Older Sister Pippa is Newest Star in the Royal Wedding Day


Not only was Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, the star of the royal wedding, her younger sister, Pippa, made a favorable impression too. First it was her stunning Maid of Honor dress made by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen. Next, it was her chemistry with the Best Man, Prince Harry and then being dubbed the newest bachelorette. Now the media has a royal insider, fashionista and socialite to whet their appetites for months and years to come. The House of Windsor has come to life again.

Pippa Nearly Stole the Show from the Bride, Her Older Sister

When we first saw the 27-year-old arrive at Westminster Abbey with the adorable bridesmaids and pages her Royal Maid of Honor ensemble is what caught most people's attention. Pippa Middleton was stunning in her long silhouette white dress with white cap sleeves and a cowl-neck. Her flattering hour glass figure and dark tan was showcased in this beautiful Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen creation.

This was the same designer for Kate's wedding dress. Pippa's was made from heavy satin crepe, while the back was simple with only satin covered buttons. Her only accessories were a ring and teardrop diamond earrings from her parents. Usually Maid of Honors at weddings tend to stay in the background while the bride gets all the attention. Pippa managed to do both very effectively without ever upstaging her older sister.

Even though she received enormous accolades for her dress and duties as the Royal Maid of Honor from fashion icons many women said they would wear it as a destination wedding dress by the ocean.
