The Inside Scoop on Ivanka Trump’s Wedding Gown and Hair

While Ivanka Trump looked no further than her own jewelry collection for her something sparkling for her wedding to Jared Kushner this weekend, the heiress sought out famed wedding gown designer Vera Wang for her “something new.” Ivanka and Vera Wang worked closely to create the perfect couture wedding gown inspired by the gown Princess Grace Kelly wore to wed Prince Rainier III of Monaco in 1956. The result — a hand made lace gown fit for a princess. To complement her majestic gown, Ivanka paid long time hair stylist Julien Farel a visit 10 days prior to the wedding for a trim and “Park Avenue Blonde” highlights. And though Wang was still putting the finishing touches on Ivanka’s wedding gown just days before the ceremony, the heiress was “really calm” according to Suelyn Farel, whose husband Julien cut about an inch and half off of Ivanka’s blonde tresses. “She really just wanted to make sure she had a fabulous trim so her hair would be able to style well the day of the wedding,” Suelyn tells PEOPLE. Watch as Vera Wang describes the work and inspiration behind Ivanka’s couture wedding gown. Tell us: What do you think of Ivanka Trump’s wedding gown?–reporting by Isley Kasica

Wow when I saw this dress I was amazed! I wish I could afford a dress like this when I get married. It is absolutely beautiful, so original. LOVE IT!

Deborah, Are you one of those people who must find something negative with everything, even perfection? “Oh, well,” back at you, girl! I only wish the young women of today would take a look at this classy bride and get a clue.

Beautiful!!!

She is a great role model for other young women. Could she be ANY MORE DIFFERENT from Paris Hilton? The Hiltons need to learn some parenting skills from the Trumps! :)

The gown was beautiful as was she. What a classy and smart lady. I am so sick of seeing celebrities getting married half naked practically falling out of the dress.
Her parents did a wonderful job.

Absolutely beautiful! Simple, but not plain. Modest, but not puritan.

Joan on October 27th, 2009

Absolutely stunning. Breathtaking. Ilove it

AMAZING!!

Stunning! Even though this girl was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, she seems to have a very level head on her shoulders. She does not live her life in the press and actually (gasps) works for a living. Instead of Lindsey, The Kardasians or any other famous-for-no-reason “celebs”, I think she is a great role model for young ladies.
