wedding dress designer Vera Wag announced her split from her husband of 23 years yesterday, but do the dresses she designs put a curse on those who wear them?
In 1993 Mariah Carey wed Tommy Mottola on June 5th in a Vera Wang sweetheart gown which came completed with a 27-foot train. Marital bliss didn’t last for long, as the couple divorced 4 years later.
Jessica Simpson donned a Vera Wang dress in 2002 to marry Nick Lachey. The couple even had a reality show called ‘The Newlyweds’, but soon divorced after three years together.
Jennifer Lopez married her third husband Marc Anthony in Vera Wang back in 2004, but announced their divorce in 2011.
In April 2005 Sophia Bush married co-star Chad Michael Murray, but their marriage was very short lived and ended five months later in September 2005.
Avril Lavigne wore a beautiful strapless organza gown when she wed Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley in 2006. They divorced three years later in 2009.
Elin Nordegren married Tiger Woods in October 2004, but after six years of marriage, and amongst rumours of infidelity on Tiger’s part, the pair split in 2010.
Kim Kardashian famously filed for divorce from Kris Humphries just 72 days after they married. She wore a custom made Vera Wang dress when they wed in August of 2011.
Heidi Klum married Seal in an ivory Vera Wang gown that included and empire waist line and Chantilly lace, but the pair shocked the world when announcing their split earlier in the year.
There is hope for any future brides dreaming of wearing Vera Wang to their wedding, many of those who wore her dresses, such as Khloe Kardashian, Victoria Beckham and Ivanka Trump are still happily married.
