Confirmed: Blair Waldorf’s Wedding Dress Designer Is Vera Wang!

Nov 16, 2011 @ 9:30 am

Who designed the wedding dress for Blair Waldorf (played by Leighton Meester)? The CW just confirmed to InStyle.com that the designer is none other than Vera Wang! The gown is a piece from the designer’s fall 2010 collection, which Wang describes as a soft A-line gown with multi-layered Chantilly lace applique and a horsehair sash at the natural waist, and it was originally shown with an elbow-length overlay. And the Meester-Wang match-up is fitting, as the Gossip Girl star is the face of Vera Wang’s Lovestruck fragrance. As for why the show’s stylist Eric Daman picked the dress, he told InStyle.com: “It’s phenomenal. It has that kind of bravado and gorgeousness and is also subtle and beautiful.” Tell us: What do you think?
