Article (news)

<p>Writer, artist, and advocate <strong>Tallulah Willis</strong> tied the knot with musician<strong> Justin Acee</strong> on August 8. The ceremony was held in Sun Valley, Idaho, a week after their intimate wedding in a suite at the Chateau Marmont. </p><p>For her outdoor wedding, Tallulah wore a strapless custom creation by <strong>Balenciaga</strong> creative director <strong>Pierpaolo Piccioli</strong>. From sourcing wedding gown inspiration from Etsy, <strong>Demi Moore</strong> and<strong> Bruce Willis</strong>&#x27; daughter ended up getting expert help from her mother&#x27;s stylist, <strong>Brad Goreski</strong>, who guided her in narrowing down her options. </p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:960px;display:block" width="960"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1786376624060772170117_18621379249012928_3611698834848776289_n.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/><span class="fr-inner">Photo from @dimitrishair</span></span></span></div><div><br/></div><p>In an interview with <em>Vogue</em>, Brad said, &quot;I think one of the big, important things for Tallulah was that it was whimsical and ethereal. And I think putting it through the Balenciaga lens. The couture team and Pierpaolo sent the most exquisite selection of sketches to choose from.&quot;</p><p>The result is an exquisite wedding gown that is simple yet statement-making. The strapless column dress has a draped bustier detail that extends all the way at the back, punctuated by a bow and a floor-length cascading skirt. </p><div><br/></div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1786377074444762372014_18466960207118508_7555562950289534104_n.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1786384705560Screen Shot 2026-08-11 at 1.58.11 AM.png" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div><em></em></div><div><br/></div><p>According to <em>Vogue</em>, which joined Tallulah at her final fitting, &quot;The dress took 712 hours of work, including 405 hours of construction and atelier alterations, while an additional nine hours were dedicated to the veil alone.&quot; Additionally, the details were meticulously hand-embroidered and individually beaded by artisans in the Balenciaga atelier.
