This time last year there was only one wedding dress we were looking forward to seeing... Kate Middleton's. But while Sarah Burton's universally applauded design satisfied every fashionista's craving for a royal wedding gown, the Duchess was far from the only bride who impressed.
Lace was a strong theme, with everyone from Lily Allen and Reese Witherspoon choosing to embellish their dresses with different styles of the sophisticated material. Meanwhile, this year's other royal brides, Zara Phillips and Charlene of Monaco, went for more simple ivory silk dresses.
