The mystery of the month! What Meghan Markle’s wedding dress will look like? We’ve found out that Ralph & Russo will be the designer for that dress. Would you like to learn the details of the future princess’s bridal gown? How do you think, did the designer destroy the sketches, as with Princess Diana’s dress?
From a sunny London, for once, and this is really remarkable – this British newspaper is claiming to have details of Meghan Markle's wedding dress. The dress worn by the bride the most closely guarded and biggest secret of any royal wedding. This is something that designers go to extreme lengths to keep under wraps.
The world first saw Diana's dress when it burst out of the carriage. Ivory taffeta with 10,000 pearls and a 25-foot-long train. The sketches, reportedly, destroyed so they wouldn't be leaked to the press.
Kate's lace and silk creation was sewn in a locked room, curtains drawn, no cleaners allowed.
And now, days to go before Megan's wedding, dress rumors are flying. The Daily Mail citing multiple royal and fashion industry sources, saying Megan will wear a Ralph & Russo hand-stitched heavily beaded, with a $150,000 price tag, paid for by her prince and his family. This Ralph & Russo’s double duchess bridal gown from their spring/summer collection. Designers say Megan's dress will follow a few royal rules.
“She's going to cover all the points of the neckline, the shoulder coverage, the back coverage, no cleavage, long-sleeve. All critical to a royal wedding dress but, at the same time, she has something showing her figure and who she is and what her style is”, says Caroline Castigliano, wedding dress designer.
Friends, like actress Priyanka Chopra, not giving anything away.
– Do you know if she cried when she said yes to the dress?
– Yes! Oh, she did!
The Palace says Prince Harry will see the dress for the first time when Meghan walks into St. George's Chapel. Her mom Doria Ragland riding with her by car up Windsor Castle’s long walk. Her dad Thomas Marco waiting at the chapel to walk her down the aisle. But no maid of honor to smooth the train, like Pippa famously did for sister Kate.
Prince Harry has spent time with Meghan's mom but will be getting to know her dad next week. Her parents arriving early to meet the Queen and their future royal in-laws. And there's the new addition to the family – Prince Louie.
These photos, released over the weekend: a sweet shot of Princess Charlotte cradling her little brother, wearing her big brothers cardigan – taken by mom Kate on Charlotte's birthday last week. Prince Louie will miss the wedding but Charlotte and big brother George are expected to be among the little Page boys and Flower girls.
Another of the Queen's great grandchildren Mia Tindall also, reportedly, in the little wedding party.
– All right. Oh, how cute. Now, back to the…
– Just one more baby.
– Exactly. Okay, back to the wedding dress for a set, Kelly. Now, this Ralph & Russo designer – we hear Beyonce loves this designer. But if we were betting on this wedding dress, will we say that's going to be the designer?
– That's, probably, the safest of all safe bets. I mean, yeah, this is the designer everyone's been talking about. It's the same designer Meghan wore for her engagement photo. And we actually called The Palace, we called Ralph & Russo, trying to get more info. Didn't get a call-back from Ralph & Russo. No comment from The Palace.
– How odd! Very strange!
– I know.
– You had to try. We've never heard of it, so it's probably pretty good.
– Okay, thanks.
