As is standard for royal brides – Meghan Markle changed out of dress No.1 and swapped over to her second offering for evening celebrations.
All we can say is… she looks incredible. In fact, we reckon we prefer the latter gown.
Stunners.
Designed by Stella McCartney, this suits her sooooo well.
The Palace confirmed:
“The Bride’s evening dress is designed by Stella McCartney and is a bespoke lily white high neck gown made of silk crepe.
“The Bride is wearing shoes from Aquazurra made in silky satin, with nude mesh, with soles painted in baby blue.”
And while it’s unlikely we’ll be able to afford bespoke Stella McCartney anytime soon… at least Boohoo.com has a version that is oh-so affordable.
How affordable, you ask? Well, how’s about €24 affordable?
The Faith high-neck extreme split front maxi dress is described by the online retailer as thus:
“Spin your way through cocktail hour in our selection of party dresses.
“Get your glam on in sequins, glitter, disco metallics and plunging necklines, or opt for a classic LBD and a dark lip for an equally killer look.”
Fair play.
It’s not unusual for royal brides to make a costume-change. Back in 2011, Kate also changed from her day-time gown into something a little more party-friendly.
Both her dresses were designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen; the second dress included a diamonte belt and a sweetheart neckline.
