WEDDING DRESSES
Kitty has been modelling for Dolce & Gabbana since 2017 and was even named the Italian fashion house's global ambassador last year.

Sharing the designs with their 26m Instagram followers, Dolce & Gabbana proudly said the hand-made dresses had been designed exclusively to celebrate the "beauty of the bride".
Alongside her white lace gown, Kitty modelled a light blue strapless gown embroidered with pink flowers and featuring a fitted bodice.
On top of this, the bride could have easily passed for Grace Kelly in an emerald green cap-sleeved dress with voluminous floral skirt and ribbon belt.
For her fourth gown, Kitty chose a highly decorative white-and-green bespoke dress which had a lace underlady and and a multitude of fake flowers over the bodice.
As for her last dress, the bride went out with a bang with a gold sequin frock with a scoop neckline which Kitty offset with a matching jewel necklace.
