They say third time’s a charm — and I definitely think that’s the case for Kim Kardashian! The 33-year-old looked absolutely breathtaking for her wedding ceremony at Forte di Belvedere in Florence, Italy on May 24, where she emerged in a stunning haute couture creation, crafted by the couple’s good friend, (and Givenchy creative director!), Riccardo Tisci. While months of speculation surrounding what the hot mama would wear for her walk down the aisle, the finished result, (which we spotted in the couple’s first official photos on E!), managed to totally exceed our expectations — and it also reminded us of yet another white dress Kim rocked in 2011.
When Kim tied the knot and married NBA player Kris Humphries she went for a more-is-more approach in a full, strapless Vera Wang ball gown. The sexy dress allowed the star to flaunt her ample cleavage and she dressed it up with a slew of jewelry, including a diamond headpiece, which sparkled as she wore her hair slicked back. Designer Vera Wang happens to be a close friend of the Kardashians and crafted three dresses for Kim to wear while celebrating her 2011 wedding — but nothing was quite as dramatic as the dress she wore down the aisle!
While Kim went for a traditional princess approach for her 2011 wedding, her 2014 ensemble was definitely more understated and chic. Sporting a lace dress that featured long-sleeves, the mermaid silhouette hugged her svelte frame while sheer cutouts at the side and at the back added a sexy vibe to her sophisticated gown. Kim stuck to the minimal vibe by wearing her long brown hair down in a soft style, which was covered by a matching silk train that was trimmed with lace — it was simply stunning! Diamond Martin Katz studs, (a gift her new groom, Kanye West, gifted to her in 2013), finished off her ensemble.
Kim loves getting glam and I thought that for her Florence wedding she would’ve dressed over-the-top — so I was pleasantly surprised to see her opt for something more understated. Personally I loved everything about her Givenchy gown — it was head-to-toe perfection!
Do you agree? Which dress did you like better?
