Emily Ratajkowski has said that she wore a yellow suit for her wedding instead of a white dress because she doesn’t consider herself to be “a pure woman.”

The 26-year-old tied the knot with producer Sebastian Bear-McClard earlier this year.

The couple enjoyed a private ceremony at City Hall in New York, for which the model opted for a mustard yellow suit from Zara.

She told Vanity Fair: ''I never loved the idea of wearing white for a wedding because I'm not a pure woman.

“I'm a woman with a lot of character and experience and life. I also just loved the idea of a suit, especially at City Hall because it's like you're taking care of business.

“I really wanted to wear red actually, initially ... and then I just loved mustard yellow and just knew it was the one.''

Ratajkowski said that she enjoyed the hours before breaking the news to the public, describing it as “very heist movie”.

The model said: “It all felt very heist movie because all of my girlfriends were in suits, too, and I wasn't wearing white, so I kept passing the bouquet of flowers to them, like, 'Decoy, decoy!'

“I did not expect everyone to find out, which I realise now is obviously very stupid. I'm living in an alternative universe.

“I had to FaceTime to my parents [and by then] I had several glasses of champagne. I was like, 'Here we go!'''
