In May last year, Kourtney Kardashian caught everyone’s attention when she got married to Travis Barker in a short lingerie wedding dress. Almost a year later, she’s sharing more information about why she chose such a bold design. On her wedding day, Kourtney Kardashian was definitely not the least fascinating thing to look at.
The oldest Kardashian sibling shared a nostalgic Instagram post commemorating the first anniversary of her collaboration with Dolce & Gabbana in creating her wedding dress for her upcoming May 2022 wedding.
The post included multiple photos of her wearing the white dress she chose for her marriage to musician Travis Barker and behind-the-scenes glimpses of the design process.
Recent photos reveal that Kardashian has been participating in Zoom calls with her team to finalize details for her veil, including a replica of Barker’s head tattoo. The photos also feature early sketches of the veil and dress and images of how they looked on Kardashian during her wedding day.
In the caption, she provided additional information about the custom outfit’s inspiration. She explained how she and Travis were watching Guns N’ Roses’ November Rain music video before getting engaged, and they both agreed it should be their wedding theme. The bride was wearing a short dress in the video, which sparked the idea for her own outfit. She also drew inspiration from the 1990s campaigns of Monica Bellucci, photographed by Helmut Newton for Blumarine.
The Blumarine dress was a wedding gown that only covered the chest with mesh and exposed the breasts while using the corset as a push-up. The dress lacked a skirt and featured a long, floral-accented veil, headdress, and bloomers instead of a skirt,According to Page Six.
Kardashian revealed how her wedding location and Barker’s head tattoo inspired her dress and tied the day together.
She wrote, “Knowing our wedding would be in Portofino influenced the vibes and feeling of the dress.” “I also wanted to feel like we eloped to Italy and got married, and I wanted the bridal dress and ceremony to reflect this! When @dolcegabbana suggested placing Travis’s head tattoo of the Virgin Mary on a handmade lace veil with the words from his tattoo: family, loyalty, and reverence, I got chills and realized how special that felt.”
