Dua Lipa and Georgina Rodríguez have put a fresh spin on celebrity bridal fashion by choosing sophisticated suit-and-skirt combinations instead of traditional gowns. Dua wore a custom Schiaparelli ivory ensemble for her May wedding, while Georgina chose a white Gucci jacket and midi skirt for her August wedding to Cristiano Ronaldo. Their looks revive a fashion idea with decades of history.
Wedding fashion is having a power-dressing makeover. The traditional white gown may still be a bridal favourite, but 2026 has seen a growing number of celebrity brides choosing something sharper, sleeker and decidedly less conventional. From Dua Lipa to Georgina Rodríguez, the suit-and-skirt combination is emerging as one of the year's most talked-about alternatives to the classic wedding dress.
Dua Lipa revives the trend
When Dua Lipa married Callum Turner on May 31, 2026, at London's iconic Old Marylebone Town Hall, she opted for a bridal look that felt polished without being overly traditional.
Designed by Daniel Roseberry for Schiaparelli, her custom ivory ensemble paired a sharply structured jacket with an elegant asymmetric midi skirt. The jacket's sculpted tailoring was adorned with statement gold-toned buttons, bringing the unmistakable Schiaparelli touch to the otherwise classic ivory palette. Instead of a conventional veil, Dua donned a dramatic wide-brimmed hat by milliner Stephen Jones, finished with gold detailing underneath.
