Solange and her wedding party
Solange Knowles wed Alan
Ferguson in New Orleans over the weekend. The couple stayed true to
their laid-back style by bucking traditional wedding practices,
especially in the fashion department. Ever the trend-setter, here are
the six ways that Beyonce's little sis made the nuptials all her own (and you can too).
1. Modern Modesty: While many brides will soon opt for Amal’s all-encompassing circle train
or tend to follow Kate Middleton’s modest long-sleeve wedding dress
style, Solange’s high-fashion flourish was a cape. For her formal
wedding portraits, the bride wore a high-neck, floor-length custom gown
by Humberto Leon for Kenzo with a matching cape that gave the whole look
a very regal vibe.
2. The Bride Wore…a Jumpsuit: For
her actual ceremony, Solange wore a low-cut cream-colored jumpsuit by
Stephane Rolland. “She has always had a very independent style, and
brought her chic fashion sense to her wedding,” says celebrity wedding
planner Mindy Weiss.
“This look helps her establish her own style, away from her sister’s.”
Similar to the dress for her portraits, her wedding-day jumpsuit
included a cape that fell off her shoulders and split in the middle to
reveal her back.

3. An All-White Wedding: Following
in her friend Kelly Rowland’s footsteps, Solange and her groom asked
their guests to wear all white to the wedding. “That everyone did it and
made the effort to wear white, helps bring everyone together,” says
Weiss.
4. Allowing Bridesmaids to Pick Their Own Dress: Solange,
like many brides today, allowed her bridesmaids to choose a white dress
that reflected their own style. (Even Janelle Monae eschewed her usual
tuxedo look for a feminine frock!) “When bridesmaids are allowed to pick
their own dress they are more comfortable because it’s a style that
they feel comfortable in, and they feel good in it,” Weiss adds.
