 But Pippa Middleton’s dress, designed by the creative director of Alexander McQueen, Sarah Burton, caught many viewers’ eyes. The form-fitting white dress had a scooped neckline, and short sleeves and pearl buttons lined the back. Chloe Savage, a seamstress who worked on Kate’s dress, told Insider’s Anneta Konstantinides that Pippa’s gown shouldn’t have been so form-fitting.

“The bridesmaid should really not be stealing the show,” Savage said of Pippa’s gown. “It was a beautiful dress, absolutely stunning. But as a dress designer, the aim is to make the bride the star of the show.

” “I’ll forever regret this look. One of my worst looks,” she told Elle UK in 2020.  The actress revealed she had two other dresses in mind for the wedding, but neither fit.

 “I had a fashion emergency. Both of my really classy dresses that I picked out did not fit me because they’d arrived on the day of the wedding, and I hadn’t had a chance to try them on,” she said. “It was either the thigh-high boots or these nice heels, but I felt like, well if I just wear the heels, then all of my leg is showing — if I cover up a little bit, then, urgh, it was a disaster,” Turner added.

“Worst fashion choice!”Turner attended the wedding in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, with her other costar, Maisie Williams. She also coordinated her outfit with Turner’s by wearing a black jumpsuit, red heels, and a Kate Spade clutch. “Maisie is a great wedding date, the best wedding date next to Joe — I have to say that,” Turner joked, referring to her husband, Joe Jonas.
