Lebanese designer Elie Saab made the bridal gown for today’s royal wedding in Jordan, a spokeswoman for the haute couture outfit says.
Jordan’s royal court kept the dress’ designer a closely guarded secret, and wouldn’t comment even after bride Rajwa Alseif arrived at the wedding ceremony in a sleek gown with long sleeves, an asymmetrical neckline and a flowing train.
Marilyne Mossino, a spokeswoman for Elie Saab, confirms that the Lebanese fashion icon was behind the wedding dress.
Mossino said Britain’s Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, also wore Elie Saab, an elegant ready-to-wear pink gown with a high neck and elaborate embellishments.
