The aristocrat Eugenia Martínez de Irujo has broken with the traditional protocol by attending the highly anticipated wedding of Tamara Falcó and Íñigo Onieva with an unconventional outfit. The daughter of the Duchess of Alba decided to go for a medieval-style design signed by Teresa Helbig, which stood out for its vanilla tone and a notable ornamental detail: an embroidered bird in the waist area.
The piece, which is from Helbig's latest collection, Boleyn, in honor of Anne Boleyn and the fashion of her time, featured a long pleated skirt, slightly puffed sleeves and a smocked bodice. This ensemble was complemented by a crown-shaped braided up-do, matching sandals and an ostentatious gold bracelet, in harmony with the discreet pendant and earrings.
The opinions against the choice of the aristocrat have been practically unanimous. There is an unwritten convention that suggests that wedding guests avoid wearing white or very light colors similar to white, such as ecru or vanilla. The reason for this is that these colors are traditionally reserved for the bride, as a way of allowing her to stand out on her special day.
In this case, Eugenia Martínez de Irujo could have broken the rules of the protocol because her vanilla-colored dress could be considered too similar to white. This could be interpreted as a lack of respect towards her girlfriend.
In addition, the aristocrat already had a run-in with Falcó months before the wedding that endangered her attendance at the expected wedding. In the month of February, questioned by all the controversies of the couple, Martínez de Irujo, was quite clear: "I am not going, come on, I don't think so. Tamara is younger than me and we are not friends either. We have never gone out together then You don't have to invite me, really." However, these words have not taken their toll on him like Boris Izaguirre.
