Part of an ongoing series of 29Secrets stories, taking a deep dive into the history of legendary beauty products and iconic fashion moments By Christopher Turner Illustration by Michael Hak It was the spring of 1994 when of-the-moment English heartthrob Hugh Grant was upstaged at the premiere of his soon-to-be-hit film Four Weddings and a Funeral not by a co-star or his sultry date, Elizabeth Liz Hurley, but by the black Versace safety pin dress that would turn her into an overnight star
She wears her hair heavily braided in a half-crown plus a braided bun and the rest of the braids running down her back to her waist, which supposedly "helped her blend in"
Sophisticated yet fun, this multicoloured sheath dress, with slip, works for many occasions
Made in luxuriously soft 22mm silk with delicate spaghetti straps, sweetheart neckline, lace detail and a body skimming tea length silhouette
It wasn't just Emma Bunton rocking the pigtails
