Daisy Hoppen and Vincent Gilbert’s meet-cute reads like the script from a Richard Curtis movie.
Our newly single British heroine, who runs her own fashion PR company, has just moved to a flat overlooking Highbury Fields in north London when the pandemic strikes. Disappointed that her Carrie Bradshaw-inspired “cocktails and dating” dream is on pause, and determined not to let Covid get her down, she resolves to run a few laps of the park every morning before work.
They dated for several months, until a proposal came over the Easter weekend, while the pair were enjoying time away with friends in Bath. “I was eating a Magnum ice cream in between moaning about how I didn’t want to walk up the hill and then I looked down and he was on one knee speaking French,” Daisy says. “It was a massive surprise.
And for the main event, Hoppen called upon her childhood friend Simone Rocha to create a white lace gown largely based on a favourite slip dress from a previous collection. “Simone knows me so well, so I kind of said, ‘Do whatever you think’,” recalls Daisy. “We’d been to seeat the Royal Opera House together, so that was our inspiration.” Hoppen’s mother had found an old pair of Gina shoes in a charity shop in Somerset, which Rocha customised with pearls. Later, she switched into Jimmy Choos.
