Last night on New Year’s Eve, musician Este Haim married tech entrepreneur Jonathan “Johnny” Levin at an intimate ceremony in California—and back in November, Vogue was on hand to document the final fitting of her Louis Vuitton wedding dress, designed by her friend Nicolas Ghesquière.
To begin, we track down the Haim sisters in Paris, as Este, Alana, and Danielle walk and talk their way to the Louis Vuitton atelier. In addition to trying on Este’s ceremony, reception, and after-party looks, Alana and Danielle are also seeing their bridesmaids’ dresses one last time.
“I’ve been looking forward to this day since I was five,” Este—who grew up with her sisters in California’s San Fernando Valley—admits. “When I was five, I had this vision of me, coming down a spiral staircase, there’s a scene in Cinderella that probably is what I was mimicking, but I would descend in this giant ballroom gown, and then my fiancé, [my] husband, would be at the bottom and grab my hand.”
Upon entering the atelier, Este immediately cracks a joke: “Can I live here?!” Then, the sisters are presented with two pale blue bridesmaid dresses on mannequins. The looks are met with excited screams. Alana and Danielle rush towards the dresses and pose beside them, before kicking off the sisterly banter that is a constant throughout the fitting.
