British actress Keira Knightly has revealed she was the “worst bridesmaid in the world” at her brother Caleb’s wedding to Kerry Nixon. The couple got married in Scotland last month, and Keira who is usually quite graceful – she’s been on a red carpet or two before after all – clumsily spilt food on her bridesmaid’s dress and accidentally ripped it!!
The 26-year old beauty said: “I don’t normally spill things down myself but every single drink went down that dress. Oh Keira, it makes us so happy to know that we’re not the only ones being clumsy once in a while.
The happy couple apparently had a curry buffet at their wedding and the curry went all the way down Keira’s dress, which she then got stuck in the toilet door making it rip down the back.
Oh the horror! Such a shame because the dress looks beautiful – as does the bride’s gown!

We’ve featured a few frock horrors in our time, but we think this one really does take the crown and if you’re faint hearted we advise you to look away now (or click here to be taken to some nice wedding dresses).
The picture, orginally posted on Wedinator a site dedicated to showcasing wedding photo disasters from around the world, shows an unnamed woman, believed to be Russian, getting out of a limousine wearing a white dress. Unfortunately the top half of which consists of two small, strategically positioned semicircles.
We just hope she didn’t choose to get married in a church.
We’re not adverse to the black wedding dress trend and we’ve found some gorgeous frocks for our gallery. However, a line has to be drawn at some point and we think this frock definitely crosses it.
No one can deny that the style of this dress is nice. It’s figure hugging around all the right places and then sprawls out into an A-line skirt. However, the problem we have in the PVC element of it, which we think should remain firmly in the bedroom for the wedding night (if that’s your sort of thing).
We’re not sure quite how many people would risk this look, but then again we could just be being prudish.

We’ve heard of meringue wedding dresses but this one really takes the biscuit, and not in a sweet way either. The never ending wedding dress has 1000′s of yards of fabric, which is more than enough to clothe a small army.
We don’t even want to think about how long that train would be if it wasn’t designed in a pin tuck style. And the weight of this frock doesn’t even bear thinking about.
However, we’ve said our bit so now it’s over to you. Tell us if we’re making a fabric mountain out of a beautiful molehill or if you agree, in the comment box below.
We’ve been talking about wacky and weird dresses this week in the lead up to Halloween, but we think we’ve definitely saved the best till last here.
Those of you who are a little bit squeamish may want to look away now as these two wedding dresses are made completely from contraceptives.
The frocks, which were designed to celebrate World Aids Day, aren’t intended for human wear, but that hasn’t stopped many people complaining about them.
If you were brave enough to show up in a get up such as this on your day, you could kiss goodbye to that honeymoon baby. Well you wouldn’t want to waste them would you?
Keeping in with today’s weird and wonderful wedding dress theme, we couldn’t resist sharing this frock with you.
We’ll probably never see Beyonce’s real wedding dress from her marriage to Jay-Z but we hope the pop starlet didn’t turn up in a similar number to the one she wore to perform at the 2009 BET Awards in June.
Not only does this look incredibly uncomfortable, but we can’t imagine how our groom would even get near us.

Oh dear…what on earth’s happened to David Fielden! One minute he’s designing some of our favourite fairytale gowns, the next he’s exhibiting this perculiar creation. A cross between a snow suit and Orville, it has one of the weirdest ‘veils’ I’ve ever seen and is significantly shorter than even the most daring mini wedding gowns out there at the moment. And of course I know that couture dresses are only meant to inspire…but would you seriously want your gown to be a homage to this?
Although we’ve been celebrating the more positive aspects of high fashion and its influence on bridalwear today, there’s no denying that when it gets it wrong, it gets it so extravagantly wrong. And here comes our old friend Ian Stuart with something that’s excessive in all the wrong ways.
The dress, shown recently at Sposa Italia in Milan, has a certain orthopedic quality to it that is not in any way aided by the bows that look to me a bit like Christmas tree decorations. What do you think?
I’ve seen some really rather impressive exmples of 70s-style, hippie chic wedding dresses lately, but you’ve guessed it – this is not one of them. Whatever Martin McCrea was thinking when he designed Style no. 381 – Sonoran Star, I’ve got to admit it’s lost on me, as I don’t associate cowboy hats, white boots or lashings of arm lace with bridal style.
Picking a ‘St. Pukey dress for Frock Horrors almost feels like cheating, but it’s been at least a year since bridalwave last visited their site, and today I couldn’t resist another look to see what ‘unique creations’ they’ve managed to dream up while we’ve been averting our eyes.
As ever, the designs on offer are not for the blushing bride, but rather for the bride who wants to make her guests blush with the decadence and excess of it all. Some of the dresses are genuinely stylish in a highly embellished sort of way, but as ever there are also some real uggers and (thought it was difficult to choose) I think this one is the worst offender. Cut-out is never a good look for a bride (IMHO) and as for that train…well, you’ll either love it or hate it. Tell me which it’s to be below!
Just as I thought I was getting used to the idea of floral-print wedding dresses (and actually starting to like them) I caught sight of this monstrosity and was reminded why the look went so far out of style in the first place.
Bright red on white mesh is never a good look at the best of times, so the choice of poppies on this meringue is extremely ill-advised. I’m afraid that if you disagree with my style note on this one and actaully want to buy it I can’t help you: I have no idea who designed it. But if you’d like to see an all-over floral dress done properly, check out Carolina Herrera’s latest collections.
Let me know what you think over the jump
This dress has taken the term ‘oversized bow’ at its most literal, and is proof that where rear-end decoration is concerned, you most definitely CAN have too much of a good thing.
The decoration looks to me more like a pillow that’s been tied around the middle with string, and I have no idea what’s going on with the red spots. Are they roses? It’s a very odd place to find them, if so…
Or is this just an exciting and avant-garde shape that I can’t appreiate yet?
vote after the jump!
Leaving aside the ‘brave’ colour choice for a moment here, the first thing that comes to mind when looking at this dress is a particularly cheap sort of quilt – the sort that give you static electric shocks when you turn over. There’s just something a bit wrong about the fabric, which is not helped by the addition of those rhinestones or indeed the all-over ruching effect that causes the eye to somersault nauseatingly from one spot to the next.
Can you tell I’m not a fan of this dress? Thought so. But it’s so out there that somebody’s got to like it, and perhaps that person is you.
