 Janet Mbugua’s look during her wedding was criticized as she decided to go sans bra. But that could not take away how amazing her wedding dress was, especially from the back.

Celebrity fashion stylist Annabel Onyango did not disappoint with a basic, off-the-rack white ball gown dress .The Citizen TV fashion panelist dared to bare in a backless Galina Tatarinova dress that showed off her assets but remained modest with the ball gown bottom.

4.Vanessa Kiuna

Vanessa Kiuna’s figure-hugging illusion gown by Russian designer Galia Lahav almost gave the JCC congregants a heart attack.

But she defended the dress in an interview with Drum Magazine saying thatI am not a pastor and I am young. The dress was actually not so risqué-the areas people think were exposed actually had material. It is just an illusion. I do not understand why people were so offended. If my dad was a lawyer, a doctor, or politician would they have talked about me that way? My dress was very appropriate and everything that needed to be covered was covered. Even my parents thought it was really beautiful.”

5.Wambui Kamiru

The wedding came as a surprise with only a selected few getting to know about it. And the dress was even a bigger surprise given that she bypassed an expensive gown and dazzled in a simple number despite the fact that she could afford it.

6. Smriti Vidyarthi

The very private NTV siren got married a few Christmases ago to Aman and she stunned in a traditional red sari. While Christians wear white to indicate purity, Indians wear red to indicate love and passion.

 

7.Wahu
