Two ceremonies, two dresses

Dua Lipa and actor Callum Turner were married in a discreet civil ceremony at the Old Marylebone Town Hall in London on 31 May 2026. For that event, the singer wore a Schiaparelli Couture white skirt-and-jacket ensemble designed by Daniel Roseberry, with an oversized hat by Stephen Jones and Christian Louboutin heels. Turner chose a classic navy Ferragamo suit. A week later, the couple hosted a grand Sicilian party at Villa Valguarnera, an 18th-century mansion near Palermo, where the main wedding dress was finally revealed.

The Chanel masterpiece

For the 6 June celebration Lipa turned to Chanel Haute Couture and Matthieu Blazy, who created his first bridal design as the house’s creative director. The dress was a sirena silhouette with a halter neckline and an open back framed by criss-crossed bands of crystals. Hand-embroidered at 31 Rue Cambon, it required 1,155 hours of work across four Maisons d’art. The Atelier Montex applied 480,000 pearls and crystals, Lesage worked trompe-l’œil jewellery motifs, and Lemarié hand-sewed 25,000 feathers onto the hem and a two-metre train. A six-metre tulle veil embroidered with beads, feathers and hand-cut organza appliqués completed the look, along with custom white satin pumps by Massaro. Turner wore a custom black Louis Vuitton suit with a bow tie.

The Instagram moment

On 20 June, nearly three weeks after the ceremonies, Lipa shared about a dozen official images captured by photographer David Sims. She captioned the post simply,

“Mr. and Mrs.”
