1
Ciao Vogue, it's Dove Cameron and we are here in Rome on our way to Valentino for my final wedding dress fitting.
2
Crazy.
3
I never really dreamed about what my wedding would look like when I was a little girl or anything like that.
4
I think I wanted to rent out like Carnegie Hall
5
and enter in like a big black dress made out of feathers
6
and have a 32 -piece orchestra playing and so now
7
that it's real it's like I I feel like wildly unprepared
8
but in a good way like it feels right it feels
9
natural it feels easy it feels like a natural beautiful next
10
step I don't know how else to describe it I'm in
11
love we're getting married in four days I'm really glad
12
that the wedding is gonna be more than one day because everyone keeps telling me that it's gonna go so fast.
13
I feel like it won't feel real until I'm there.
14
My fiance and I keep saying that.
15
It'll feel real when we're there. So who's I?
16
Hi babe.
17
Hi vibes.
18
Let's go.
19
Let's go.
20
Up to Valentino.
21
we're almost there okay open your eyes oh my god i've
22
never seen it with the full thing with the veil on the mannequin i've seen it multiple times
23
but every time
24
that i see it it really is like seeing it for
25
the first time yeah i mean each time it feels so different oh you guys did such an incredible job with it.
26
It's so beautiful.
27
My great desire for this dress was that it was simple
28
but elevated and something that I felt like myself and something
29
that was classic something that felt timeless but still interesting
30
and it's so romantic like every time I put it on the dress gets more
31
and more like a second skin and this veil was really there.
32
The veil is equally if not better than the actual dress, which is impossible.
33
My middle name is Celeste and I really wanted something that was really celestial, something very unique.
34
They really created an art piece.
35
The veil is really special.
36
I think that the Valentino team pitched this because it was just so dramatic when it trails and the sun hits it.
37
It's gonna just look like floating constellation on the ground.
38
I do think when we had our very first fitting, it was maybe like a foot or two longer, remember?
39
Yeah.
40
Which felt like we were like, wow, we're gonna...
41
And then we thought maybe that's not super practical.
42
I don't know if you can see, but we created the separation here and on the other side
43
so that I can reach my arms out and hold the bouquet.
44
They have this beautiful moon embroidery.
45
You can see all these beautiful little stars.
46
I can't wait for you guys to see what it looks like on, but also with and without the veil.
47
It's so special.
48
I can't wait as well.
49
Shall we try it on?
50
Let's try it on!
51
I don't know why I'm nervous.
52
Now actually I'm gonna cry.
53
It'd be weird if you didn't.
54
Would you be weird if I didn't?
55
Yeah you have to let it out now.
56
It's really hard for me to feel like myself in a dress
57
and I'm I really feel like myself so thank you
58
so much well should we call my mom ready yeah we're gonna call my mom
59
and sister because they couldn't be here hi mommy hi baby hi here let me take you i'm
60
so excited to see you guys you can't cry
61
because i'm gonna cry so much you wow you look gorgeous thanks grandma
62
and i like your hair that way i'm gonna pass you off to caitlyn
63
so that i can put my veil on is that Okay?
64
Absolutely.
65
Wow.
66
No, it's a secret.
67
No, Damiano's not seeing any of this.
68
Not until, like, today.
69
Oh my gosh.
70
See you in just a couple days.
71
Yeah, see you in, like, three days.
72
Bye -bye, sweetheart.
73
How would I describe Dove Style in three words? strong, timeless, ethereal.
74
I mean, there's like 20 other words, but.
75
three for now that's our problem we love too many things uh -huh
76
and we love words we love clothes i don't think i'll
77
ever get over the fit of this dress in particular like it's really insane
78
so what they were able to do was crazy yeah
79
and i think it's
80
because of the the care the effort the pace we haven't
81
really given a moment to the buttons the buttons look at how many look at all of these buttons
82
so the buttons are going to go all the way from
83
the top all the to the hem of the train
84
and the sleeves i love this i feel like i forgot them
85
and then i remember them these are maybe my favorite detail i know that's crazy
86
but i know yeah it's crazy because we have this insane veil
87
and there's a million details on this that i could obviously focus on
88
but i do i don't know i love i love movement in garments
89
but i didn't want like a i didn't want dress with a large skirt
90
because it didn't feel like me and
91
so i wanted to find the movement in other places yeah
92
that's why we also ended up with three tracks everybody tried
93
to warn me how crazy it was gonna be to play in a wedding
94
and i was like yeah yeah and damiano
95
and i were both like we're gonna figure it out like it can't be
96
that hard this is also on top of everything else that she does.
97
FYI, releasing an album, preparing for a tour, acting everything.
98
True, but I honestly think like even just whoever, reaching out to you guys, whoever's out there finding a wedding right now,
99
I reach out to you in love and appreciation and solidarity because it was so overwhelming.
100
I could not have foreseen how crazy it was going to feel.
101
And now we're here, so I feel like it doesn't feel real because there's been so much leading up to it.
102
Yeah.
103
the experience of creating your wedding dress with a design house that you are so
104
passionate about like i valentino was my dream uh house to collaborate with on on the wedding look
105
and i was so i don't know every time i come in here i cry because they were so kind and
106
And they really went over the top for me.
107
Oh, my God.
108
Every time it's something in the, they put it in the air.
109
It makes you emotional.
110
But really, the whole thing is just special because it's my wedding.
111
You know, it's all of it, of course.
112
Thank you.

話し手はgonna, I'm, we'reなど、短縮形や弱形を50回使っています。聞こえたとおりの短い形で発音しましょう。

  • /v/ — /b/ にならないように、上の歯を下唇に当てる: veil /veɪl/, elevate /ˈɛləveɪt/, overwhelm /ˌoʊ.vɚˈwɛlm/, sleeve /sliv/, vibe /vaɪb/

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
