One year ago today
Kim Kardashian and
Kanye West
tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in Florence, Italy. It was an iconic
moment in pop culture (the most anticipated "I Dos" since the royal
wedding), on social media (most liked Instagram of all time) and in the
fashion world.
Because after
months of speculation over
every aspect of the bridal gown, the style world uttered a collective
"Yaaas!" upon seeing the lace Givenchy gown created by the pair's close
friend
Riccardo Tisci.

Probably Kim's dreamiest look to date, the custom-made dress
featured handmade lace work, sheer paneling and a silk cathedral veil
that created a truly swoon-worthy finish. Props to the rapper for not
getting weak in the knees when she was walking down the aisle in this
ensemble!

So how did this incredible collaboration come to be? Well, it was
quite simple really. "In the beginning, I met her because of my respect
for Kanye, and then I liked her a lot and we became friends," Tisci
told
Details. "When they got married, they asked me to dress them. They say, 'You've always been with us. You've been a real friend.'"
Riccardo—who once called Kim the "[Marilyn] Monroe of our age"—also
shared that he got a lot of flak over his relationship with the power
couple. But thanks to moments like the wedding: "Every designer is dying
to dress her now."
But really, when it comes to opinions, the only one that really matters is the bride's. So what did Kim think of her gown?
"I
am so excited for how my dress turned out, it is gorgeous. Everything
is so perfect. It is probably the most beautiful dress I have seen in my
life. It is really a dream come true," she shared on
Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
And so, this fashion moment lived happily ever after. Just like Kimye.
