Natalia Vodianova Marries The Heir of LVMH In A Chic, Uncoventional Look
Natalia Vodianova and Antoine Arnault are officially married. The supermodel was due to marry the LVMH heir in June earlier this year, however, as with many other marriages, their plans were affected by the coronavirus pandemic.
The couple took their vows during an intimate, small-scale ceremony at the prefecture of the 16th arrondissement in Paris on Monday, September 21. The bride wore an elegant blouse with a belt and exaggerated shoulder pads with a matching skirt by Russian designer Ulyana Sergeenko - a true ode to the 1980s.
The wedding suit, though unconventional, has been a rising bridal trend this year. It was kick-started by Bianca Jagger to her wedding with Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger in 1971 and has since been associated with chic brides.
The lovebirds announced their nuptials on Instagram, with the Russian supermodel and philanthropist taking a video of her and her fiance emerging out of the town hall ceremony, showered with flower petals by their guests when they left the venue after the ceremony. It was certainly an elegant affair.
The newlyweds started dating in 2011 and share two children, Maxim, five, and Roman, three. They got engaged on the eve of New Year last year.
Arnault is head of communication and image for the luxury conglomerate LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton; Berluti's CEO; and president of Loro Piana. Natalia was already famous in the early 2000s as the new generation of supermodels.
Congratulations to the lovebirds!
