She wore off-white at her wedding and changed into silver. The wedding dress was simple, tasteful, and elegant. It was an at-home wedding, so something complex or lavish would've seemed ridiculous, and we all know who she is, what she's worth, etc. so no need to announce it. She's tiny and bird-like and the dress highlights this to great effect; that dress would look horrid on someone any larger. Whether or not that's your aesthetic (it's not for me), she's playing the role and wearing the dress, rather than looking like some kind of cosplayer as an overly elaborate dress wears her. The whitework (embroidery) is lovely, the details on the veil are simple but stunning, and the entire vibe is a perfect fit for the ceremony and setting.

Sorry y'all don't understand that, or are mad at her for being super thin and having famous friends or something, but this is well-executed.

We understand that. I don’t agree. She is a middle eastern Muslim woman getting married for the second time at home. She would have looked better in color. Gray is not a color.

Huma’s not Middle Eastern, you ignoramus. Her parents are Indian and Pakistani.

Great! I’m South Asian too. Do you know what Indian and Pakistani brides wear? Hint, nothing in the substance of what I said changes. They wear color.

It's not really surprising she's friends with those women -- they all live in NY and are in similar social and charitable circles. Huma has always been a fashion girl and it's zero surprise she's friendly with Anna Wintour, and thus Bee Schaffer (Anna's daughter), as well as designers like Chapman, Prabal Gurung, Tori Burch, etc. (who were also all at the wedding). Huma and her husband met at a party thrown by Nicky Hilton (who was also there and also part of this same cohort). Do you really think its' weird that people with similar interests and taste, who live and vacation in the same places and go to the same parties, might know each other and be friends?

Also, it doesn't say she's "best friends" with any of them. Vogue of course featured photos of the famous and fashion-adjacent people at the wedding. These aren't her personal wedding photos. These are the photos of the event that Vogue chose to feature, highlighting the people and aspects of the wedding that would be of the most interest to Vogue readers. Notice there is exactly one photo of Huma's sister, who was her maid of honor, and the just one photo of the bridesmaids in order to feature their designer dresses, but their names aren't even listed. I suspect Huma spent more of the day with those women than she did with Jennifer Lawrence or Tori Burch, just as any bride does.

Huma literally refers to Bee as her "surrogate sister" in the captions and mentions "My dear friend Prabal". She absolutely is making a point to emphasize how close she is to al these famous fashion people.

Huma didn't write it, probably someone on Vogue staff did on her behalf. Why would she be so insecure to name drop, she is a billionaire and her adopted parents are former president and Secretary of State and God mother is Anna Wintour.

You should take your own advice. We don’t have to just sit and listen to your opinions. You can hear mine too.

Have you been to a south asian wedding recently? A lot of brides are wearing white now.
