Something old, something new, and something borrowed from the groom's side of the wardrobe. Dove Cameron married Måneskin frontman Damiano David in Italy on Thursday, 24 September, but the bride skipped the traditional white gown for something more tailored to her personal fairytale. Outside Montalcino town hall, Cameron emerged in a custom white Giorgio Armani powersuit that proved bridal fashion does not require a skirt, let alone several metres of tulle.
And yet, nothing about the look felt short on bridal drama. There was a cravat. There was a sweeping cape. There were white calla lilies. There was a bride who suited up for a powerful walk down the aisle.
Something Old, Something New, Something Tailored
Cameron's bridal ensemble centred on a sharply tailored white jacket cinched at the waist with a matching belt, worn over wide-leg trousers. A white cravat brought a menswear-inspired flourish to the look, while the cape flowed from her shoulders and trailed behind her as she walked. It effectively did the job of a traditional train without requiring Cameron to wear a dress at all. The magic of the cape added an ethereal essence to a sharp suit that accentuated Cameron's striking beauty.
She kept the rest relatively pared back, wearing her long dark hair sleek and centre-parted while carrying a charming bouquet of white calla lilies. The Descendants actress' bridal ensemble definitely meant serious business when it came to tying the knot.
The Groom Was Also Tailored to Perfection
David was not about to let his bride have all the tailoring fun. The Måneskin singer coordinated with Cameron in an off-white double-breasted suit, worn with an olive-green scarf draped loosely around his neck. Rather than matching exactly, the couple stayed within the same creamy palette while giving their respective looks distinctly different silhouettes.
Photographs from the day showed the newlyweds holding hands outside the town hall, surrounded by friends and family. Cameron's cape was particularly dramatic from behind, while David's long scarf provided a softer counterpart to his structured suit.
The Dress Less Worn Leads to Happily Ever After Too
Cameron joins a growing list of brides proving that 'bridal' is becoming less synonymous with 'gown'. Wedding suits are hardly new, but celebrity brides have increasingly played with tailoring, separates, and unconventional silhouettes instead of treating the floor-length white dress as mandatory. Dua Lipa also embraced tailored bridal dressing for her London wedding celebrations, helping push the powersuit further into modern-bride wardrobes.
Dove Cameron's version demonstrates exactly why the alternative works. A suit can still deliver the structure, craftsmanship, and visual impact expected from bridal couture while leaving room to play with traditionally masculine details like ties, cravats, and sharp lapels. Call it the dress less worn, and it leads to happily ever after anyway.
Suited Up and Officially Married
Cameron and David were first romantically linked in 2023 before making their red-carpet debut as a couple at the 2024 pre-Grammys gala. Engagement speculation followed after Cameron was photographed wearing a diamond ring in Sydney in October 2025. She later confirmed the engagement on social media in January, calling David her 'favourite part of being alive'.
Now, the couple has traded the red carpet for Montalcino town hall and day one as Mr and Mrs. The traditional wedding dress is not going anywhere, but Dove Cameron just made a persuasive case for brides who want to create a new tradition.
Sometimes, happily ever after comes with a train. Other times, it comes with trousers, a cravat, and one spectacular cape.
