By the numbers
Designing the Custom Gown
Roberts sought a vintage-inspired aesthetic for her wedding dress, specifically requesting a tea-stained color rather than pure white to achieve an "antique ghost doll" look. Lhuillier utilized 25 yards of silk chiffon dyed in a custom color named "antique rose," a reference to Roberts's middle name. The gown featured an intricate corset with boning, a layered skirt with a slit, and a removable shawl accented with ecru French lace. The ensemble also included a chapel-length veil and a lace voilette.
Production and After-Party Attire
The construction of the main gown required approximately nine months and nearly 1,000 hours of work. The design was created with convertible elements, allowing for five different looks throughout the evening, including a strapless option once the shawl is removed. For the after-party, Roberts chose an archival two-piece look from Lhuillier’s fall 2004 collection, featuring a black Chantilly lace corset top and a tea-length silk organza skirt.
