Knockoff Royal Wedding Dresses Make You the Next Kate Middleton
Prince William and Kate Middleton tied the knot on April 29, 2011. Huge economic interests were brought to United Kingdom. Nearly 23 million Americans, a full 38 percent of Canadians and certainly all British people watched such a grand ceremony. Everything is meticulously arranged and the most secretive one should be Kate’s wedding dress. Here shows you a clear picture of Kate Middleton’s royal wedding dress.
Lots of a-list artists like Sophie Cranston, Bruce Oldfield, Alice Temperley, and even Victoria Beckham were supposed to be the designer or Kate Middleton’s wedding gown. But finally, Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen was the front-runner, who helped Kate Middleton maintain and also update royal brides’ gorgeous appearances. Only 5 hours after the wedding, knockoff wedding dress inspired by Kate’s wedding gown had been released. Here are definitely two knockoff Kate Middleton wedding dresses.
This knockoff is from the well-known brand A.B.S. by Allen Schwartz. After duplicating so many less-expensive versions of red-carpet dresses in record time, this copy Kate Middleton’s wedding gown is absolutely another masterpiece.
For fashion-conscious people, it’s exactly high time to decode evergreen forces on royal or just Kate’s wedding gown. Below, let’s take a closer look at that elegant wedding dress.
Kate Middleton also joined in the design of her wedding dress. This ivory satin and lace dress reaches to the floor, seeming simple, yet graceful, elegant and aristocratic. It features a v-neck, sweetheart, long sleeves, a full skirt with train that is 2 meters and 70cm long and a veil.
The tiara is on loan from new grandmother-in-law - the Queen at present. Made by Cartier in 1936, bought by the Duke of York for his Duchess, presented to the present Queen, the “halo” tiara really has a long history. Extreme exquisite is flattered on Kate Middleton’s wedding gown by refined craftsmanship and respect for traditional workmanship. Kate looked forward to combining tradition with modernity and advocated truth to materials. Embracing an understated design theme, Burton gave the cut and any intricate accessory a unique, modern, romantic and dolce character.
Lace appliqué on bodice and skirt were hand-made by the Royal School of Needlework, based at Hampton Court Palace. Carrickmacross lace-making technique, originating in 1820s in Ireland was adopted, ensuring amazingly visual and tactile effect. Rose, thistle, daffodil and shamrock-styled flower decorations were hand-cut from lace and then sewn on ivory silk tulle.
About the design: French Chantilly lace was used throughout the bodice, skirt and the underskirt trim. The bodice flares out under the waist, really making every breath Kate Middleton took more charming. The narrowed waist and padded hip almost become hallmarks for Alexander McQueen. But this time, 58 gazar and organza covered buttons fastened by Rouleau loops on the back and an underskirt made from silk tulle trimmed with Cluny lace seemed more luxurious.
About the fabric: with extensive research by Sarah Burton and her team, all fabrics used on Kate Middleton’s wedding dress were sourced from British companies.
About the Veil: layers of supple ivory silk tulle were used to make the veil, with a trim of hand-embroidered flowers.
Except Kate Middleton, her younger sister Pippa was undoubtedly an eye-catching hit on the red carpet. Her ivory Alexander McQueen cap-sleeved column dress designed also by Sarah Burton even stole the show on the bride. Let’s take a closer look here.
It’s said Pippa Middleton’s bridesmaid dress had already graced the red carpet months ago, worn by Cameron Diaz on 2010 Golden Globes ceremony. Anyway, Pippa’s heavy, ivory satin-based crepe dress, with a cowl front and the same button detail and lace trim with Kate’s wedding dress, did help her look stunning. The smooth, lightsome, simple yet elegant dress looks great with the floral diamond earrings by jeweler Robinson Pelham and a headpiece made of lily of the valley blooms. Likewise, just a short time after Pippa Middleton arrived at Westminster Abbey wearing her ivory satin dress by Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen, copies of this dress were released. Here you see one of knockoff Pippa Middleton bridesmaid dress.
