Hooray! We finally get to gawp at the dress that Sophie Hunter wore to marry Benedict Cumberbatch on Valentine’s Day.
A photo of 37-year-old Sophie getting measured up for her custom Valentino dress appeared on the designer’s Instagram earlier today, and boy is it one hell of a dress! It’s silver, for gawd’s sake!
The caption on the photo read: “Beautiful Sophie Hunter with Creative Directors Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli prepping her couture dress for her March wedding to Benedict Cumberbatch. #magicmoment #sophiehunter #benedictcumberbatch photographed by #AnnieLeibovitz”.
(Not sure why they said her wedding was in March, but whatever…)
And if you look closely you can see Sophie’s little baby bump under all that silver lace. Cute!
The designers of Sophie’s dress have described it as a “high-waisted medieval gown with high neck and long sleeves.”
Sophie said about the gown: “It feels very much of nature, and it's so detailed and extraordinary that I'm still trying to get my head around how beautiful it is."
