| Alexander McQueen by Sarah Burton, F/W 2011 |
THE question that is on everyone's lips is
What will she wear? She refers, of course, to the bride of the decade, Miss Catherine Middleton. Speculation is running high that this Cinderella fairy princess story will have the bride of Prince William walking down the aisle in a gown by Sarah Burton for
Alexander McQueen.
I'm not normally a gal that takes a bet, but given the queenly inspiration of the Fall/Winter 2011 McQueen show, it seems like a sure thing. And it would be a such a fitting tribute to the man, the label, Sarah Burton and British fashion. But I guess I'll have to wait until the morning of April 29th to find out if I'm right.

What will she wear? is also the title of an exhibition in celebration of wedding fashion at
The Fashion Museum in Bath, England. Thirty exquisite white, cream, and ivory wedding dresses were selected from the museum's extensive collection are currently on display. Although many of the gowns are over 100 years old, there is a white lace wedding dress with an asymmetric hem by Alexander McQueen which was worn in Summer 2010.
Rosemary Harden, Manager of the
Fashion Museum said "
we are aiming to show the richness and variety of the white wedding dress down the ages, as well as the enduring romance of the traditional style." Also on display are a selection of framed sepia photographs of wedding couture dresses, which are part of a previously unseen archive by the Paris House of Worth.
