Kourtney Kardashian Gives Fans A Closer Look At Her Dolce & Gabbana Wedding Dress Design Process
On March 19th, the reality star uploaded a photo collection of pics from her Italian wedding in her iconic Dolce & Gabbana white minidress and intricate veil. Other slides included photos of its design process and illustrations of the curve-hugging, corseted, standout piece that stunned us all last spring.
On the same day, the mom of three followed up with another post, this time dedicating her IG carousel to her gothic reception look. This was complete with a waist-emphasizing, fitted black bodysuit, lacy matching opera-length gloves, a skirt of the same material, sheer thigh-high stockings and sleek, pointed-toe pumps.
The reality star wrote in her caption for the first post, “One year ago, we had our first in-person meeting with @dolcegabbana to start the design process of my wedding dress!!” She added that the first inspiration for that dress was “when Travis and I were watching Guns N’ Roses November Rain video one night before we were even engaged, and we said to each other “this has to be our wedding.””

Kardashian continued, “She was wearing a short dress and I thought to myself “I need a short dress!” I had more visions inspired by some 1990s campaigns of Monica Bellucci shot by Helmut Newton for Blumarine.” She went on, “When we knew our wedding was going to be in Portofino, it also influenced the vibes and feeling of the dress. I also just wanted to feel like we ran off to Italy and got married and wanted the dress and wedding to feel that way!”
She also noted that when the luxury label suggested putting “Travis’s head tattoo of the Virgin Mary on the handmade lace veil with the words from his tattoo: family, loyalty, respect underneath,” that she got chills and “knew how special that felt,” as well as her “little mini veil I wore” to dinner. “This was all planned and made into my dream come true all so so quickly and I’m so grateful to everyone who put their all into making it all happen!” she concluded her message.

Kardashian and Barker, 47, have been romantically linked since January 2021, having been friends for years before their relationship turned into something more. They became IG official one month later, and the Blink-182 drummer proposed to Kardashian in October of that same year. They tied the knot (legally and for the first time) in May of 2022. Since then, they continue to give us major couple goals (as well as style inspo!)
