Julien Macdonald has designed an opulent wedding dress made not just for any celebrity. Inspired by the Little Mermaid, it is made with Disney princesses in mind. Thus, those with a love of fairy tales and who have a few bucks to spare will love to walk down the aisle in this striking opulent wedding dress. Macdonald says, "She lives in a tropical sea with flowers and jumping fish and she lures a tattooed man to the bottom of the ocean. So the dresses are a mix of tattoos and flowers, with fabrics that really hold and accentuate the body.”
Although quite classic and elegant in design, the opulent wedding dress is encrusted with real diamond and fresh water pearls. With a deep neck line and slim silhouette and flared train, it stole the show during the London Fashion Week. Part of the designer’s Spring/ Summer 2015 collection, the opulent wedding dress
