A dream dress

Last Saturday the heir of Luxembourg Prince Guillaume married Belgium countess Stephanie. There is nothing more magical than a royal wedding and I watched it on tv.
 
The gown of the bride was designed by Lebanese Elie Saab and was stunning. It took a total of 3,900 hours to make, 700 with the seamstress and an extraordinary 3,200 for embroidery. The design was embellished with 50,000 pearls, threaded with ethereal silver and completed with a 13 feet train.
 
 
I was not there, the pictures are from internet, but sometimes it is nice to dream away a little.

  2. Ja ik heb er ook een gedeelte van gezien. Wat een mooi stel en een prachtige maar wel erg lange kerkdienst.
