Pop star’s choice was surprisingly traditional – but brand has a legacy of clothing unconventional brides
Charli xcx is a British pop star known for pioneering trends. Last summer she turned the word “Brat” into a cultural phenomenon complete with a uniform featuring “a pack of cigs, a Bic lighter, and a strappy white top with no bra.”
So it came as somewhat of a surprise to fans when, last weekend, she opted for a more classic bridal look to marry George Daniel, the drummer in the band the 1975.
Arriving at Hackney town hall in east London, the bride wore a white sculpted corseted minidress from Vivienne Westwood. Even her accessories veered towards the traditional: a bouquet of locally grown white cosmos and dahlias, a short white veil, and slingback heels.
Despite the look being more conventional than defiant, Alexandra Macon, the weddings editor of Vogue.com and founder of the e-commerce site Over The Moon, describes the pop star’s choice of designer as a “perfect match”.
