But, she took to Instagram to share the thought and the “details” behind the couple’s looks, and thanked the designer for designing their outfits. “A massive thank you to @thombrowne for your vision. When I heard that Travis and I were the first couple you had dressed, how important it was to you that our story be told, for us to be an extension of each other, it meant so much to us,” she wrote in her caption.

Kourtney went on to share that her look “was the deconstructed version of his perfectly polished look. I had all of the elements from his look draped all over me. His pleated skirt, jacket and suit pants were dripping from my skirt.” She also thanked the designer and her stylist for the evening: “Thank you so much to the entire @thombrowne team for your kindness, patience and exquisite attention to detail. And I can’t leave out my amazing stylist @danixmichelle for being a perfectionist with a heart of gold and a sense of humor. Thank you @voguemagazine @metcostumeinstitute for having us!
