Kate Middleton's Wedding Dress

Or more appropriately, the gown worn by Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge.

I must say, Kate's wedding dress was absolutely beautiful! Very elegant, understated and totally modern. I've never been a big fan of long trains, however the proportions of the garment seemed perfect.  What immediately caught my attention was the detailing of English & French Chantilly lace accents on the bodice of the gown.  The romantic details mastered with a touch of modernity assures a timeless appeal.
 
I'm not surprised to hear that this was designed by Sarah Burton from the House of Alexander McQueen. This couture house has a reputation of delivering beautiful poetic pieces and incredible gowns.... much like a fairy tale blended with a modern touch.

It was wonderful to be swept away by the enchanted romance for a few hours, but brides-to-be shouldn't fret....I'm sure the copies are being stitched ASAP.

Best Wishes to William & Kate!
