Kate Middleton's Wedding Dress Fails to Set Trends: Did You Like the Look?

I liked the look, and certainly don't agree about the sleeves. I think they add more class to the look than most brides seem to try to have anymore. I could never appreciate a tea-length wedding dress. Tea-length is, quite frankly, NOT a gown, and I think that brides should wear gowns.

I loved her wedding gown! It was absolutely gorgeous and very, very classy.

That dress is as trend-setting as a linen tablecloth but with less imagination applied to its design.

Personally, I did.

She has the face and body for a simply gown.I thought she looked beautiful.
Princess Di's gown was very ugly..

It was HER dress. But it wasn't in sync with much of what I see in ads today, so why would any modern bridezilla be swayed by it?

I actually really liked her wedding dress. I thought it was very elegant and she looked very beautiful in it. Just what a princess should wear for her wedding!

love it

..I guess...this is the first time I've seen it....I wonder if wearing it would've gotten me out of being drafted...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The dress is beautiful, but not very many people will be able to afford it.

I can't believe women aren't walking around in wedding dresses *cough*sarcasm*cough*


she obviously looks beautiful in it, but I think I like her sisters dress more.

I thought she looked very nice and classy. Like a lady.

I think Ms Kate would look good in anything!

gorgeous look but few people want something they can only dance at a ball in :)

Frontal view:

nothing to it..borriinngg!

It was classy.

I loved it, especially the veil. But I liked mine better...it was my great-grandmothers, my grandmother's, and my Mama's.

I liked it, it had an almost timeless look to it.

I did like that dress. Very tasteful, lady-like, elegant and ultra pretty. And I'm glad it isn't setting some trend so that everybody goes out and wants a dress just like Kate. How boring is that?

Yes, she was a beautiful bride with a dress fit for a princess.

She most likely will not look back on it in 20 years and be horrified at the way she looked.

Thought it was unique.

I loved her wedding gown..very plain and simple but still very stylish to me.

I thought she looked gorgeous.

Besides, weddings are different for everyone. Wear the dress you want to wear, not what's "in style".

Tradition is always better for weddings. Can you imagine looking at the framed wedding photo above your mantle in 20 years and laughing, or gasping in horror and taking it down!

I like it except for the backend. Never did understand why people think wedding dresses had to trail a dozen feet behind them.

She had to have a train to have any presence in Westminster Abbey. The place is huge. The long train serves to "fill up" some of that space.

Really? That's the only purpose of long trains?

The dress was pretty, but it was kind of blah. I absolutely hated that garish thing that Diana wore when she married Charles. That huge skirt with those billowing sleeves and that endless train - her dress itself indicated she was overcompensating. Kate's dress was quite different and showed a totally different mindset. So, from that standpoint, I liked the dress. But it was not what I was expecting. I guess I wanted her to blow us all away, and she looked lovely but rather blah. What I really hated was the way her hair was done. She has such lovely hair, and when I read that she intended to wear it down, I was happy about that and thought, "Smart girl, you know what looks good on you." Then they pulled it back and tucked it under somehow creating a very nerdy look. I use nerdy simply for lack of a better word for it. I did not like the veil or the tiara. Now take a look at Pippa - just standing there with that long hair falling down her back and that plain dress clinging to her like a very fashionable glove. She made the splash that day. It's a shame for Kate that happened, but she should have had the foresight to see that her sister was going to get all the attention in that very form fitting dress.

Elegant, sexy, absolutely beautiful!!!! *^*

Mine was better.

Do you get my point?

People shouldn't follow 'trends' for anything, much less a wedding dress. It's your wedding wear what makes you comfortable, not because it's trending.

I really dont like Wedding Dresses with long sleeves but her's was Gorgeous :D
Its a really beautiful gown.

Her sisters dress was better looking, but my favorite royal wedding dress was the one Crownprincess Victoria of Sweden wore.

I think it looks beautiful on her even though it isn't my style. She rocked it...FOR HER. I personally got married on a Friday the 13th in a blood red/burgundy colour with my hair done curly and blonde!. Everyone's wedding should tell their own story, in my humble opinion, not someone else's.

Too proper for the girls who want to bare all for any occasion.

Yes, I did. She looked beautiful.

I think everyone liked the dress but I didn't believe it'd set for a new trend. She kind of went old style with the lacey thing she did over her chest and arms. I think brides prefer showing skin more so than what Princess Kate did.

Everyone who I know watched the wedding, loved her dress but wouldn't want to wear it for their own wedding.
