Clara Cornet Wore Three French Designers for Her Laid-Back Parisian Wedding to Luca Pronzato

Clara Cornet and Luca Pronzato first met in early 2019 at one of his pop-up restaurants held on a mutual friend’s rooftop in Paris. Luca, the founder of creative culinary collective We Are Ona, first noticed Clara—Instagram’s head of fashion partnerships for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa—because of her shoes: sky-high stilettos that, while perfect for the runway show Clara had attended earlier that day, had to be a burden by that point in the night. “I was wearing the highest heels as it was in the midst of Paris Fashion Week, and he offered to let me wear his shoes—he took off and handed me his Birkenstock sandals for me to feel more comfortable,” Clara says of their reverse Cinderella origin story. “The rest was history.”

Almost four years later, on July 8, 2023, the two married in a civil ceremony at City Hall. In true French-girl style, Clara wore a classic Chanel white tweed dress by Virginie Viard paired with a necklace, earrings, and rings from Sophie Bille Brahe. Luca, meanwhile, chose a double-breasted Fursac pinstripe suit by menswear designer and vintage guru Gauthier Borsarello. Their two-and-a-half-year-old son, Leo, came dressed for the occasion as well, in what Clara describes as the “most adorable” white Bonpoint set. While his parents wed, he carried a little bouquet of lavender.

The next day they held a second ceremony and reception at Le Doyenné, a Michelin Green Star restaurant in St. Vrain run by their friends Shaun Kelly and James Edward Henry that sources its ingredients from their expansive garden. Luca’s event production company and team at We Are Ona acted as their wedding planners. “We wanted to get all of our friends involved, and we are very grateful to be surrounded by such talents in their various fields, who all supported us in our wedding journey,” the bride says.

Clara chose another dress by a French designer—and, this time, also a close confidante: “I knew I wanted to wear my longtime friend Simon Porte Jacquemus and wore a flowy silk backless dress with square-toe heels from the latest Chouchou collection that was shown a week earlier in Versailles,” she said. Clara walked through Le Doyenné’s garden to meet Luca, who wore a classic white Fursac tuxedo jacket. After their vows, Leo, in a Bode shirt, put the rings on his parents’ fingers. The bride describes the entire experience as “serene.”
