The dress: last-minute and off the rack

Parker bought the very first dress she tried on: an off-the-rack black gown by Chelsea designer Morgane le Fay. The bodice was simple with thin straps and a scoop neck, while the skirt puffed into layers of ruffles. She chose black to keep attention off the couple, not to make a bold fashion statement.

Details, traditions and legacy

Her “something blue” were teal velvet Robert Clergerie heels from Barneys; she also borrowed a handkerchief and accepted an old coin. Though she has said she’d “white it up” today—favoring a cream, Oscar de la Renta–style silhouette—the black gown helped open the door for other celebrities to wear nontraditional dresses down the aisle.
