Lauren Sanchez Bezos has embraced her ‘her inner Hollywood siren’ by opting for ‘classic lingerie styling’ for her final wedding party, according to a style expert.
The newly-wedded Mrs Bezos, 55, could not stop beaming as she stepped out of the Aman Hotel in Venice alongside her new Amazon billionaire husband Jeff Bezos while heading to a post-wedding event on Saturday evening.
The newlyweds threw a Dolce Notte (Italian for sweet night) themed event where guests donned classy evening wear which consisted of lingerie and pyjama-inspired ensembles.
Lauren – eager to be the star of the show at her nuptials – dazzled in a head pleated rose pink Atelier Versace gown designed by Donatella Versace herself, according to Vogue.
The show-stopping ballgown was made of silk chiffon and had a bodice which was hand embroidered with an array of rose gold, bronze, and gold Swarovski crystals.
The former journalist paired this look with a black jewel-encrusted clutch bag which read: ‘Mrs. Bezos’ with clear diamonds as she showed off her new status to the world.
Stylist Lisa Talbot said that Lauren swapped her elegant daytime looks for ‘full-on evening drama’ in which she unlocked her ‘inner Hollywood siren’.
She told MailOnline: ‘The strapless silhouette hugged her figure to perfection, with intricate beadwork and sheer panelling that added both structure and sensuality.

‘The bodice, corset-inspired in its fit, gave a nod to classic lingerie styling, while the soft pleated panels through the skirt introduced graceful movement as she stepped onto the boat.
‘The combination of sheer inserts and light-catching embellishments gave the dress an ethereal quality glamorous but never overpowering.’
Lisa said that Lauren’s look was ‘the perfect blend of sensual and sophisticated’ and serves as a reminder that she ‘understands the impact of fashion storytelling, particularly on the global stage’.
Lisa said she believes that Lauren would’ve spent much time constructing this look right down to the very final detail, as seen with her glamorous new bag.
Speaking of the ‘Mrs Bezos’ bag, the stylist added: ‘The playful, romantic touch added a charming twist to her otherwise ultra-glamorous ensemble and couldn’t have been more fitting for a bride-to-be celebrating the hours after saying “I do.”
‘Paired with sleek, cascading waves and elegant drop earrings, this look was Lauren Sánchez in her fashion prime: confident, unapologetically glamorous, and fully embracing the spotlight.’
Celebrity stylist Rochelle White said she thought it was a ‘ good mix of high glamour and theme’ which has been seen throughout the weeks with Lauren’s various bridal looks.
‘The style and silhouette really shows and evokes a vintage lingerie evening wear feel, like 1940s and 1950s era,’ she added. ‘With good solid craftsmanship which also radiates the feminine design which commands attention.’

Rochelle said her fashion statement was a ‘mix of high end meets theme and personality,’ as shown with her choice of ‘attention-seeking’ bag.
‘I feel that she has really had fun with her choice of outfits and really has blended everything together,’ she added.
‘Lauren has really rocked each outfit with confidence and conviction which is fitting to her personality. It might not be to everyone’s tastes, but I feel it’s been memorable and an unspoken mark of Lauren Sanchez’s personal style.’
Lauren and Jeff sealed their day of love with a kiss as they made their way to their final party after a three-day wedding extravaganza.
Waving to crowds from her balcony at the Aman Venice Hotel, the new Mrs Bezos stepped out in a figure-hugging pink embellished dress with a fishtail bottom.
The happy couple shared a smooch for all to see before whizzing away down a Venice canal.
Oprah Winfrey, Kylie and Kendall Jenner and Leonardo DiCaprio were also seen making their way to former medieval shipyard the Arsenale to close the nuptials.
A flotilla of paparazzi boats followed Jeff and Lauren and other VIPs as they made their way along the lagoon in private water taxis.

Bezos, 61, worth £177billion, has taken over the Italian city for a wedding estimated to have cost up to £40million
Around 200 of the world’s wealthiest people were gathering for a final night’s fun. Sir Elton John and Lady Gaga were expected to be among a host of performers.
Bezos, 61, worth £177billion, has taken over the Italian city for a wedding estimated to have cost up to £40million, small change for the world’s third richest man.
But 700 demonstrators gathered at Santa Lucia railway station carrying protest banners and waving inflatable crocodiles.
The demo was organised by the No Space For Bezos group, with some carrying Amazon boxes with the words: ‘Ordered, Shipped, Delivered, Rejected.’
But Bezos and Sanchez, 55, cared not a jot. It was the second marriage for both and they have seven children between them.
Earlier, they blew kisses on a visit to Harry’s Bar yesterday – and give a first glimpse of their understated wedding rings.
Sanchez’s simple wedding band was in stark contrast to the 30-carat $3million pink diamond she sported after Bezos asked her to marry him two years ago.
In the run-up to Friday’s ceremony, that sparkler was switched to her right to make way for an upgrade – an even larger, brilliant-white diamond, estimated at 35 carats and worth $10million.
They married in a luxurious ceremony on San Giorgio Maggiore island. Vogue later released a set of pictures, with a braless Sanchez posing in her new husband’s unbuttoned wedding shirt.
The Dolce & Gabbana tuxedo shirt was similar to the one he wore at Friday’s ceremony.
The photoshoot took place earlier this month, the day after Sánchez and Bezos were at the Dolce & Gabbana atelier in central Milan for their final fittings.

Sanchez credited her new husband for ‘transforming my life’.
She revealed her wedding dress was inspired by the high-necked lace wedding dress Sophia Loren wore to marry Cary Grant in the 1958 film Houseboat.
She told the magazine that a few conventions were to be honoured, including the groom not seeing the bride just before the wedding day.
Her Dolce & Gabbana Alta Gioielleria Miracolo earrings, four diamonds cut from a single stone and inlaid in white gold, were her something borrowed.
Her something blue was from Blue Origin, the spaceflight she took with five other women, including the singer Katy Perry, that was arranged by Bezos.
Sánchez said she carried a secret souvenir up in the rocket so she could bring it back for Bezos ‘because it was one of the most profound experiences I’ve had in my life.’
