The Biggest Potential Fashion Faux Pas at Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s Star-Studded Wedding
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s intimate Santa Barbara wedding was, by all verifiable accounts, a masterclass in timeless, romantic elegance. The bride, in her custom Ralph Lauren gown, channeled old-Hollywood grace —a signal to her star-studded guest list that this was a classic affair, demanding sophistication, not spectacle.

Yet, even at the highest echelons of celebrity, the simplest rules of wedding etiquette are often forgotten. With official guest photos largely under wraps, we look at the most talked-about attendees and the fashion missteps they risked committing when the dress code called for quiet class, not celebrity flash.

The Confirmed Faux Pas: When The Guest Steals the Show

The first (and most talked-about) visual evidence of a misstep belongs to Paris Hilton. While the heiress is known for her unabashedly glamorous style, her choice of a heavily sequined, ice-blue Jenny Packham gown was in dramatic collision with the bride’s soft, autumnal aesthetic.

The Critique: Hilton’s dress, complete with a flowing cape and matching sheer gloves, was (in simple terms) ‘high-theatre’. Online critics quickly labeled the ensemble “Business Elsa” and likened it to a look better suited for a dance competition or a red carpet launch. This isn’t a critique of beauty; it’s a critique of scale. For a guest, wearing a look that is this distracting (so voluminous, so glittering, and so dramatically colored) is the ultimate act of “main character syndrome.” The dress demanded attention in a setting where all focus belonged to the newlyweds, committing the cardinal fashion sin of overpowering the bride.

 

The Faux Pas I Expected:

Since this wedding was super hush-hush and barely any celebrity pictures made it to the press, I’d list two of the fashion I expected to see at the Gomez-Blanco wedding:

  • The Risk of the ‘Near-White’ Neutral

The biggest fashion worry always falls on the maid of honor’s best friend and for this wedding, it was Taylor Swift. The greatest potential for a faux pas for a guest of Swift’s profile is subtle yet universally unforgivable: wearing a shade of white.

The Critique (Hypothetically speaking): The danger isn’t necessarily a stark white ballgown, but rather the siren song of pale neutrals. A celebrity of Swift’s caliber, who often favors ethereal blush, champagne, or dove-gray tones, risks choosing a dress that photographs as bridal-white under the soft Santa Barbara light. Should she have opted for an embroidered blush or a metallic ivory, she would have placed herself squarely in the perilous “near-white zone,” igniting an internet firestorm and a conversation entirely separate from the bride’s happiness. When in doubt, celebrities going for weddings should always opt for jewel tones to show respect for the one-day-only color code.

  • The Casual Faux Pas: Dressing Down the Black Tie

Turning to the men, the musicians are infamously known for their anti-fashion approach, like Ed Sheeran.

The Critique (Hypothetical): Given the formal, Ralph Lauren-clad attire of the groom, Benny Blanco, the event clearly required a tuxedo or a sharp, dark suit. Sheeran, known for prioritizing comfort and often appearing in jeans, t-shirts, and sneakers, runs the distinct risk of under-dressing. Should photos emerge of him in an ill-fitting blazer, non-dress shoes, or a shirt lacking the necessary formality, it would be deemed a lapse in etiquette. In a world where men’s wedding attire is straightforward, a failure to meet the standard of a classic tuxedo (even with a creative accessory) suggests a lack of deference to the occasion and the hosts.

Conclusion

Ultimately, a celebrity wedding’s success is measured by the joy of the couple. But for the guests, success is measured by respect for the dress code. The Gomez-Blanco wedding proves that while money can buy a couture gown, it cannot always buy good taste or adherence to wedding etiquette. The looks that sparked the most chatter were those that fought the elegant atmosphere, reminding us that sometimes, the biggest fashion win is simply letting the bride shine
