What did Charli XCX wear for her Sicilian wedding?

The singer’s gown was a custom ivory silk chiffon slip by New York designer Danielle Frankel. Bias-cut with delicate spaghetti straps, it featured a contouring internal bustier visible beneath a transparent overlay. Ribbons of chiffon draped across the bodice and back, while the elongated train was embroidered with organza petals and baroque pearls. She paired the look with white silk stiletto Kennedy pumps from the same label and minimal jewellery, letting the gown’s ethereal detail shine.

The look was completed with a simple bouquet of eucalyptus, baby blue and gypsophila. George Daniel matched the understated elegance in a light suit without a tie, paired with black Oxford shoes.


Who attended Charli XCX and George Daniel’s second wedding?

The guest list was starry and happening. Among those spotted were Troye Sivan, presenter Amelia Dimoldenberg, influencer Devon Lee Carlson, and avant-pop artist Shygirl. The 1975’s frontman Matty Healy, a close friend of Daniel, also attended alongside fiancée Gabbriette Bechtel.

The intimate ceremony took place in the small coastal village of Scopello, particularly known for its dramatic cliffs and historic buildings, providing a perfect backdrop to the celebration.


How does this dress compare to her first wedding look?

In July, Charli married Daniel at Hackney Town Hall in London wearing Vivienne Westwood’s Nova Cora mini dress. That outfit, with its sweetheart neckline and corseted bodice, channelled classic bridal chic. She accessorised it with a short veil and Jimmy Choo heels for a simple yet classy nod to tradition.

The Sicilian gown, by contrast, leaned fully into contemporary bridal design, focussing on transparency, layering and statement embellishment. Fashion insiders called it another defining moment for Danielle Frankel, who has quickly become a favourite for high-profile brides.
