The Royal Wedding: A Hat Fashion Showcase


April 29, 2011....finally, Kate Middleton became Duchess Catherine, when she wed Prince William, second in line to the British Throne. Together, they became the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Their wedding was the biggest royal wedding in three decades. More than a celebration of love, the royal wedding became a big fashion event, of course, starting with the gorgeous gown that the bride wore, designed by Sarah Burton of the Alexander McQueen fashion house. However, it was not the designer dresses that caught
the attention of many, but the hats, ranging from simple & elegant designs, to eccentric ones like the one that Princess Beatrice wore.

Watching the couple exchange vows, my only wish is that their marriage will last a lifetime, not like William's parents, Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana.

Lady Frederick Windsor's hat looked very elegant

Sorry, but Queen Elizabeth II's hat looked like a cake. :D

In my opinion, the Spanish princess (Princess Letizia) is the prettiest of them all.
