Now the spotlight is on Princess Eugenie.
The Queen’s granddaughter married her long-term boyfriend, Jack Brooksbank, last Saturday, 13 October 2018, at St George’s Chapel in the grounds of Windsor Castle. Eugenie walked down the aisle in front of 800 guests and the ceremony was still broadcast to millions of viewers. And so, for her turn in front of the watching nation, the youngest daughter of the Duke and Duchess of York chose Peter Pilotto.
Eugenie worked closely with Pilotto and Christopher De Vos, the duo behind the 2007-founded label, on the design. The London-based brand carried out extensive archive research into previous dresses worn by members of the royal family and finally settled on a corseted silhouette with full pleated skirt. The neckline that folds around the shoulders to a low back and flowing train was a specific request from Eugenie who had surgery at the age of 12 to correct scoliosis.

For her nuptials, Princess Eugenie wore the Greville Emerald Kokoshnik Tiara.
The Greville emerald Kokoshnik tiara, lent to Eugenie by the Queen, but made originally by Boucheron for Mrs Greville in 1919, and diamond and emerald drop earrings, which were a wedding gift from the groom, provided an elegant mix of old and new jewellery for her. Charlotte Olympia heels, meanwhile, acted as another nod to the country’s fashion talent.
The bride’s bouquet, created by Patrice Van Helden Oakes, consists of Lily of the Valley, Stephanotis pips, hints of baby blue thistles, white spray roses and trailing ivy.

The gown also featured symbols that are personal to Eugenie and Brooksbank – a thistle to acknowledge the couple’s fondness for Balmoral, a shamrock as a nod to the bride’s roots, and a rose and ivy to represent the couple’s home.
The bridesmaids and pageboys wore Amaia Arrieta of Amaia Kids with the design incorporating the Mark Bradford artwork included in the Order of Service.
