Hilton, 31, looked picture perfect on her wedding day in the floor length, Valentino haute couture wedding dress. “Ever since I was a little girl I wanted Valentino to design my wedding dress. Valentino is the definition of timeless elegance, I don’t think there’s another couture house like it,” Hilton told Harper’s Bazaar.

Hilton worked with designers Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli for six months to perfect her dream gown, which featured a balloon skirt, with a 3-meter-long train, and a lace bodice, complete with long sleeves and a high neckline. “I went through every look from their collections over the last 10 years. I studied the archives, and I just sent notes about details I liked – a certain sleeve, a high neckline,” Hilton said.
