Sofia Richie Collaborated With Chanel on Her 3 Custom Wedding Gowns: ‘I Feel Like a Princess’

A princess bride! Sofia Richie stunned in three custom Chanel gowns during her wedding weekend with now-husband Elliot Grainge.“I always had this vision of the big princess dress, and going big, but as I got older, I realized that I wanted something a bit more simple,” the model, 24, told Vogue in an interview published on Saturday, April 22, after her ceremony concluded. “Maybe ‘simple’ isn’t the right word because my dress definitely is not simple!”Richie — who is the daughter of Lionel Richie and his ex-wife Diane Alexander — walked down the aisle to Grainge, 29, in a beaded lace gown with a halter neckline by the fashion house.“We created the top of that dress and made it bridal-y,” Sofia told Vogue, noting she was inspired by a similar look from Chanel’s fall 2023 collection. “It is such magic.

I honestly think Elliot is going to love it. He is my biggest cheerleader when it comes to anything I wear. If he doesn’t cry, I’ll be very sad.”Sofia’s ceremony look also included several personal touches, including an embroidered “S&E 4.22.23”  sewn on the inside with blue thread — to be her “something blue” on Saturday.

The NudeStix beauty director’s bridal gown featured beaded hearts on the bodice, as well.“We also loved the heart design in the middle of my chest and my ribs,” Sofia told the outlet, noting that she liked that the two hearts faced one another, which she compared to her relationship with Grainge. “I am so excited. [It’s] because I’m marrying Elliot, I know that sounds cheesy — but he is the man of my dreams.”In addition to her traditional ceremony dress, Sofia collaborated with the atelier to make unique pieces for both her rehearsal dinner and wedding reception.
