lela rose

monique lhuillier

the first royal wedding since princess di's is fast approaching and every designer in the world wants to get their hands on the princess-to-be, kate middleton!  sadly, she must choose a british designer, but every major house in the world has given their inputs.  karl wants her in knee tall boots (don't we all?) and a victorian ruffle lace neck, nanette lepore is envisioning her in a sugar-spun-esque concoction, and chris benz wants yellow (see! i'm telling you, yellow is EVERYTHING right now!), and prabal gurung's mind went to classic and chic with a fabulous set of asymmetric ruffles.  i love gucci's simplicity, and i think the best drawing goes to valentino..great dress and great likliness of miss middleton..so delightful..but my obvious favorite is christian lacroix!!!!  it's kind of fierce revolutionary war hero meets queen elizabeth meets...a veil that is exploding christmas lights and fireflies!!  

and that's just too perfect.
