Hats and dresses


I'm telling you, Cousin Horsey, everyone who's anyone is now getting a replica Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen wedding dress!


I just have to have one.


I've been told this nine-year-old is the best couturier in Brisbane! She's young, edgy, a little bit Emo. And she knows her tissues.


Oh Horsey, do I look like Princess Beatrice?

 
 I sure did love her Treacy hat!


Do I look like a Duchess?


We look beautiful.




Did you invite that pair of idiots?


I thought they were polo friends of your father.


Hoorah!

    oh I do love a wedding, and making the dress from tissue would be handy too, cause I do love to cry at weddings♥
    Love the Princess 'Hat'

    Horsey makes a beautiful bride.
    Have you seen how there was a commemorative cupcake in honour of Beatrice's hat? Some people are quick off the mark! I admire that.

    Too funny! Don't you hate it when your parents invite uncool guests to your party? x

    Lyndel, that's nice to hear. I do worry about Mr Royal Doulton. It's just two Horses being stupid.

    OK, best royal wedding post ever. I am finding it very difficult not to make Camilla jokes however.

    The gown, divine. The hat, spot on. The guests, a little dodgy. I'm sure Child 1 will get the call up to design for the next royal wedding. Which'll make you the Royal (Wedding Designer's) Mother. Better keep the blog going.

    Oh giddy up, that is the most delightful wedding ever!! What tissue couture, brilliant. Hey, have another IKEA giveaway, you'd love it!! Maybe if you won in a few years your seamstress could cut up the IKEA bedding & go a bit more Von Trapp than McQueen?? Love your work MmMC, love Posie

    Priceless! Loving the Beatrice hat. What is worrying is that the FP horsey looked a darn sight more attractive than she did.
