Victoria's Secret Angel Kate Grigorieva Weds Wearing Stunning Lace Mermaid Gown in Russia

She's recently been handed her wings as a Victoria's Secret Angel. And Kate Grigorieva couldn't have looked more angelic as she wore white for her wedding. The 25-year-old beauty posted pictures to Instagram of her celebrations on Sunday in St Petersburg, in her home country of Russia.

She chose a stunning lace-covered gown which showed off her slender physique to full effect. The long-sleeved Zac Posen dress had a fitted bodice and flared skirt with train - and the model kept her make-up natural and simple with a smokey eye and softly flushed cheek. She swept her honey locks into a loose up-do with wispy tendrils and fixed a flowing traditional veil to the back.

The catwalk stunner opted for a purple colour scheme with her six bridesmaids in various shades of the hue and a bouquet which complemented the choice. She also shared some snaps getting ready for her nuptials, clad in a white silky robe with 'Bride' emblazoned across the back.The Russia's Next Top Model runner-up recently told US Weekly 'Love at first sight is a real thing!'

According to a number of Russian websites her new husband appears be a soldier, called Alexander, who is currently serving in Severomorsk. It seems they had been friends for a number of years before they started dating. Kate is one of ten new Angels who joined established Lily Aldridge, Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, Behati Prinsloo, and Candice Swanepoel in April.

The new line up followed the departure of both Doutzen Kroes and Karlie Kloss, who announced they had hung up their wings earlier this year to focus on other projects. Doutzen, 30, ended her contract with the company at the end of last year after being offered a new 'business opportunity', while Karlie, 22, is ending her collaboration with the brand when her contract runs out later this year to focus on her 'myriad commitments'.

The label said in a statement: 'The expanded Angel lineup gives Victoria's Secret the largest group of contract models in its history and the most powerful collection of established and emerging models in the world.'
