Princess Diana's niece Lady Kitty Spencer weds fashion billionaire in Italy

The eldest niece of the late Princess Diana, Lady Kitty Spencer, wed South African businessman Michael Lewis over the weekend in a lavish ceremony in Italy.

For the big day, Dolce & Gabbana designed a number of custom-made exclusive Alta Moda dresses for the bride.

Kitty’s wedding gown was a classic Victorian-inspired high-neck design with long sleeves, which was delicately crafted with white lace.

Sharing a photo of the stunning bride to the official Dolce & Gabbana Instagram page, the caption read, “A glimpse at the #AltaModa gowns created exclusively by Dolce&Gabbana for @kitty.spencer on the most important day of her life.”

The bride herself also shared the same photo on Instagram thanking designer duo Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana for designing the gown.

“Thank you from the bottom of my heart Domenico & Stefano for creating a gown beyond my wildest dreams for the most important day of my life There are no words that could ever express my gratitude,” Kitty, who has been an ambassador for Dolce & Gabanna for a number of years, said.

The bride, who has been very private about her relationship with her now-husband, also shared a photo with her “armore” on Instagram. The groom wore a white suit, with a black bow tie and black loafers.
