After having her princess moment in that ball gown, Teigen changed into a strapless ivory dress with a dramatic train. She ended the night in a red mermaid dress that she also spotted during a fitting for her wedding gown and purchased on the spot.
"When you get a wedding dress you go, you do your fitting, you have like three fittings," she said in the interview. "Every time I went in for a fitting, I saw another awesome dress that wasn't there the last time."

"I had a very clear vision of what I wanted for the day, and what I wanted the dress to look like," the Duchess of Sussex said, according to Brides. "So what was amazing in working with Clare is that sometimes you'll find designers try to push you in a different direction, but she just completely respected what I wanted to see for the day, and she wanted to bring that to life for me. In so many ways you are capturing dreams, that as a girl and as you become a woman you will have been thinking about for years."
The dress was simple, yet still made a statement thanks to the bateau neckline. She paired it with a 16-foot silk veil that was embroidered with California poppies, Markle's home state, and flowers representing all 53 countries of the Commonwealth, a nod to her former role as a senior member of the royal family.
