Lena Dunham looks MUCH thinner as her Taylor Swift wedding looks are revealed… after raunchy speech that left guests in shock
Lena Dunham had visibly trimmed down in new photos of the designer clothes she wore to Taylor Swift’s wedding functions at Madison Square Garden.
The Girls creator, 40, was in attendance both at the intimate rehearsal dinner for 100 on Thursday and at the 1,000-strong ceremony and reception Friday night.
Dunham, a longtime friend of the bride, delivered a raunchy speech at the first event that left some of the guests in shock, as exclusively revealed by the Daily Mail.
She then joined a cavalcade of stars including Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid, as well as Brad Pitt, Jennifer Lopez, Selena Gomez, Tom Hanks, Beyonce, Hugh Grant and more to see Swift exchange vows with NFL star Travis Kelce on Friday.
Now her stylist Talia Cassel has fired up her Instagram page to unveil the ensembles she curated for Dunham to wear to the events.
In both of the custom outfits – one by Christian Cowan and one by Amber Doyle – Dunham’s reduced frame was impossible to miss.
The Daily Mail has contacted Dunham’s representatives for comment.

Amber Doyle had produced a lime green skirt suit that shimmered under the lights, cut off at the knee and teamed with matching shoes thrifted from The RealReal
Meanwhile the Christian Cowan look included a magenta top with flared robe-like cuffs, garnished with a massive floral brooch done in tulle
Cowan’s more formal creation was presumably the one Dunham wore for Friday night’s ceremony, which was officiated by Adam Sandler and featured performances by Paul McCartney, Stevie Nicks and Swift herself.
The newlyweds, who had their respective brothers Austin Swift and Jason Kelce as Man of Honor and Best Man, were dressed in Christian Dior Haute Couture.

Dunham’s figure was cinched in by a slimming black floor-length skirt that featured a waistline designed to slightly resemble a cummerbund.
Last year at the height of the Ozempic era, she bewailed the decline of the body positivity movement, which she said was ‘here, and then it was gone,’ via Variety.
‘I obviously am not critical of anybody’s choice, whether it’s to use Ozempic – people should be allowed to have whatever body they feel comfortable in,’ she said.
‘But we cannot pretend that the bodies people want aren’t influenced, and we can’t claim it’s always for health reasons and not for aesthetic reasons.’

Her fluctuating size has been a lightning rod of public conversation ever since she shot to fame in 2012 on her self-created series Girls, featuring numerous sex scenes in which Dunham exposed her physique on camera.
She attributed her weight gain in recent years both to sobriety and to her raft of medical issues, including endometriosis that led in 2017 to a total hysterectomy with ovarian removal, which in turn resulted in early menopause.
In 2019, she raved on Instagram that she was ‘the happiest I’ve ever been,’ having allowed herself to relax and ‘weigh the most I ever have.’
She has been married since late 2021 to the musician Luis Felber, whom she first met on a blind date near the beginning of that year.
Swift’s wedding presented the risk Dunham might have an awkward run-in with her ex Jack Antonoff, a longstanding friend and co-writer of the bride.
The discomfiture of the potential encounter might have been amplified by the fact Dunham had just presented a scathing account of their romance in her new memoir Famesick, which soared to the top of the New York Times bestseller list.
