Simple was the story of the day. And that is surely due to the politics at hand. Kate is no dummy.
The ex-Kate Middleton got to wear two major dresses today. The wedding dress, which we liked, and then the party frock for the reception, which we like. Both were designed by Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen, and neither of which were done in the tradition of the House of McQueen. Instead, we have two very lovely, very simple and elegant dresses. The cocktail party dress with cropped sleeve angora sweater was tasteful and understated. You got to love Kate for insisting on simplicity, based on how challenging the British economy is. She played this out like a fiddle. And if it wasn’t her idea, well, she should take the credit for it. Now, I just wonder if Sarah was auditioning for the job at Christian Dior by doing an un-McQueen thing. Just sayin’.
I am sure the tragic fashionistas are wishing that Kate would have worn this number.
Or this.
Or this.
Or this. And all I say to them is FOTZ!
WHY WHY WHY was she wearing an angora sweater over that perfect dress?
Because she lost too much weight and would have been trashed!
She looks so, so skinny. I love it!
