So This Is How Much Meghan Markle's Reception Dress Would Cost You
It was the wedding watched 'round the world: Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's fairytale nuptials at Windsor Castle. While she continues to make well-dressed appearances, includinga major event with the Queen today, we're still not over her epic bridal moments from last month. Now Stella McCartney is giving us more to indulge in.
In an interview with British Vogue, McCartney revealed that she is re-creating the Duchess of Sussex's now-iconic halter dress in extremely limited quantities in honor of hernew flagship store in London—specifically, she's making 23 versions in white and 23 in black. The re-creations, which are describedas "the mirror image" of Markle's dress, cost $4647 each, so we finally know how muchherfamous dress was worth. They are also made with the samesustainable viscose fabric as the duchess's, so every last detail is the same.
Of course, there's a catch: Potential buyers have to schedule a private appointment and have to be approved by McCartney herself. Bon chance! Scroll down to revisit the famous dress and see McCartney's original sketch.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
