When it comes to fashion-conscious, stylish weddings, it will be hard for any celebrity couple to top Kate Moss and Jamie Hince’s July nuptials. From the detail of the clothing to the centuries-old church in the Costwolds, everything about the event managed to strike a balance between elegance and quaintness. It’s certainly a wedding that will drive trends in coming years, and countless brides are already poring over the details for their own wedding inspiration.
Moss’s look was an easygoing take on 1920s glamour. Her gauzy, delicately embroidered gown, designed for her by John Galliano, was strewn with sparkling rhinestones and sequins. Her veil choice was unique, but right on par for the fashion iconoclast – she chose a cap veil that cascaded down over her loose hair for an airy, whimsical look.
Hince’s choice of suit managed to merge wedding appropriateness with a bit of rock-and-roll style (fitting for the lead singer of The Kills). The gray, double-breasted suit featured slim-leg trousers that gave it a modern edge that was even more dramatic when paired with charcoal gray suede boots and aviator sunglasses.
The bride and groom were accompanied by a coterie of 16 bridesmaids and flower girls, ranging in age from 2 to 14. Their gauzy white dresses and crowns of delicate white flowers added to the wedding’s luxuriously dreamy atmosphere. After the ceremony, the couple was whisked away in a white Rolls Royce to their reception, where guests like Stella McCartney, Jude Law and Jade Jagger helped celebrate.
While not everyone can spring for a multi-million-dollar event, any bride can find inspiration in the Moss-Hince wedding. To get the look yourself, study up on 1920s style, opt for soft colors in an almost monochrome palette, and choose small, delicate flowers and intricate jewelry.
