Oprah had to change her Royal wedding dress at the last minute and here's why
Nightmare


Nightmare
Looking at Oprah arrive with the other Royal wedding guests, looking chic in a light pink Stella McCartney dress, you would never guess that the Oscar-winning actor had major dress drama the night before.
You see, she was originally meant to wear another dress, which was beige, because she realised that it looked white when photographed, which of course is a major faux pas at a normal wedding, let alone a Royal wedding viewed by millions around the globe.
Taking to Instagram after the wedding, Oprah explained, 'Realized Friday morning the beige dress I was planning to wear to Royal ceremony would photograph too “white” for a wedding.'
So with less than a day to spare before the big day, she got in touch with Stella McCartney's team, who manage to turn around this bespoke number in one night. ONE NIGHT.
As for the hat, it was Oprah's own, and it just happened to match the dress perfectly, 'Hat is vintage @philiptreacy been in my closet since 2005 with new feathers.'
In case you weren't aware, Stella McCartney also created Meghan Markle's second wedding dress, as well as Amal's amazing yellow dress.
