She was on the hunt for cocktail dresses uk
When we bumped into model and Mary Charteris at London Fashion Week last September, she had just got engaged to The Big Pink's Robbie Furze and revealed that she was on the hunt for cocktail dresses uk
.With eccentric heiress and fashion collector Daphne Guinness for an aunt, we assumed that she wouldn't be going down the classic Jasper Conran route, but who could have imagined that Pam Hogg's collection of sheer catsuits, with only minute, strategically-placed panels to preserve the wearer's modesty, would have inspired a wedding gown?
But inspire they did, and the Earl of Wemyss's daughter revealed a lot more than your average bride as she tied the knot in front of family and friends on September 1 at Stanway House, the family's pile in Gloucestershire. Rumours are circulating that Charteris, 24, gave Hogg complete creative control over the gown, and did not see the result until the eve of her big day.

Yellow-haired Pam Hogg could be seen dutifully ruffling the tiered, netted train as model and DJ Mary approached the church arm in arm with her father, her navel on show as satin, triangle-shaped sections patchworked upon the transparent bodice concealed her shoulder blades, breasts and hips - just about.
The assembled guests - a fashion-centric crowd including models Poppy Delevingne and Georgia Jagger, singers Florence Welch and Lily Allen and actress Jaime Winstone - as well as Aunt Daphne, seemingly didn't bat an eyelid at her less than traditional look. Conversely, Charteris' white satin Nicholas Kirkwood heels and fine veil provided standard bridal finishing touches.

"Wild, wonderful, magical mayhem..." tweeted Poppy Delevingne after the big day, although it's not clear whether she was referring to the occasion or the bridal gown...
