The Second Wedding Dress Kate Middleton Wore That You Never Saw

by Amy Lee

Who could forget the moment Kate Middleton stepped out in her Alexander McQueen wedding dress in 2011? The V-shaped lace neckline, corseted satin bodice and beautiful train delivered one of the most iconic princess moments of all time. While we can’t fathom ever wanting to take off the gorgeous gown, Kate changed into a second wedding dress (as you do) for her reception, and images of it have finally resurfaced. Also designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, number two is just as breathtaking as the first via a sweetheart design, structured bodice, diamante-embellished waist and circle skirt. The best part? She topped it off with a fuzzy shrug cardi. So much has happened since then—like being pregnant with her third child—so it’s fun to see this throwback to when the brunette beauty just got hitched.
