Lauren Sanchez was living out her ‘1950s Italian Riviera’ fantasy by channelling vintage film stars with her classy ensemble, according to a style expert, as she continues to enjoy her $46 million nuptials in Venice.
The former journalist and bride-to-be, 55, was photographed walking along a bridge on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore wearing a stunning white headscarf on the day of her $20 million Venetian wedding to Jeff Bezos.
She was the epitome of style and grace as she unveiled her second bridal look which consisted of an ivory tailored peacoat with black buttons, paired with a matching skirt.
Lauren put her best fashion foot forward as she completed her chic ensemble with printed headscarf, elegantly wrapped around her chocolate caramel tresses and a pair of classic black Celine sunglasses, along with a black croc-print handbag.
It is a look synonymous with the likes of sophisticated vintage film stars such as Audrey Hepburn, Sophie Loren and Jackie O.
According to stylist Lisa Talbot, Lauren – who has invited A-listers from around the world to celebrate her big day – is ‘radiating timeless elegance’ with her look.
She told MailOnline: ‘Lauren Sanchez made a striking style statement today in Venice as she stepped out ahead of her wedding to Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. Radiating timeless elegance, Sanchez embraced a look steeped in vintage glamour with unmistakable nods to classic 1950s Italian Riviera style.
‘Her ivory short-sleeved jacket, cut with a sculpted waist and structured shoulders, featured oversized buttons that added polish without overwhelming the minimalist silhouette.

‘The fabric’s clean, structured finish gave the outfit a tailored sharpness, while the subtle peplum hem flattered her figure and added a touch of feminine flair.’
Talbot added that her choice of headscarf helped take her look to the next level, along with pairing it with a pair of designer sunglasses which fit the frame of her chiselled face perfectly.
‘What truly elevated the look was her choice of accessories: a sheer white headscarf, chicly knotted under the chin paired with oversized dark sunglasses, perfectly evoked the iconic style of Jackie O and Sophia Loren,’ she said.
‘The scarf, layered over her brunette waves and lightly blowing in the breeze, added a sense of softness and romantic mystery.
‘Sanchez’s styling cleverly struck a balance between modern sophistication and old-school screen siren.
‘The cream palette was a subtle nod to bridalwear without being overtly stylish, respectful choice for the pre-wedding occasion that kept all eyes on her without upstaging the big day.’
Yesterday, Sanchez turned heads in her golden $100,000 pre-wedding gown, which was described as ‘a performance piece’.
Speaking to FEMAIL, industry insiders have revealed the hidden meaning behind the former journalist’s striking corset dress from Schiaparelli’s 2025 couture collection, as she and her Amazon tycoon fiance, 61, are set to tie the knot in Venice today.

Lauren Sanchez has been pulling out all the stops ahead of her nuptials in Venice today, to Jeff Bezos 61, and her $100k pre-wedding gown proves no expense was being spared
The bride, 55, stepped out for their celebrity-filled rehearsal dinner in a shimmering ensemble designed by Daniel Roseberry and titled ‘Icarus.’
The figure-hugging frock was embroidered with designs of swirling vines and florals in blue, green, and gold tones that were set against a champagne fabric.
Celebrity stylist Rochelle White said the piece was a way for Lauren to reflect her ‘unapologetic and extravagant’ personality.
‘It wasn’t sublet or muted, but bold and pretty daring,’ she explained. ‘I feel that she knew all eyes would be on her and this could be a tease of what is to come.
‘I am getting high fashion vibes from this piece, alongside good craftsmanship mixed with elegance. I feel that this could divide opinions on it within the fashion community and it be either loved or loathed.’
