Royal Wedding: Pippa's Maid of Honor Dress

Pippa's maid of honor dress is stunning and also designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen.  The column dress fits her body beautifully.  I couldn't help but wonder why she decided to wear white until I found out the different tradition in England.  There is an old superstition saying that bridesmaids and groomsmen can ward off evil spirits by dressing similarly to the bride and groom.

The dress has the same button detail down the back and lace detailing as Kate's.  It also has an ivory satin-based crepe.  The cowl neckline on the dress is absolutely beautiful.
