Pippa Middleton’s bikini photo sparks furor in the royal family

Duchess of Cambridge Catherine Middleton’s sister Pippa Middleton is the toast of paparazzi at the moment. Kate might have been the bride at the Royal wedding, but it was Pippa who stole all the limelight with her derriere contour making more news than the Bride and the Groom! The new interest in Pippa also brought about a few skeletons the brunette beauty may have been keeping in her closet. Pippa has been exposed partying in her bra and underwear. The Middleton family is said to be furious about the whole incident. And it is believed that Kate’s parents will take action over semi-nude pictures of Pippa which they think has been let out by ‘betrayed’ friends. Any photos or actions that may lead to the embarrassment or humiliation of the Royal family will not be tolerated – which could explain why the photos have been successfully stopped from circulation.

Replica of Kate Middleton’s Wedding Dress to hit stores

A replica of Duchess of Cambridge Catherine Middleton’s wedding dress, created by designers Michelle and Henry Roth, is set to hit the stores. Catherine’s dress was kept safely under wraps until the royal wedding. Sources reveal that Roth’s had began making detailed sketches for a replica just after the wedding ceremony concluded. The designers sell their creations exclusively to Kleinfeld Bridal Salon, the largest wedding boutique in the US. CBS News reports, "Kate’s dress is a serious game-changer and the Roth’s are determined to have the perfect couture gown, inspired by Middleton’s, available immediately". The designers have been busy working on every detail of their "Kate Dress" and have examined every detail of the original. They reportedly visited New York’s Garment District to find the perfect fabric and soon had women waiting breathlessly for their chance to try on the creation.

Britain’s Daily Mirror says, New York fashion house Faviana is also attempting to cash in on the interest in Middleton’s dress, introducing a gown named "Princess Kate". The dress, made of satin with chiffon French lace, is now ready for production and is available in two shades.

Designers praise Kate’s classic wedding gown

The world’s most high-profile fashion designers have praised Prince Williams bride Kate Middleton for her "classic" and "beautiful" wedding dress. The brunette beauty unveiled her highly-anticipated wedding gown to the world on her big day in London, putting an end to months of rumours over who had been given the task of designing the famous frock. Middleton chose Alexander McQueen designer Sarah Burton to make her wedding gown."She is very elegant. The dress is classic and goes very well in the Westminster decor. I love the modest veil with the Queen Mother’s Thirties scroll tiara and balanced volume of the whole gown. She’s radiant. She never was so beautiful,” said legendary designer Karl Lagerfeld.

Donatella Versace said, "Kate’s dress was beautiful. She looked very regal," while Hubert de Givenchy added, "The dress is very simple and very nice. The veil is a little flat, but because she has such a lovely face, she can afford to wear it this way. She is very pretty."

Kate Middleton wants Victoria’s dresses for honeymoon

British royal bride Kate Middleton has expressed a desire to wear former Spice Girl-turned-fashion designer Victoria Beckham’s evening dresses during her honeymoon with Prince William.

The 29 year old, Middleton, called up Victoria to say she loved her outfits after Victoria sent her a selection of her spring-summer collection. The bride-to-be also asked Victoria for general advice on evening wear during the romantic break after her April 29 wedding.

"Victoria is thrilled Kate loved her dresses and was only too happy to give her fashion tips. The ladies get on very well and Victoria can’t believe she is helping to dress the future Queen," said a source.

Victoria, who is expecting her fourth child with ace footballer David Beckham, had earlier spoken about how she admires Middleton’s dressing sense.

"She is a beautiful young girl, she has a wonderful figure and I think she wears clothes beautifully. I would be honoured if she were to wear my designs," she had said.

Kate Middleton gets Jaguar fleet for wedding ceremony

Kate Middleton has been given a 500,000-pound fleet of luxury cars so that she gets to the church on time for her wedding, after the British royal bride said she does not want to arrive in a horse-drawn carriage.

Palace officials have taken delivery of seven new Jaguar XJ limos for the wedding scheduled for April 29.

The British-made cars were dispatched from the company earlier this month.

Kate had said she does not want to arrive at the Westminster Abbey in a traditional horse-drawn carriage.

Palace officials said the royal Rolls-Royces and Bentleys would be "too stuffy" for her and her groom, Prince William.

"When the Prince of Wales was attacked by students in his Rolls-Royce, it sent a message out about what people think is acceptable," an aide said.

Vogue editor urges Kate to pick McQueen dress

It has emerged that the editor of British Vogue, Alexandra Shulman urged Kate Middleton to choose a wedding dress designed by the Alexander McQueen label. The recommendation has apparently added to the speculation that Sarah Burton, the fashion house’s creative director, will design the royal bride’s gown. Buckingham Palace began canvassing for guidance on behalf of Middleton shortly after her engagement was announced in 20110. Stylists and editors were asked to name their ‘top choice’ for the coveted commission. Fashion industry sources confirmed that Shulman had been approached and had recommended the McQueen label. "She was asked for her first choice and that choice was McQueen," said a source.

However, Buckingham Palace has refused to comment and McQueen insiders have strongly denied they have won the assignment.
