A wedding gown of perfection


How amazing can one woman look? Kate Middleton, now Catherine Dutchess of Cambridge is one of my favourite royal brides to date.

The V-neck compliments her beautiful neck and the lace is a very wonderful design. I am blown amay by the back of the dress, which shows of the McQueen signature tailoring skills of designer Sarah Burton and adds an element of surprise that catches the eye and underlines Kate's youth and confidence in adding a modern spice to the conservative rules of royal wedding gowns.

I am a true fan of the subtle brown smokey eye, that seems just a bit more fashion forward than the usual "blushing bride" makeup, and she is herself with those gorgeous dark eye makeup that we usually see her with.

I was surprised by her half up hairdo, but it is young and modern and it suits the dress since the top of it is lace and sheer, which makes it light and able to style with a hair down do.

When I was 15 and first caught sight of Alexander McQeens un-matchable talent, I swore that I would one day wear his design. I was in shock when he passed away, but fortunately Sarah Burton took over his label and continued to follow his visions of creativity, innovation, surprise element, wonderful craft skills, amazing materials, extraordinary looks and ambitions. I salute Kate for choosing Burton and thereby honoring Alexander's great work and his importance for British fashion.
