of this shirt dress which boasts a dramatic parachute skirt and cocoon sleeves.
