This is how Princess Eugenie broke royal tradition with her second wedding dress
If, like us, you were totally and utterly obsessed with Princess Eugenie's second wedding dress by designer Zac Posen. You may have missed the subtle way she broke royal tradition with her choice.
Changing into a second dress for the private evening reception is something that both Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle did at their weddings, but as The Daily Mail spotted, Eugenie took a slightly different path.
Not only did she opt for an American designer, instead of a British one - Kate wore Alexander McQueen and Meghan wore Stella McCartney - But she also went for a blush pink colour, rather than traditional ivory/white. A colour which designer Zac said was inspired by "the blush of an English rose".
For her reception dress, Kate Middleton changed into a Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, satin ivory gown. The Duchess teamed it with a diamante belt and fluffy cropped cardigan.
Meghan Markle went down the slinky route in a halter neck dress by designer Stella McCartney. Unlike Kate she kept the accessories to a minimum, apart from Princess Diana's aquamarine ring - a gift from Prince Harry.
Taking to Instagram, designer Zac Posen revealed how excited he was to dress Princess Eugenie for her big day,
"It was an incredible honour to create this dress for HRH Princess Eugenie on her wedding day. Her grace, elegance and strength perfectly embody everything I could hope for in a woman wearing our design."
We need a third royal wedding and we need it now!
