First in Line to See The Wedding Dress of the Decade: The Queen and The Duchess Herself!

Its sheer beauty elicited a collective gasp from the world.

Now, the Duchess of Cambridge will be sharing her wedding dress with the nation all over again, this time up close.

The stunning gown is to take pride of place at an exhibition about the royal wedding in Buckingham Palace this summer, with tickets priced at £17.50.

Blogger Note: Queen did not like the way the dress was presented - not on a mannequin. But there is no doubt, the dress and other items worn by the Duchess are spectacular. Click to see more pictures from HelloMagazine.com

Brooches, usually worn on the left shoulder, were a favourite for the royal and the Queen was believed to have over 100 in her collection. A selection that would go with an outfit were presented to her - usually three at a time - by her senior dresser and confidante Angela Kelly on special trays that once belonged to Queen Mary. The royal had a wide variety of different brooches which she often wore with her usual pearl earrings and necklace, including a spray of flowers brooch by the people and government of Australia during her Coronation tour of 1954./
