"From the beginning, I knew that, if it fit, I wanted to get married in my mother's dress, which Lorenzo Caprile made for her in 1995."
The story of Carlota's wedding dress is fascinating. Designed by Caprile 30 years ago, when she tried it on for the first time, it seemed like it had been tailored for Carlota's body.
The corset was the centerpiece of her wedding dress, a long-sleeved bodice tied with silk bows crisscrossing the back, mimicking classic period costumes. A very long skirt topped with a spectacular tulle train added even more drama and sophistication to the look.
For the meal and celebration, she chose a second Sole Alonso design, lighter and more comfortable so she could enjoy dancing throughout the wedding. For both wedding dresses, she chose our Lou Ámbar gold velvet sandals. Super versatile sandals that perfectly matched both styles of the very different dresses.
