When Kourtney Kardashian married boyfriend Travis Barker over the weekend in Portofino, Italy, she wore several dress, including one just for the reception.

While the 43-year-old chose a white silk and lace Alta Moda Dolce & Gabbana gown for the ceremony, she changed things up for later on in the proceedings, opting for a black mini dress.

The frock appears to be structured like a corset and features thick straps and lace gloves.

Kardashian paired the look with thigh-high black lace stockings and a black lace veil, as seen in videos shared on Instagram by Alabama Barker, Kardashian’s new step-daughter who also acted as one of her bridesmaids.

During the ceremony, the Poosh founder paired her gown with a personalised veil consisting of a giant replica of Barker’s Virgin Mary head tattoo.

“Kourtney Kardashian wears a one-of-a-kind #DGAltaModa white silk lace and satin gown and a dramatic hand-embroidered veil,” Dolce & Gabanna said in an Instagram post that included a photo of the veil.

“For the gown, #DomenicoDolce and #StefanoGabbana took inspiration from the iconic figures of the Italian lingerie and la dolce vita,” the post said.

“Kourtney wears a wide, long tulle veil with floral lace appliqués inspired by the flowers of the Portofino gardens. The veil has been hand-embroidered with a large depiction of the Virgin Mary and the words ‘family loyalty respect’,” it added.

“The embroidery, done with the ‘cross stitch’ technique, recalls her husband Travis’ tattoo and is a symbol of alliance, respect and common devotion.”

The couple’s ceremony was held at a villa named L’Olivetta, which is owned by Dolce & Gabbana. It was followed by a reception at Castello Brown, a castle with views of the Portofino harbour.
