Newly married Lily Cooper finally reveals the Karl Lagerfeld-designed gown that she wore after her church ceremony wedding.
Chanel fans around the world who couldnt wait to catch a glimpse of Lily Allens Chanel wedding gown - which she was thought to be wearing to walk down the aisle - were disappointed when pictures emerged of her leaving the St James the Great Church last Saturday wearing a creation by French designer Delphine Manivet.
Double joy for Lily Allen on her wedding day
Of course, theres no doubt that the newly blessed Mrs Cooper looked resplendent in the empire-line gown and 1920s-style veil, but in the few steps from the carriage to the church door, we expected Allen to stage her very own haute couture catwalk show.
However, the retired pop star turned fashion entrepreneur has finally revealed a glimpse of the Chanel gown which she later changed into as she hosted a reception in the grounds of her country cottage in the village of Cranham, near Stroud wiith new husband Sam.

A guest in attendance confirmed to the Telegraph that Lily did indeed don the gown designed by Chanel creative director Karl Lagerfeld, which stayed true to Lilys love for vintage style, with its voluminous bell sleeves and an empire-line cut in sheer white chiffon.
The Chanel website , where the image of Lily during a fitting was uploaded, also revealed a sketch of the fairytale design.
Take a good look and sigh, ladies.
