Kim Kardashian’s Vera Wang Wedding Dress(es!) ~ Our Hair & Makeup Prediction for her Big Day

Thursday, July 7th, 2011


It is rumoured that the larger-than-life Kim Kardashian is having not one but TWO perfect wedding dresses designed by the amazing Vera Wang. She has met with the designer in New York and again in LA. Vera Wang was also the designer for Kim’s sister Khloe’s dress for her wedding to Lamar Odom in 2009 so they are already well known to each other. Khloe has said of the designer working with her sister – ‘I love her, and I feel like when you think of weddings, you think of Vera Wang. I think it would be a perfect fit”, according to the Daily Mail.


Below are a few images that are predictions for Kim’s wedding day dress(es!) :)


While Kim is sweating it out in the gym with her TWO personals trainers to fit into her TWO gorgeous dresses, let’s take a moment to imagine what hair and makeup look she may choose for her big day.


Kim is famous for her smoky eyes. luscious long lashes and signature nude lips. She is also a big fan of the NARS blush in the amazing peachy-pink colour “Orgasm”.


Here are a couple of gorgeous hair and makeup styles which we predict may be her chosen wedding day look:-


Glowing, nude bridal makeup with a soft smokey eye, understated yet elegant and classic-

 

Or will she choose a more 1950s pinup girl style makeup with bold lips and more natural eyes like below? She has mentioned her bridal look will have a 50s twist so our bets are on a look like this :)


For her wedding day hair will she choose an elegant upstyle like below…?


Or a glamourous retro downstyle..??

 

Only time will tell but us girls at the Powder Room are eagerly awaiting the first images of the blushing bride as she walks down the aisle any day now!

What a beautiful bride! Preeya Ramritu our  stunning Indian bride was married on the 24th January and our taented stylist Tracie looked after Preeya’s hair and make up on her special day.


Preeya’s long gorgeous hair framed her face perfectly with soft curls. This half up half down up Wedding hairstyle is perfect it you would like to wear you hair down but want to have more security in knowing it will last longer.  Hair was set in hot rollers, then gently tonged using a thermal setting spray.  Working around the part hair was pinned softly in individual sections creating some height on top of the head.


The eyes are always the focal point of a Indian brides’s make up Preeya’s make up  was absolutely flawless with shimmering shades of silver and smokey purples and of course lots of luscious lashes!  We love using Laura Mercier, “Metallic creme eye colour in Alloy” under eye shadows to help the shadow stay all night!  One of our favourites brands of foundation to use slightly darker skin tones is “Mac” face and body, can’t live without it!


Preeya chose to wear Powder Room’s “Lips with Love” Lipstick in “Unforgettable”.  Visit our Powder Room store, to check out more colours to say I do!

Sharon send us the most lovely testimonial:

“My hair and makeup stylists from The Powder Room did an amazing job making me look and feel stunning. When I look back at the photos there is nothing at all that I could change. I went into my trial with a vision in my head but a little apprehensive that I had nothing on paper, but the two lovely ladies were able to make my vision a reality, I was most impressed. The Powder Room offered impeccable service through the entire process, right from very first contact, and I would unquestionably recommend them.”
