Who could ever forget Pippa Middleton’s iconic bridesmaid dress from her sister Kate Middleton’s 2011 wedding to Prince William? After stepping out in a one-of-a-kind satin gown, designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, Pippa became an overnight sensation – and ever since brides and bridesmaids alike have been replicating her look. Luckily, Ghost is selling this near-identical version for £225 – coincidentally one of Duchess Kate’s favourite brands – and you can shop it in five other colours.

Uber flattering, the ‘Hollywood Sylvia Dress’ features an elegantly draped cowl neck, capped sleeves, and a tuck detail in the back. Fully lined for a seamless and sleek look, this floor-grazing dress is finished with a delicate fishtail hem which nods to old Hollywood glamour. Our advice is to act quickly – this dreamy dupe is selling like hotcakes. The ivory version is still available to shop, but if you’re looking for something less traditional, you can shop it in five other colours – pink, dusty green, navy, oyster and orchid bloom.

Ten years later, it’s hardly surprising that we’re all still obsessed with Pippa’s bridesmaid dress. A game-changing moment for Duchess Kate’s little sister, Pippa instantly became known as ‘Her Royal Hotness’ and social media was flooded with favourable comments about her – including praise from Justin Bieber!
Following the ceremony, her arrival at the Cambridges’ evening reception in a full-length green Alice Temperley gown was another major triumph. That one day led to all sorts of media offers, many of which the brunette bombshell politely turned down, although she did publish Celebrate, a book on entertaining, as well as pen a number of newspaper columns.

Pippa regards the hoopla over her appearance on that glorious day with self-deprecating good humour. “As I have found out, recognition has its upside, its downside and – you may say – its backside,” she later joked.
