Saat memilih baju pengantin, semua wanita terpengaruh oleh seseorang. Bisa dari tren saat itu, bisa dari busana pengantin seleb, atau dari inspirasi wanita-wanita di masa lalu. Dan ternyata, tak semua gaun pengantin idaman itu harus klasik dan tradisional. Terkadang gaun modern pun banyak peminatnya. Oleh Joanna Douglas, Yahoo Shine Senior Fashion and Beauty Editor

Grace Kelly, 1956
When the American actress wed Monaco's Prince Rainier she wore, in effect, a piece of Hollywood. Her elaborate gown was made of 90 yards of tulle, 25 yards of silk taffeta, antique rose-point lace, and pearls, which took Helen Rose, a costume designer at MGM (which gave the dress to Kelly as a gift) and three dozen seamstresses a total of six weeks to create. Many have said that the dress may have inspired Kate Middleton's own wedding gown.

Elizabeth Taylor as Kay Banks in "Father of the Bride," 1950
The same costume designer created this elaborate layered gown for the classic film. Taylor loved the design so much that she had Rose design a very similar dress for her (first) real-life wedding to Conrad Hilton later that year.

Gwen Stefani, 2002
The singer is well-known for her style, but made more fashion headlines than usual when she donned an ombre pink John Galliano dress for her marriage to Gavin Rossdale in London. Stefani was so in love with the dress that, two weeks later, when the couple had a second ceremony in Los Angeles, Sdecided she wore it again. She later donated it to the Victoria & Albert Museum, saying it was a "piece of art" and the dress has become an inspiration for brides seeking out blush-colored gowns.

Leighton Meester as Blair Waldorf in "Gossip Girl," 2012
For Queen B's second wedding, she had no trouble finding "something blue." This icy beaded Elie Saab was a stunning sendoff on the final episode of the series when, at long last, Blair married Chuck Bass.

Keira Knightley, 2013
In perhaps te coolest move ever, Knightley pulled a pretty, knee-length, tulle Chanel dress out of her closet for her wedding to musician James Righton. She had already worn it publicly to a BAFTA Awards after-party in 2008, but that didn't stop her from recycling the dress for her big day, when she accessorized it with a cropped Chanel tweed jacket and black Wayfarer sunglasses. She later wore it again to a gala and supposedly ruined it with red wine, but at least she made some great memories in the dress!

Princess Diana, 1981
The Princess of Wales broke royal wedding records for her gown's unforgettable 25-foot train. The whole dress, designed by David and Elizabeth Emanuel, was a lot of look, but it suited the times. The ivory silk taffeta and antique lace skirt was filled up with layers of petticoats, while puffed sleeves and a flounce collar embellished the top.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi, 2008
The couple wore Zac Posen creations that perfectly suited their personal styles. The hilarious TV host chose a white shirt, vest, and pants, while Rossi opted for a pale pink tulle gown.

Queen Victoria, 1840
Ever wonder why women wear white down the aisle? This wide-necked gown the queen wore to marry Price Albert is responsible for the still-followed trend.

Kate Middleton, 2011
An estimated 3 billion people tuned in to watch Middleton marry Prince William and become the Duchess of Cambridge in the insanely hyped wedding. But the real reason people were watching was to see the dress!, of course After loads of rumors, Middleton entered Westminster Abbey wearing a stunning Alexander McQueen corset dress with a lace bodice by Sarah Burton.

Natalie Portman as Queen Padmé Amidala in "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones," 2002
Their secret nuptial may have only been witnessed by droids R2-D2 and C-3PO, but that hasn't stopped legions of Star Wars super fans from copying Queen Padmé Amidala lacy gown and headpiece for their own marriage ceremonies. Seriously.

Jacqueline Kennedy, 1953
Jacqueline Bouvie reportedly had wanted a simple dress, but she married soon-to-be-president John F. Kennedy in a very traditional gown to appease his family. Ann Lowe designed the cap-sleeved, full-skirted, silk taffeta dress with a portrait neckline. Jackie accessorized with a pair of white gloves and her grandmother's full veil.

Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw in "Sex and the City: The Movie," 2008
In true Carrie form, she wore an over-the-top Vivienne Westwood gown and feather headpiece for her highly anticipated wedding to Mr. Big. Unfortunately she was stood up, so viewers saw her hitting him with the bouquet instead of walking down the aisle.

Marilyn Monroe, 1954
For her second wedding, the blond bombshell wore a dark skirt suit with a white fur color to wed baseball player Joe DiMaggio. The toned-down look was fitting for a city hall ceremony.

Michelle Dockery as Lady Mary Crawley on "Downton Abbey," 2012
The character's drop-waist, Swarovski crystal and pearl-encrusted gown took eight weeks to make, and was the most expensive costume on the PBS series, costing a sky-high $200,000. The series, along with 2013's "The Great Gatsby" film spawned a mini 1920s fashion revival.
