Carolina Herrera Annabella Gown

Modern elegance with a timeless twist was what Alexandra was after when choosing a wedding day look. “Having done the ‘princess’ look for prom, I aspired to look like a queen on my wedding day,” says Alexandra. The Annabella dress by Carolina Herrera fit the bill, with its strapless fit-and-flare silhouette and ivory silk Mikado fabric. To give the dress a personal touch, she accented her waist with the gold cameo pin her grandfather brought home from WWII and vintage Stanley Hagler earrings. “I bought my first pair of Jimmy Choos for the event,” says Alexandra. “They served as my something blue!”
