Kate wears Joseph Scala dress to wedding dress exhibition with The Queen

In July 2011, Duchess Kate enjoyed a private viewing of her wedding dress exhibition at Buckingham Palace with The Queen.

The wedding dress, which was designed by Alexander McQueen was on display until October of the same year.  It was displayed along with Kate’s shoes, tiara, earrings and veil.

From the Royal Collection’s press release:

The Duchess of Cambridge’s wedding dress, designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, will go on display at Buckingham Palace during the annual Summer Opening (23 July – 3 October 2011).  The Duchess chose British brand Alexander McQueen for the beauty of its craftsmanship and its respect for traditional workmanship and the technical construction of clothing.  Her Royal Highness worked closely with Sarah Burton in formulating the design of her dress.

Kate’s outfit:

To the exhibition, Kate wore a pale coloured V-Neck dress by London-based fashion designer Joseph. The dress is known as the “Scala Stretch Crepe Dress”.

The dress was available at Harrods for £395, where it was described as follows:

A classically tailored piece in an on-trend neutral hue, Joseph’s Scala dress epitomises the brand’s effortlessly elegant design aesthetic. Pale pink dress Mock wrap design Deep V-neckline. Cropped sleeves. Zip closure to side.
