Royal wedding: The dress in detail

1. The 1936 Cartier "halo" tiara was lent to the bride by The Queen.


2. The veil is made of layers of soft, ivory silk tulle with a trim of hand-embroidered flowers.

3. The bodice, narrowed at the waist and padded at the hips, is a hallmark of McQueen's designs.

4. For the dress, individual flowers were hand-cut from lace and sewn onto ivory silk tulle. 

5. The train measures 2m 70cm.
 
6. The shoes (hidden), made of satin with hand-embroidered lace, were also Alexander McQueen.
