Kate's wedding dress

Was wondering if anyone would like to join me in a chat about Kate's dress. Most people seem to think she'll be walking down the aisle in something silky and slinky but I don't think this would be appropriate for the abbey, I was thinking there might be quite a bit of lace involved.

Yes Ann and Zara's horse dance move is inspired.

purplebrickroad · 16/04/2011 19:27

ValiumBandwitch · 16/04/2011 19:29

NonnoMum · 16/04/2011 21:20

I've emailed it to our kate, she "likes" it on FB Wink

drivingmissdaisy great thread.

ivykaty44 - love it. Was going to link to this myself! I think it is respectful but fun! I really think the 'Princess Anne' and 'Camilla' lookie-likies look very likie!

Hatterbox quite like your choices. Thank you for the link to Archbishop Rowan Williams.

Insomnia11 Like your choice but very conservative.

Didn't William first spot Kate in a fashion show? Maybe something unusual would be good.

Caoimhe I love your dress - the middle picture.

Like these, especially the cinderella one in the middle and the pone to right with long shawl but no veil

I reckon McQueen or Temperley with long sleeves. Lace and hair down.

I think I read somewhere that she can't wear a tiara into the abbey, she can put one on once she's married.

hopefulgum · 17/04/2011 09:39

Some gorgeous gown's ladies. I can't wait to see Kate's dress.

I love Collette Dinnigan's dresses, but that's mainly because I'm an Aussie.here I like the snowwhite collection, but I don't actually see her wearing any of them.

HouseOfBamboo · 17/04/2011 11:12

Carocaro - yes I reckon something along the lines of the Grace Kelly dress - I can see her with some sort of high buttoned jackety affair.

I hope she has got / will get rid of those awful blonde highlights, she is SO not a Germanic blonde type.

Caoimhe · 17/04/2011 11:27

Love the video - really, really funny!!!! Smile

Lots of fab dresses on here. Thinking along the lines of lace, this is very pretty - no idea who the couple are!!! Dress with lace

This one is nice too but I don't think she'll go for off-the-shoulder.

Caoimhe · 17/04/2011 11:34

Imagine if she walked up the aisle in this - that would wake a few people up!!!!

for embroidery lovers

diddl · 17/04/2011 11:46

She won´t do strapless, will she?

wombatinwaiting · 17/04/2011 14:24

I dont' think strapless either diddl.

I love your number 3 italian greyhoud

Italiangreyhound · 17/04/2011 22:13

Hopefulgum love the Snow White collection! I could see her in that actually.

Caoimhe really like the dress with lace and the Princess Claire of Belgium.

How cool if Kate ended up looking on this thread for inspiration!

serin · 17/04/2011 22:53

Yuck to strapless, the world is sick of half naked brides.

I think she will go for vintage lace, hair up save for a few tendrils and flowers in her hair.

Bouquet of lily of the valley.

Personally I think Optimisms dress way back on ?page one was gorgeous.

My kids are so excited about this wedding. Smile

Well if this is true its so flippin' unfair that they leaked it, even though I've read that there are three dresses. I think its great they are auctioning it for charity
