Each gown was a masterpiece, but which one takes the crown? Let’s break it down and compare the dresses that made headlines around the world.
There’s something truly magical about watching a royal wedding unfold on television. It’s like we’re all invited to a private ceremony that feels like a dream. But let’s be honest — nothing screams monarchy more than a little friendly competition. And when it comes to wedding dresses, these ladies didn’t just show up; they brought their A-game. So, without further ado, let’s dive into a royal wedding dress showdown and see how Kate, Meghan, and Eugenie stack up against each other.
Queen of Elegance: Kate Middleton's Timeless Gown
When Kate Middleton walked down the aisle on her big day, she was a vision of pure elegance. Her bespoke, long-sleeve wedding gown was designed by the incredibly talented Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen. This dress wasn’t just a piece of clothing; it was a work of art. The gown featured intricate lace appliqués, a stunning silhouette, and a breathtaking train that measured 8.85 feet long. To top it off, Kate accessorized with a stunning Cartier tiara, lent to her by Queen Elizabeth herself. The back of the gown was equally impressive, with 58 organza-covered buttons and Rouleau loops that added a touch of vintage charm. This dress was classic, timeless, and utterly unforgettable.
Meghan Markle's Modern Touch
Meghan Markle’s wedding day was all about simplicity and sophistication. Her gown, designed by the incredibly talented Claire Waight Keller for Givenchy, was a modern masterpiece. The long-sleeve dress featured a form-fitting silhouette, a ballerina neckline, and a breathtaking train that flowed effortlessly behind her. To add a touch of tradition, Meghan wore a five-meter-long veil made from silk tulle, adorned with hand-embroidered flowers in silk threads and organza. The pièce de résistance, however, was Queen Mary’s Sapphire Bandeau Tiara, which she wore with effortless grace. Meghan’s gown was a perfect blend of modernity and tradition, capturing the essence of her unique style.
