ROYAL WEDDING 2018 - Meghan Markle’s Givenchy Wedding Dress Obviously Cost Less Than Kate Middleton’s

MEGHAN Markle turned heads in a stunning dress designed by Clare Waight Keller when she married Prince Harry at Windsor.

Here's everything you need to know about the price tag of the Givenchy dress and how it compares to the one worn by Kate Middleton...

Meghan Markle's wedding dress is from the Givenchy design house - named after French designer Hubert de Givenchy. Givenchy has also famously created dresses for Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Collins.

The designer of Meghan's dress was British designer Clare Waight Keller. The dress has an understated design with an underskirt in triple silk organza and a long flowing train.

Meghan Markle's dress had a long train which was carried by Jessica Mulroney's sons John and Brian. Clare Waight Keller, 47, is a British designer from Birmingham.

She has previously worked at Calvin Klein and Ralph Lauren. In 2017 she joined Givenchy as artistic director of haute couture. Meghan chose to work with Keller “for her timeless and elegant aesthetic, impeccable tailoring, and relaxed demeanour."

Kate Middleton wore a Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen gown when she tied the knot with Prince William in 2011.

Like Meghan's dress it also had long sleeves but was more embellished with a lace design pattern.

We don't yet know how much Meghan's dress cost but Royal expert Kate Nicholl revealed that Meghan would go for a dress with a far more modest price tag than Kate’s.

Kate explained to Entertainment Tonight: “There have been reports that [Meghan’s] considering spending hundreds of thousands of pounds on a wedding dress. I think that’s incredibly unlikely.

“Kate Middleton's dress is rumoured to have cost £250,000. It was her parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, who paid for that bill.

“I think it is very unlikely that Meghan would spend more than that and in doing so try and upstage a future queen.

"I don’t think she's going to want to get royal life off to a start where she's criticised for spending something like £400,000 on a wedding dress.”
