‘The royal wedding': Madeleine White married DJ Andrew Fedyk
Madeleine White and Andrew Fedyk finally married after an 18-month engagement on the Greek island of Santorini on the weekend.
The professional model turned TikTok star, who documented making her own bridesmaid dresses in the lead up to the big day, left her millions of fans waiting for her own dress reveal.
But on Wednesday, social media was suddenly flooded with content from the star-studded bash, revealing the new Mrs Fedyk wore not one – but four gowns to mark her big day.
'From an ombré pink #OscarDeLaRenta spring 2018 dress to a pink chain-mail dress to #Fendi and #Versace's famous Fendace collaboration, see every look Madeleine White wore for her golden-hour wedding in Santorini,' a video shared by Vogue was captioned.
Fans were quick to flood the prestigious fashion magazine's comment section, declaring: 'She did not disappoint.'
'She's insane and perfect and wonderful in every way,' one commented.
'The FOUR different looks is so Madeleine,' another added.
As someone else declared: 'I fully expected to be amazed, but I literally gasped at these, because somehow, I was even more amazed.'
'This woman has more style than everyone I know combined,' mused another.
'Those dresses are next level, especially the Fendace one Madeleine wore at sunset, pure magic.'
Other fans described the nuptials as 'the royal wedding' and Mrs Fedyk as 'the people's princess' – a comment from the official YouTube account which had almost 20,000 'likes'.
Madeleine's four wedding dresses
The bride wore the ombré pink dress, which she found on second-hand shopping platform Vestiaire Collective, to the welcome party before slipping into her strapless Viktor & Rolf gown on the wedding morning.
The dress, from the couture fashion label's 2023 collection, was embellished with 40 butterflies for a personal touch, according to Vogue.
The happy couple, who met through mutual friends in 2020, hosted a 'golden-hour' reception after their 'emotional' ceremony, which saw the TikTok star switch into her third bridal look – a backless halter gown by Berta.
For the evening party, she opted for a pink chain-mail dress from Fendi and Versace's famous Fendace collaboration, which she said was a nod to one of her 'first viral videos'.
'What the hell': Shock at broken wedding rule
Since Vogue's exclusivity veil has lifted, the newlyweds have been able to post about the big day on their own socials, with the new Mrs Fedyk declaring their wedding to be 'best day ever ever ever'.
She also revealed she had a 'panic attack before walking down the aisle' which resulted in her 'having to unzip my dress'.
Luckily, her three bridesmaids and soon-to-be husband were on hand to give her a 'pep talk' as she cooled herself down with a battery operated fan.
A video of the moment was shared with the caption, 'honestly one of my fave videos of the day', and received a huge applause from fans.
'If he doesn't hype me up and support me like this, I don't want it,' one remarked.
'Confirmation you married the right man,' said another.
However some pointed out it was 'bad luck' to see the bride before the wedding, igniting a huge debate among followers.
'Seeing the bride before the wedding isn't 'bad luck', it was invented for arranged marriages to prevent the groom from backing out,' one claimed.
'He saw you before walking down the aisle??!!! What the hell?,' declared another.
As one argued: 'The whole 'seeing the bride before the wedding is bad luck' is such an outdated wedding rule people.'

Delta Goodrem reveals fifth all-white wedding look as she continues to celebrate her big day
Delta Goodrem has shown off a fifth all-white wedding dress that she wore while celebrating her wedding. Goodrem married Matthew Copley at a 12th century cathedral in Malta, where he proposed, and wore three gowns by two of her favourite Australian designers when she walked down the aisle last month. In the latest pictures shared to her Instagram, Goodrem gave further insight into her celebrations where she was surrounded by her closest friends and family. In the romantic snaps, Goodrem posed against a stunning scenic backdrop before being joined by her new hubby as the pair both flashed a satisfied smile. 'I always knew what I wanted my wedding dress to be,' she told Vogue earlier this month. 'And I knew the perfect designer for it. Paul [Vasileff, creative director and designer of Paolo Sebastian] and I connected the second I got engaged, and we started working together immediately. I am very lucky I get to wear beautiful dresses as part of my job, so I wanted this one to feel super personal and very special.' The resulting lace gown 'was structured, yet still delicate and feminine', Goodrem said. 'It was a statement piece but a fairytale dress. The sweeping train and the tulle cathedral veil perfectly suited the style of the wedding and the surroundings.' Goodrem first shared snaps from her wedding when she took to social media earlier this month to first announce her big day. 'June 2025, Husband and Wife. It was more magical than we both could have dreamed,' she wrote. 'We said I do under the Maltese skies in a family fairytale wedding brought to life by so many angels surrounding us. We are holding on to every memory from that moment, the love, the laughter, the happy tears and dancing till the sun came up.' She added: 'We can't wait to come back to Australia and celebrate as Mr & Mrs.' Goodrem's near-decade-long relationship with Copley followed a string of high-profile romances with other celebrities – including Nick Jonas, Brian McFadden and Mark Philippoussis – earlier in her career.

