[lace] lace dress for Kate

2012-04-05 Thread lacelady
When browsing the Yahoo news page, I found an article about new wax figures of 
Kate and William at Madame Tussauds in London, New York and Amsterdam.  The 
London Kate had her blue engagement dress (copy), New York had a lavendar dance 
dress (copy), but the Amsterdam Kate had a black lace dress (copy) very 
lovely.  

When I tried to copy the URL for you, it wouldn't let me.  And then when I went 
back to the Yahoo home page, the article had disappeared.  I tried searching 
for more information, I found only London and New York stories.  The Amsterdam 
Madame Tussauds dutch languange site has a picture of Kate in the dress but I 
couldn't read any details.  Maybe some of you can find the story.  It was nice 
to see at least one figure wearing lace.

Hi Arachnids,

Here is the URL for the Amsterdam picture of the black lace dress copy.

http://www.madametussauds.com/Amsterdam/OnzeBeelden/Royals/prinsesKate/Default.aspx

The text gives a short description of how Kate and William met and their 
engagement and wedding etc. Also that she wore this dress to the premiere of 
the play War Horse and that it shows Kate from her best side.


Happy lace making,

[lace] lace dress for Kate

2012-04-05 Thread Jean Nathan
My browser automatically translates foreign language web sites. Here's 
what it made of the Madame Tussauds Amsterdam page:


Prince William and Kate Middleton encounter each other as they study art 
history at St. Andrew's University. If the spark is beaten, they try their 
fledgling relationship with all his might to keep secret, but the paparazzi 
feast on every detail that they catch. In 2006, their relationship gets off, 
but they can not miss and even go together, unusual for a prince.


At their engagement in 2010 William gives Kate a special gift: the 
engagement ring of his deceased mother, Lady Di. She is also a bit, he says. 
On April 29, 2011 the couple married at Westminster Abbey in London. Kate 
wears a stylish ivory wedding dress with lace, designed by Sarah Burton of 
the house Alexander McQueen. Millions of people celebrate the wedding with 
it, glued to the tube or live in London. William thanked the public by a 
ride in his blue convertible with his new bride at his side, waving to the 
cheering crowd. On the plate of the car reads: JU5T WED (newly married).




The dress might be a copy but it looks like the lace is identical.
