“Designing a wedding dress is really about reflecting the bride herself. It can be a very collaborative process between a designer and the bride, making sure to create the dress of her dreams. We focused on a design that was modern and timeless at the same time. Her muse is Grace Kelly, so we tried to create something that would evoke that air and that sense of elegance.” This is how Wes Gordon, creative director of Carolina Herrera, explains the process of making Tamara Falcó's long-awaited wedding dress.
Hello magazine! shows exclusively the best kept secret of the Marquise de Griñón. Isabel Preysler's daughter became a spectacular bride to say "yes, I do" to Íñigo Onieva at the El Rincón palace, a ceremony attended by more than 400 guests.
Falcó donned a classic and sophisticated coat silhouette design made of ivory white silk crepe, with a bateau neckline, a row of buttons and a spectacular and laborious embroidery made with the Zardozi technique, a technique dating from the 12th century that intertwines threads of silk with metal and crystal threads.
A design in which 400 hours were spent and which, in principle, was inspired by the bridal style of Grace Kelly. But the truth is that the princess-cut dress of the actress had a sweetheart neckline and lace that has marked the bridal looks of celebrities such as Kate Middleton or Chiara Ferragni.
A design style that is not reflected in Tamara's design, which could actually have been inspired by Queen Letizia's sophisticated and iconic wedding dress. There are many users who have compared the two dresses and the truth is that they are very similar, especially due to the classic touch and the embroideries.
The then fiancée of Prince Felipe trusted Manuel Pertegaz to make her wedding dress. Letizia Ortiz shone at her wedding with an off-white design and a princess silhouette that had a funnel neck with floral embroidery in silver and gold thread, a detail that was also present on the bottom of the skirt, which ended with a large train of more than four meters.
