Yesterday the wait was finally over, not just for Kate and Will but also for the rest of us who have been desparate to know who was going to design 'the dress' and what it would look like. Of course after all of the waiting and speculating the dress did not disappoint. A dress by Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen was a brave choice for the Princesss to be but it definitely paid off. Although McQueen's signature style is notably different to Kate's usual classic and understated style, Sarah Burton rose to the challenge of creating a dress that was fitting for a princess and it suited Kate amazingly well. I loved the vintage look of the dress and similarites with Grace Kelly's 1956 wedding dress, it is so classic and definitely iconic. A great moment for British fashion.

The wedding guests and what they choose to wore is likely to be greatly scritinised, discussed and analysed over the coming days. Overall most of the outfits were classic suits and with a just few of the royal wedding guests choosing to sport more attention grabbing statement hats and dresses.


Tara PT really stood out in a scuptural royal blue cocktail dress with matching statement hat and shoes.
Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie both opted for statement Phillip Treacy hats. I am not sure if either the outfits, the hats or both together just looked too much. What do you think?


There was a severe lack of floral dresses at the royal wedding but Princess Anne did make up for this in her lilac and lime green floral coat.

Other notable looks were the orange floral hat worn by Miriam Gonzalez Durantez, wife of Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg, the Queen in yellow, the perfect colour for such a happy day and the very stylish nude and neutral colours of Lady Eliza, Lady Kitty and Lady Amelia, the daughters of Earl Spencer. The brides sister Pippa also looked amazing in her simple white dress.

What did you think of Kate's dress and which guest outfits did you like best?
