Kourtney Kardashian divided fans when she wore a Dolce & Gabbana minidress to her wedding, but new research shows it is one of the most popular wedding dresses of all time.
The reality star married Travis Barker in a lavish Italian ceremony last May and she fell in love with her corseted white dress, which was influenced by her husband's Virgin Mary tattoo and a Guns N' Roses music video.
Kourtney's dress featured impressive lace detail and was paired with an epic veil which was emblazoned with a picture of a woman with a halo around her head.
The non-traditional gown caused a surge in online searches for "wedding dress", with the search term rising 167% above the average in 2022.

Despite the pair divorcing in 1996, Diana's dress still remains one of the most popular wedding dresses of the last century.

The iconic ivory dress was embroidered with sequins, frilled lace and 10,000 pearls. It is estimated to have been worth $115,000 (£94,000).
