Wedding Week! Iman and David Bowie
We thought we’d celebrate Friday’s royal wedding with a look at some of our favorite fashionable couples, beginning with supermodel Iman and David Bowie, who will celebrate their 19th wedding anniversary this June 6. (The black and white images are from German Vogue, I think, and while the awesome cascading number Iman wears in the pictures is not the dress she wore for her actual wedding, but it’s just so pretty that I wanted to show it, too.) The couple married on a Saturday at 4 p.m. at Saint James Church in Florence, Italy. Iman wore a skin-tight oyster-colored bandage halter dress with a long train designed by Herve Leger, diamond-and-pearl drop earrings and ivory silk opera gloves and carried a cascading bouquet of white starburst lillies. “I wanted something very simple, elegant, no frills, no fashion, no gimmicks. Something that would outlast anything,” Iman said later. In lieu of a veil, stylist Teddy Antolin—who had introduced the couple at a dinner party two years earlier—styled Iman’s hair in massive tendrils of endless curls. Bowie wore a Thierry Mugler tuxedo, saying, “I asked my good friend Thierry Mugler, who has been designing my suits for a good few years now, to do a variation on traditional tails. He has done a delightful job. I think it looks quite dashing. I know Mugler likes it, but Mugler likes everything he designs and nine times out of ten, so do I.” See more pics, including the couple at their real wedding, after the jump:
