The wedding of Princess Diana's eldest son and Prince Charles is already considered one of the most memorable events of the year. Prince William and Kate Middleton rise to the altar next Friday (29) in London, but preparations for the event are catching the world's attention and are the most talked about subjects in recent weeks. Many details of the ceremony and party are still mystery, so they generate great speculation.
Kate Middleton's wedding dress
One of the biggest secrets, and the best kept so far, is the name of the designer who signs Kate Middleton's wedding dress. Despite many rumors, the names of none of these designers have been confirmed, but guesses were made in Jasper Conran, Erdem Moralioglu, Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen, Sophie Cranston, Bruce Oldfield? One of Princess Diana and Elizabeth Emanuel's favorite designers? Designer chosen for Princess Diana's wedding dress.
Just as the name of the stylist who will dress the future princess is giving the talk, the model of the dress is also a big mystery. The future princess's wish is to show the costume only on her wedding day, but if the model of the dress is released in the press before the ceremony, it is rumored that Kate has chosen two spare models and can change them at any time.
Other rumors are that Kate Middleton may have designed her own dress taking advantage of the experiences she gained from working at a chain of fashion stores. The outfit would be inspired by the Renaissance period, studied by the princess at the College of Art History, and would have a long tail with references to the dress worn by Princess Diana.
The bride's hair and makeup
The future princess has already shown that besides knowing how to put on makeup, likes to use light tones without much extravagance. Its trademark is well-marked eyes, nude mouth and a blush to make the look healthy. As you would have done for your engagement photo shoot, it seems that Kate Middleton will do her own makeup on her wedding day.
After rumors that the princess is going against the royal will and exchanging the crown for a headband of flowers in the hair, the new information is that the bride will not wear any hairstyle. Kate will invest in the fully loose and flowing threads. It may sound simple, but on the day of the ceremony, a team of six hairdressers will work to make the princess's hair flawless.
