Iconic Celebrity Brides: The Quintessential, Audrey Hepburn

Who better to start off our iconic bride series than the most recognisable actress of all time!

Audrey Hepburn married Mel Ferrer in 1954 and wore an absolutely darling wedding dress by French couturier Pierre Balmain.

She combined her classic elegance and pixie crop hair style with a floral wreath headband to create a look that could be worn by many a bride today.

Assuring us once again that Hepburn's style is timeless! 

Dirty Fabulous has this stunning, vintage ivory satin, wedding dress in stock which strikes an uncanny resemblance to Audrey's first wedding gown. I absolutely adore this dress, every time I walk past it in the shop I want to try it on (and some day I just might!). 

€820 Bust:34 Waist:26  Hips:Free 

Now that you've found your perfect Audrey dress all you need to do is adorn your luscious locks with one of our bespoke floral headbands. Priced from €75 to €140

We'll be featuring some more of Audrey's iconic bridal looks later in our series including the outfit she wore for her second wedding and her famous "Funny Face" wedding gown!

Who doesn't like a bit of fluff and fabulousness!!!

Although not ideal for every occasion, feathers make the perfect show stopping accompaniment for that must 'WOW' event.

And if you can't wear feathers at Christmas then when can you?!

Forget feather boas and look for feather adorned vintage dresses and capes instead.

Designers from the 1920's right up to the 80's used plush plumage's at times to decorate their masterpieces.

Dirty Fabulous often has some feathery offerings so make us your must go to shop for your next big event!
