Kate Winslet glittered in her wedding to artist Jim Threapleton on Nov. 22, 1998, wearing a custom Alexander McQueen empire waist dress adorned with jeweled fringe and more ornate embellishments — a look both very of-the-moment and also straight out of the period films she was so famous for. The Titanic actress also wore sparkling beaded fingerless gloves to add to the effect.
