Poppy Delevingne wore a years-old Chanel gown for her London wedding: fab or fug?

I wasn’t entirely sure who Poppy Delevingne was beyond “Cara’s sister,” but I guess she’s worthy of a post, especially for her wedding. Ladies love weddings! For the record, Poppy is an English model/muse/socialite/celebrity friend, in the grand tradition of “famous for being famous.” Poppy is tight with designer Matthew Williamson and Sienna Miller. Got it.

So, Poppy married her “long-term partner” James Cook on Friday. They happily posed for paparazzi photos, which always nice. First of all, is it just me or does James Cook look like he could be a not-so-distant cousin of Benedict Cumberbatch? It’s something about his face. It’s got an air of Cumby. Poppy’s maid of honor was her little sister Cara, and the third Delevingne sister, Chloe, was also in attendance but not in the bridal party. Chloe is the knocked up one in blue.

Both bride and maid of honor wore Chanel. Poppy’s gown is actually something we’ve seen before – it’s a years-old Chanel design that Blake Lively wore in 2011, to the premiere of The Green Lantern – go here to see. Poppy’s Chanel looks more intricate, especially with the bead work. So, it’s a years-old design that has been revamped a bit. I really don’t care for Cara’s dress though. The bride definitely got the better Chanel! As it should be.

Since I’m missing the bride gene, I guess I have no patience for the minutiae of the wedding details. I really like Poppy’s bouquet, and I like the simplicity of her veil. I don’t mind that she wore her hair down. Her new husband looks pleased and proud. All around, this seems like it was a beautiful wedding.
