Princess Diana’s Regal Bridal Look<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nLike Grace Kelly, Princess Diana was known for her charitable work. A few iconic moments from her years in the spotlight:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- During her marriage, Diana was president or patron of over 100 different charities. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- She was also an activist who advocated for AIDS research and solving homelessness in the U.K. \u2014 two topics that were considered taboo for royals to talk about. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Diana was one of the first public figures to be photographed touching AIDS victims, thus helping to destigmatize the condition.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Princess Diana’s celebrity wedding dress was another stunning ballgown \u2014 a Disney princess-like silhouette with dramatic puff sleeves, a touch of sparkle on her bodice, ruffled flourishes, and a chic bow. If you\u2019ve always loved Diana\u2019s gown, Juniper by Sottero and Midgley<\/a> has all the voluminous, over-the-top fabulousness you could ask for! She’s luxe, ultra-modern with some flare, and just the kind of thing we imagine Diana would wear today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n![\"Bride](\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Important-Female-Figures_IGFB-Images-2-700x875.png\")

Amal Clooney’s Celebrity Wedding Dress<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nAn all-time famous human rights lawyer and social justice icon, Amal Clooney inspires us with her dedication to the Clooney Foundation for Justice, an organization that ensures those responsible for human rights violations worldwide are held accountable. Amal’s foundation focuses on war crimes, genocide, freedom of the press, women\u2019s rights, and promoting rule. She has represented political prisoners around the world and played an essential role in many landmark human rights cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s a quote we love from Amal Clooney:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs women, we may not be a minority, but there is a bond that we all share. It is not a bond of geography. Or religion. Or culture. It is a bond of shared experience \u2014 experiences that only women go through and struggles that only women face.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nAmal Clooney stunned on her wedding day in an off-the-shoulder A-line lace bridal gown. If Amal is someone who inspires you and you want to recreate her look, we have a gorgeous variation: Edison by Maggie Sottero<\/a> is a modern twist on Amal\u2019s celebrity wedding dress, featuring romantic lace with a statement illusion train and off-the-shoulder lace straps \u2014 fabulous from any angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n![\"Bride](\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Important-Female-Figures_IGFB-Images-3-700x875.png\")

Elizabeth Taylor: Hollywood Romance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nAnother lifelong celebrity and social advocate, Elizabeth Taylor used her celebrity to bring attention to important health crises and entrepreneurial endeavors:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Elizabeth co-founded The Foundation for AIDS Research in 1985 and regularly encouraged the government to address the crisis. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- She also established the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation in 1991 to provide care for vulnerable patients. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- On top of what she did for the AIDS community, she negotiated the first $1 million contract for an actor and became the first female social entrepreneur. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- In 2000, she was made Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Elizabeth Taylor’s bridal gown gives us sophisticated princess vibes with an off-the-shoulder fitted bodice and full ballgown skirt. Long sleeves and simple satin make this celebrity wedding dress one to remember. Elizabeth’s look reminds us a lot of Derrick by Maggie Sottero<\/a>, a satin V-neckline bridal gown with exposed boning details and detachable cap sleeves (if you’re after that off-the-shoulder look). It’s a little bit thespian, a little bit ballerina, and 100% dreamy drama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n![\"Bride](\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Important-Female-Figures_IGFB-Images-4-700x875.png\")

Serena Williams in Chic Tulle<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nSerena Williams revolutionized women’s tennis and has won more Grand Slam singles titles than any other man or woman during the open era. Her list of accolades and accomplishments is truly impressive:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Serena changed the stereotype of how a sports champion should look, dress, and act. She showed that women can be strong and beautiful and still win. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- She broke down barriers to bring more diversity to tennis\u2026 She strongly advocates that prize money for women should be the same as for men and unapologetically brought her black American female identity to a stereotypically white sport. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- She is a true force of talent and dedication, having dominated the sport for over two decades.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
For inspo, here\u2019s one of our favorite Serena Williams quotes: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWith a defeat, when you lose, you get up, you make it better, you try again. That\u2019s what I do in life, when I get down, when I get sick, I don\u2019t want to just stop. I keep going and I try to do more. Everyone always says never give up but you really have to take that to heart and really do never definitely give up. Keep trying.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nFor her wedding, Serena Williams wore a dramatic tulle ballgown with a simple sweetheart neckline. If you love a sweetheart neckline and larger-than-life tulle skirt like Serena does and aren’t afraid to own your girliness, we can’t help but steer you in the direction of Elton by Sottero and Midgley<\/a>. We’re getting Silver Screen vibes and red carpet magic. We’re getting sweet-spice-everything-nice in this princess ball gown wedding dress with layered tulle and a beaded bodice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n![\"Bride](\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Important-Female-Figures_IGFB-Images-5-700x875.png\")

Kate Middleton in an A-line Silhouette<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nLike Princess Diana before her, Kate Middleton undertakes many philanthropic projects through the Royal Foundation, focusing on issues like early childhood care, addiction, and art. She encourages people to discuss their mental health through her campaign, Heads Together. She has worked with charities for over a decade to lay the groundwork for understanding the complexities of mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kate Middleton wore an A-line celebrity wedding dress that was the perfect balance of lace and regal simplicity. The simple A-line gown with a sweetheart neckline’s bodice was covered in delicate lace overlays with lace long sleeves and a stunning lace v-neck. Love her look? Kate’s wedding dress reminds us of Kingsley by Sottero and Midgley<\/a>, a keyhole back A-line wedding gown featuring unique floral lace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n![\"Bride](\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Important-Female-Figures_IGFB-Images-6-700x875.png\")

Michelle Obama’s Celebrity Wedding Dress<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nFormer First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama has become a role model for women and continues to dedicate herself to work for healthy families, higher education, and service members and their families. Her many advocacy interests include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Helping working women balance their careers and families<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Encouraging children to participate in physical activities<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Increased access to healthier food<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Poverty awareness and social reform<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s a quote we love from Michelle Obama:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cFor me, becoming isn\u2019t about arriving somewhere or achieving a certain aim. I see it instead as forward motion, a means of evolving, a way to reach continuously toward a better self. The journey doesn\u2019t end.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nMichelle Obama’s celebrity wedding dress was a beautiful off-the-shoulder long-sleeve simple A-line bridal gown with a stunningly oversized satin bow in the back. If you’re totally inspired by Michelle Obama and looking for something similar, Kiki by Rebecca Ingram<\/a> gives us the same gorgeous vibes as Michelle’s wedding dress. Kiki is a vintage off-the-shoulder satin ballgown bridal dress with a statement bow accessory that makes for particularly dazzling photo ops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n![\"Bride](\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Important-Female-Figures_IGFB-Images-7-700x875.png\")
