Lena Dunham, marries (surprisingly) in Christopher Kane

Lena Dunham she got married and did it as the perfect protagonist of one of her screenplays. There was rumor about this London wedding but the confirmation of the union that took place last Saturday in a private club in Soho with Luis Felber. She is a well-rounded creative who made herself known in 2012 for the cult series Girls, he is a British-Peruvian musician who plays under the stage name of Attawalpa. The two who met at the beginning of the year in a blind date organized by friends, organized the wedding in a month.

This did not stop the bride from having well three tailored suits signed by the stylist Christopher Kane.

“The only thing I really knew I wanted was to have a bow on my head,” confessed Lena Dunham to British Vogue. In the dress of the ceremony they ended up as inspiration, the dress of Pattie Boyd when she got married to George Harrison is that of Sharon Tate for marriage with Roman Polanski, defined by the actress and director (and writer and producer and much more) “the best wedding dress in history”.
Among the references there is also a hint of June Carter Cash, Priscilla Presley e Sissy Spacek in the movie The girl from Nashville. “You look like your First Communion or a Madame Alexander doll,” Christopher Kane told her as she faced the finished work. “I love both!” answered the bride who, at the suggestion of her stylist friend, combined the outfit with a pair of shoes by Miu Miu white like opaque stockings.

The dress for the second time, the one after the rite, was instead long in silk, cream color. Like the previous one, this is also a reinterpretation of a model from a few collections ago and to make it characteristic there is the slightly high neck, the long puffed sleeves with a side cut and a sort of rhinestone frame on the front of the dress. Instead of the veil, this time a crown made for the occasion by a friend of the groom who is an accessories brand bridal, Dolecka, as well as the headband for the last outfit of the party.

“My third dress was a surprise,” she revealed to Vogue Uk “I actually started crying when Christopher took her to the final test.” “Anyone who has followed Christopher in recent years knows he has become an extraordinary painter,” he continued. “He painted the portrait that was on our wedding invitation on the front of the silk dress and added sequined eyes and lips: the dress was beautiful , fun to wear and suitable for dancing because it was like a giant tent and just as chic ».

The groom was more sparing in his choices. The blue suede leather suit with metal studs designed by was enough Emily Bode even if he slipped his wife’s blue garter on his head for dancing. The bridesmaids instead, including figure Taylor Swift, they first dressed clothes of the English brand The Vampire’s Wife which was followed by Kane’s silver pleated dresses with a Sixties mood.
In this marriage Sui generis, there was no lack of the “something old” worn by the bride – an earring of the mother of the time when she was studying in Rome that became a pendant – and the “something borrowed”, a Lego soldier that belonged to the son of Alissa Bennett, his podcast companion. The sapphire wedding band, based on the model of those designed by Paloma Picasso for Tiffany, found space next to the engagement ring. Belonging to the Peruvian grandmother, it is an Inca relic of the family of the artist she married, which dates back to 1700: Lena wears it on her little finger and Luis wears the wedding ring on the same finger. “That way he can play the guitar better,” she said of him. Although extravagant, that’s how he defines it Vogue, in this marriage all the conventions were respected.
