KOURTNEY Kardashian’s fans think she should have worn her mom Kris Jenner’s old wedding dress for her nuptials in Italy.
The 43-year-old was slammed for her short, custom Dolce & Gabbana bridal gown, which critics say was “tacky and tasteless”.
Fans believe they have found the stunning vintage dress Kourtney should have worn instead after watching a resurfaced video from KUWTK.
In the episode, Kris showed daughters Kim and Khloe her wedding dress from her 1978 nuptials to their late father Robert.
Khloe said the garment was “so ugly” and reduced her mom to tears, so Kim offered to try it on.
The reality star looked incredible in the retro gown, which featured a fitted lace bodice, scoop neckline, bell sleeves and a full lace-edged skirt.

Kim jokingly broke into song while wearing the dress, trilling: “The hills are alive!” before saying: “I feel like I’m in the Sound Of Music.”
Kris approved of the look, remarking in a confessional: “Kim looks beautiful in it and it fits her like a glove.”
The old video resurfaced on Reddit, where one fan wrote: “This old wedding dress of Kris that Khloe called ‘so ugly’ literally looks better than Kourtney’s wedding dress.”
Another added: “I WISH Kourtney had worn that,” and another posted on Instagram, “would have been so much better.”
For her opulent third wedding to Travis Barker in Portofino, Italy, earlier this month, Kourtney wore a short gown with a corset, opera gloves, and flowing veil.
Fans were disappointed by the bridal look, with one writing on Facebook: “It’s like she mixed her ‘wedding and ‘wedding night’ outfits up…”
Another quipped: “She’s trying so hard to be punk/rock n roll and she just looks like a kid dressing up in her mom’s lingerie.”
“I’m from Las Vegas and this is still tacky. It’s giving ‘Theater kid that left the Midwest for the first time’ level of tourist,” someone else wrote.
The Sun exclusively revealed that Kourtney felt “upset” about the negative comments over her dress.
The mom-of-three apparently fell in love with it when she first tried it on – but then hated the way it looked on camera, an insider said.
The source said: “She loved her dress when she picked it, she felt really great in it – then she hated it when she saw the pictures of it.
“She was upset with the way it looked on camera and she hates the reaction she has got from fans over it.”
Kourtney also felt the wedding became too chaotic when she actually envisioned a much more private affair, the source claimed.
“The wedding was totally chaotic – it was supposed to be private but lots of uninvited people showed up,” the insider said.
“They weren’t expecting so many people to bring plus ones and even twos.
“They felt like they had to let everyone in. They were in a foreign country and didn’t know what else to do except to let them in.”
Kourtney also faced backlash for her other outfits during her wild wedding weekend, which included a short black dress with a black veil and a red fur-trim dress.
