Sarah Jessica Parker‘s  offered a few different reasons for wearing a black dress to her 1997  wedding to Matthew Broderick—to fool the press, because she was  embarrassed to be a bride—but the one thing that never changes?  That  she regrets doing so.  She’s repeatedly mentioned that she wishes she’d  worn white, and that were she and Broderick to ever renew their vows,  she’d, “White it up.” But Vera Wang’s counting  on someone to wear black. The designer, whose name is synonymous with  ‘bride,’ sent out half a dozen black wedding dresses at her bridal show  this weekend. While her colleagues—
Oscar de la Renta,  Monique Lhuillier, Reem Acra—stuck to white, she offered the opposite.   Whether she drew inspiration from Parker (a bit late) or the upcoming  Twilight nuptials, Wang was obviously thinking about the darker side of  marriage. The dresses are, of course, gorgeous, but would you actually wear black  on your big day?
