Of course, most of them dress in predictable Calvin Klein or Versace, which while beautiful gets kind of old.
Behold! Dita Von Teese had all her wedding gear done by Vivienne Westwood (large photos at the link, all worksafe) - I've got to give her major points on choosing a not-run-of-the-mill designer.

Sorry if I'm a bit effusive, I just think VW gets short shrift in the U.S., and she's one of my favorite designers. Shutting up now, to work on some sewing of my own...
