It finally happened, the fat lady sang, hell froze over, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt got married. Our condolences to the devastated men and women around the globe.
Of course, all of us in the fashion world have been wondering what the Unbroken director would wear on her big day. As predicted, the answer was a custom gown by her friend and frequent favorite designer Donatella Versace. As expected, it featured something slightly off-kilter. But never in a million years would we have guessed that it would be embroidered drawings from her six kids!
It's no mystery that the Jolie-Pitt brood is the center of this couple's life, and rightly so. We expected the Maleficent star and her 12 Years a Slave actor hubby to incorporate their family into the fanfare. But featuring their artwork on her fashion is a very bold choice. The colorful embroidery breaks up the otherwise classic ballgown, giving it a slightly too playful feel. Black or ivory thread might have been a better choice.
And yet the devoted mother had a world famous designer create the most one-of-a-kind couture we've ever seen. Love or hate the look, that is a total, "Gotta Have It" move. What's your take?
