Kim Kardashian's controversial wedding guest look is more cut-out than material
While all eyes will undoubtedly be on the bride on her wedding day, having a celebrity wedding guest in attendance can cause a little distraction... Especially when that celebrity wedding guest outfit is a designer showstopper worthy of a red carpet. Case in point: Kylie Jenner's attempt to upstage Mrs Bieber at Hailey and Justin's nuptials in a very risqué gold cut-out gown.
Seemingly, some wedding guest rules just don't seem to apply to A-Listers if Hailey Bieber and Lana Del Rey's white dresses at someone else's (!!) wedding is anything to go by. And we're talking about two different weddings here...
Luckily, other celebs can be relied upon to provide plenty of wedding guest dressing inspo. From Kaia Gerber and Gigi Hadid nailing what to wear to a winter wedding, to Naomi Campbell repping a jumpsuit as a dress alternative and Ashley Graham serving for plus-size wedding guests.
So whether you're set to be a wedding guest later this year or just want to nosy at what your fave celebs wore to celebrate their nearest and dearest, keep scrolling for all the best celebrity wedding guest outfits over the years.
P.S. If you see a celebrity wedding guest outfit you really love, it may be out of your price range to buy but why not search on dress rental sites? You may able to copy their look for (a lot) less!
Kim Kardashian
If there's one thing we know about wedding guest dressing, it's that you must *never* upstage the bride. Now, we haven't seen pics of Stephanie Shepherd's bridal look yet – but somehow we seriously doubt it could be any more of a head-turner than that of BFF and guest Kim Kardashian.
Kim attended her bestie's nuptials in Los Angeles earlier this week wearing one of the boldest wedding guest looks we've ever laid eyes on. Firstly, rocking head-to-toe black would usually be a no-no for a wedding – but when did Kim ever follow the rules? Exactly. Not to mention her 'fit is more cut-out than it is dress, TBH.
Kim wore a velvet maxi skirt from Alaïa's SS23 show featuring daring cut-outs to reveal her high-waisted pants beneath, and paired it with a teeeeny tiny bandeau bra featuring bondage-style straps. She looks 🔥🔥🔥 as ever, ofc. Here's hoping the bride didn't mind...
