Singer Sabrina Carpenter and actor Josh O’Connor sat among guests including Priyanka Chopra, Nick Jonas, Naomi Watts, Rebecca Ferguson and Alexa Chung.
Despite the razzmatazz, Anderson’s wager is plain: that the world’s most storied fashion house can afford to be strange.
He is often compared to Matthieu Blazy, the new designer at rival Chanel, who made the wedding dress for singer Dua Lipa this month.

THE BRIDE YOU CAN’T SEE
As couture tradition dictates, the show closed with a bride.
Anderson sent out a pale, strapless column gown under a long veil of hand-pleated chiffon, trimmed with feathered dandelions and embroidered cactus flowers.
It was the second wedding dress Anderson showcased this week — and the only one anyone could photograph.
