We just witnessed a real-life fairytale with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s wedding ceremony, and the one aspect of the #RoyalWedding we were eagerly waiting for was revealed to us. Who was the designer who designed the royal bride-to-be’s wedding dress? The name was kept under the wraps till this very date, but that did not reduce the speculation that had built up around it. With the rules to abide by, we couldn’t wait to see the dress and to know who was the lucky designer to design the wedding dress that will go down in history.
We got the first glimpse of the gown when Meghan arrived in the car. What was clearly visible was the boat neckline, the veil and the stellar tiara. Her entry at the St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle was the moment everyone was waiting for. After speculation of so many designers, Meghan Markle surprised us all by wearing an haute couture gown from Givenchy designed by Clare Waight Keller. Clare described the experience to Glamour UK magazine:
It is truly an honour to have been given the opportunity to closely collaborate with Meghan Markle on such a remarkable occasion.
The simple and classic silhouette of the dress made a stunning statement, but the elaborate veil and the tiara stole the show for us. Clare also added the intricate work that went into the making of the exquisite veil and the importance of it:
Ms. Markle expressed the wish of having all 53 countries of the Commonwealth with her on her journey through the ceremony. Ms. Waight Keller designed a veil representing the distinctive flora of each Commonwealth country united in one spectacular floral composition.
The tiara also holds a lot of significance as it was the Queen Mary Diamond Bandeau. It completed the traditional yet romantic look. Her hair was strategically styled in a bun underneath the veil and embellished by the tiara. The beauty look was all about the bridal glow with the au naturel feel with subtle smokey eyes.
She definitely stunned us all in this elegant and classic bridal gown. This #RoyalWedding look would be remembered by all for its intricate details and sense of romance.
