Lauren Sánchez, who recently married Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos in Venice, experienced the theft of one of her 27 designer dresses. The pair, currently on their honeymoon in Taormina, Sicily, were married during a lavish celebration in Venice, attended by numerous celebrities, and the event has faced criticism for highlighting Venice as a venue for the wealthy. Despite reports of theft, police involvement, and damage to another dress worn by either the bride or a guest, these claims have been denied by the couple’s sources, who emphasize that no legal complaints regarding the missing dress have been made. The wedding festivities were marked by protests against Bezos, including the use of laser projecting anti-Bezos slogans and floating a mannequin of Bezos in the Grand Canal. Despite the controversies, the mayor of Venice sees the wedding as beneficial for the local economy. The couple has moved to Taormina for their honeymoon without further incident or clothing mishaps.