Stranger's offhand comment shows what's wrong with Australian culture
A Sydney woman was doing a classic coffee run with her sister in Bondi before a day of shopping the boutiques in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs. Melanie Quick and her sister Courtney both have a penchant for good style, but as they ordered their matchas and waited for them to arrive, a stranger made a comment to them that caught them off guard. They asked, 'Why are you so dressed up? Where are you going?' Ms Quick was wearing a cream quarter-zip sweater tucked into a slouchy silk maxi skirt and flats, while Courtney wore a faux fur coat and black jeans. While many might consider their outfits 'extra', by Aussie standards, where everyone seems to get around in activewear, it was no ballgown and heels. So it made her wonder, why does it feel so wrong to dress nicely in Australia these days? The 'overdressed' remark 'My mum always encouraged us to wear what makes us feel our best, and always shares stories about how stylish her own mother was, so I guess a sense of self-expression runs in our family,' Ms Quick told 'I always found so much joy in putting together an outfit, even if it's for something simple, like getting a coffee. I don't enjoy wearing activewear unless I'm working out or at home.' So when the stranger asked them that question, with a subtle air of judgment, she responded quite directly and refused to feel embarrassed. 'I just said we were here for coffee and offered no other explanation,' she said. Others agree we have a fashion issue down under After making a TikTok about the encounter, she was met with overwhelming support from others who thought Aussies were far too comfortable dressing down. One comment read: 'Australia is honestly one of the most poorly dressed countries … every other country I've travelled to, people dress to the 10s wherever they go but here we call it a 'day out in town' if it's more than a T-shirt and jeans'. Another noted: 'I found that when I was in Europe, genuinely no one batted an eye at my outfits, everyone was so stylish and put together, especially in Italy. But when I dress like this in Australia, all I get are stares and questions like 'Who are you dressing up for?' Ummm myself? We hate individuality here'. Is Tall Poppy Syndrome at play? Ms Quick believes this has to do with our laid-back, outdoor culture, where wearing athleisure is the unofficial uniform. According to a recent study, 78 per cent of Aussies say they wear activewear as casual wear when they're out and about. Around 40 per cent of people said they wore activewear most days, if not every day. But she also thinks something deeper is at play that contributes to people not wanting to appear as if they're trying too hard. 'When someone dresses a bit differently or is 'overdressed' – Tall Poppy Syndrome comes into play, which affects how we react to confidence and ambition,' she said. Tall Poppy Syndrome is an Australian term that describes the tendency of people to belittle or undermine those who stand out. 'Even something as small as dressing nicely can be seen as being attention-seeking,' she added. Perhaps this is a collective 'cultural cringe' According to Jacob Loaf, an Aussie fashion commentator, this phenomenon is part of our country's collective 'cultural cringe' towards people who take pride in their fashion sense. 'Australians fear dressing up,' he said, adding that this exists for men as well as women. 'When people even want to wear pants and nice shoes as opposed to a Gymshark tee and Kmart pants, it's frowned upon.' 'Why is hyper-casual clothing the societal norm?' he asked. Why people dress better overseas In fashion forums and Reddit communities, this topic is also a common subject of discussion. 'Why do we dress so casually here compared to Americans or the French?' someone asked in the r/AusFemaleFashion forum. Many comments mentioned our climate, citing our year-round warm weather as a reason why people choose less formal, more relaxed clothing. 'Coats, blazers, and jackets that can add polish to an outfit aren't needed much,' said one. Some also pointed out that we don't have many 'walkable' cities, which means people spend a lot of time, often on public transport, getting around, meaning they opt for more comfortable outfits. Another raised the point that it was to do with our limited access to upmarket clothing labels. 'Our mainstream fashion is very basic, and our niche brands can be over-the-top colourful – so if you want something nicer and elegant, it's next to impossible to find,' claimed one. Meanwhile, someone else claimed that it's because Aussies generally don't have many formal events to go to, and our lives revolve more around everyday activities. 'Embrace individual style' Despite all these discussions, Ms Quick says she isn't going to reconsider her fashion choices and will continue to dress in ways that make her feel confident. 'I think it's time we start to embrace individual style and celebrate people who want to express themselves through fashion,' she said. 'At the end of the day, what we wear is an extension of who we are, and I love seeing people feel confident and happy in their clothes. I truly think that deserves to be celebrated.'

Jessica Simpson suffers wardrobe malfunction during live TV performance
Jessica Simpson appeared to suffer a wardrobe malfunction during her performance on the US Today show, as the singer's corset-style dress slipped down, revealing her bra. While on the stage at Rockefeller Plaza in New York City, the top left part of Simpson's pale pink lace-up frock – which was adorned with feathers on the skirt – fell below the singer's blush-coloured lingerie. Fortunately, Simpson's long, wavy blonde hair and metallic fringe jacket kept her covered up during the accidental peekaboo moment. The fashion mogul styled her statement-making look with an oversized cross necklace and chunky silver rings. Despite the wardrobe malfunction, it's safe to say Simpson's performance this morning went better than her recent appearance on American Idol, which marked her first time on stage in 15 years. In May, she sang her hit These Boots Are Made for Walkin' alongside the ABC series' former contestant Josh King, and it didn't go particularly well, as many called it a 'train wreck.' Simpson, who wore a plunging silver metallic maxi dress, addressed the backlash a few days later, admitting that she was 'dying' during the performance. 'I can't even tell you how long it's been since I've been that nervous,' she told Extra. 'Like, I had to put hairspray on my feet to stand still, like, not that it actually keeps me put, but, like, my feet were sweating. I'm like, 'My feet don't sweat,'' Simpson confessed. In March, the mother of three returned to the music scene after a 15-year hiatus, dropping her EP Nashville Canyon, Part 1, with the second part slated to come out on September 5.
