Lauren Sanchez wedding gown revealed
After much anticipation, Lauren Sanchez's wedding gown has been revealed, with Dolce & Gabbana confirmed as the fashion house behind the elegant, high-necked design featuring 180 silk chiffon-covered priest buttons. Many details surrounding the Bezos-Sanchez wedding extravaganza have been closely guarded and, in keeping with tradition, this secrecy of course extended to the bridal dress. But the sartorial embargo could not keep a lid on early rumors that Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana were the designers behind the look, which was finished with a traditional tulle-and-lace veil, inspired by the one Sophia Loren wore in the 1958 film 'Houseboat,' according to Vogue. A year and a half in the making, Sanchez told Vogue in an exclusive interview that the original concept for the dress came about over dinner with Dolce in New York. 'It went from 'I want a simple, sexy modern dress' to 'I want something that evokes a moment,'' she recalled. Sanchez's personal affinity to the luxury Italian brand is no secret, and she's now a regular attendee of its fashion shows. Sanchez attended the house's Alta Sartoria couture show in Sardinia last summer where she watched on — in white, no less — as her son Nikko Gonzalez walked the runway. Gonzalez had made his debut for Dolce & Gabbana during the brand's fall-winter 2024 menswear show in Milan in January of that year, with both Sanchez and Bezos in the front row. Dolce was also photographed in Venice on Thursday, further fueling speculation that the designers were involved in the wedding. Sanchez's bold style has evolved significantly over the years. In the lead-up to her Met Gala debut in 2024, when she stepped out in a strapless Oscar de la Renta custom design, she told Vogue: 'I think my personal style is ever-evolving. I was a reporter for a long time, so it was suits. Then did a morning show and you dressed a little differently. I've always had to dress for the role I was in. Now I'm having fun.'

Meanwhile, a survey of her more formal looks in recent years reveals a trend toward form-fitting, strapless and mermaid-cut gowns, exemplified by the shimmering nereid-inspired Roberto Cavalli gown she wore to the amfAR gala in Cannes last month. In the digital cover story for Vogue, Sanchez said the more full-coverage bridal look is 'a departure from what people expect.' Her husband-to-be, she said, begged to see the dress before their nuptials. The interview also detailed her outfit changes for the evening: a sweetheart-neck, corseted silhouette (inspired by the Rita Hayworth-led 1946 film 'Gilda') for the wedding dinner, and an intricate cocktail dress featuring 175,000 crystals by Oscar de la Renta — who had also been rumored as a strong contender for the design of her wedding gown. Sanchez has turned to celebrity stylists like Molly Dickson and to help craft her look for major public events, as many prominent figures do. Dickson, who counts Sydney Sweeney and Bella Hadid among her clients, styled Sanchez in a remarkably bridal, all-white Oscar de la Renta custom gown for the Vanity Fair Oscar party in March. While the design by Dolce & Gabbana was the main event, Sanchez tantalized onlookers with numerous other high-fashion ensembles including a single-strapped vintage Alexander McQueen dress and an embroidered corset dress from Schiaparelli's most recent couture show over the course of celebrations.

Paris Hilton shares sweet snaps of her kids from yachting trip to Sardinia
Paris Hilton has shared sweet snaps of her kids as she continued her luxurious yachting trip to Sardinia, Italy. The star, 44, shared a glimpse into her trip, with her 'cutesie crew' scampering about the ship in two posts uploaded on Instagram this week. She was seen playing with her food with her children, making crafts with them, and had toys strewn about her yacht. 'Sliving in Sardinia with my #CutesieCrew,' she captioned a Wednesday post. 'Making the most magical memories with the people I love the most.' And on Thursday, she wrote: 'I never want this trip to end, but don't worry there's more looks to serve.' In an adorable video, Paris and her children played with their food as they inspected a banana peel sliced to resemble a squid. As Paris held the fruit up for her children, her daughter appeared to laugh as her son reached for it. The mother-daughter duo also appeared to have a fun moment of crafting together. Paris created a colorful heart while her daughter showed off her finger painted masterpiece. Once on dry land, Paris and her kids had fun checking out the sights and shopping at a local vendor selling jewelry. The social media sensation was able to squeeze in some 'me time', however, as she posed up a storm about the yacht.
