If astrology is your jam, why not make it the star of your bridal style? Star and moon details have been popular wedding fashion choices for a few seasons, but the otherworldly celestial trend has, well, skyrocketed in 2022. 

Stylist and editor Julia McEwen, who got married in 2018, was ahead of the trend. She knew she wanted a unique wedding look, and considered going for a pink wedding dress—a fuchsia Oscar de la Renta she spotted on the runway. But when the dress wouldn’t be ready in time, McEwen kept searching. In a fun turn of events, McEwen ended up finding her wedding dress via my Instagram. During a photo shoot, I posted a behind-the-scenes look at a dress: the sparkling star-embellished Orion gown by Watters. McEwen says when she saw this celestial wedding dress, it was love at first sight.

 

Scarlet O’Neil PhotographyJulia McEwen dazzled on her wedding day wearing the star-embellished Orion wedding dress by bridal wear brand Watters.

“Stars are my favourite shape, and my favourite colour is sparkle,” says McEwen. “My champagne tulle gown was scattered with hundreds of silver and gold embellished stars. At the time there weren’t really any celestial wedding dresses on the market, so I was drawn to the fact this was a rare bird of a gown. Fun fact: a few months after my wedding, Bethany from The Real Housewives of New York City, wore the same dress on the finale of the show.”

McEwen’s celestial wedding dress dictated the vibe for of the rest of her bridal styling. She accessorized her updo with two star-motif headbands by Jennifer Behr, and wore dangling crescent moon earrings and a star lariat necklace. 

McEwen’s wedding dress is still available, and has become a best seller of the Watters bridal wear brand (shop it below!). If you want a star-spangled gown, there are now many designs to choose from, as well as a host of charming celestial-themed accessories.
