Elegant doesn't even come close

Miranda Kerr got married in secret in May, and while she gave us a glimpse of her sparkling wedding ring, we were still none the wiser as to what the wedding dress looked like. Was it a minimalist silk dress, a boho lace dress or a sleek fishtail gown?

Well lucky for us, we need wonder no more, as Miranda has finally lifted the veil (pun intended) on her bridal gown, and it's absolutely stunning.

It's a custom Dior gown, exclusively designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri and was inspired by Grace Kelly's iconic wedding dress.

The satin gown features a high neck, long sleeves and a full skirt embellished with pearls shaped like lilies of the valley. She accessorised with a cathedral length veil and an pearl-encrusted tiara.

Miranda shared the pictures, taken by Patrick Demarchelier for Vogue US, in which she also poses with husband Evan, who looked dapper in a simple navy suit, also by Dior.

The model told the publication why she opted for a classic dress, 'I’ve had a lot of fun with fashion, and I used to be more wild, free, bohemian. But in this period of my life, my style is more pulled back. My greatest sources of inspiration have always been Grace, Audrey Hepburn, and my grandmother, who at 80 has an effortless chic: a nice pant, a white blouse, a scarf, a little heel.'

We certainly can't argue that the dress is a timeless work of art.

Penny grew up in France and studied languages and law at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris before moving to the UK for her MA in multimedia journalism at Bournemouth University. She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).

Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.

However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.

Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
