The dress - everything you need to know

MEGHAN'S Givenchy Haute Couture dress was designed by its new Artistic director Clare Waight Keller, who has been at its helm since May 2017.
The dress focuses on the open bateau neckline that slightly shows the shoulders, with a figure fitting sculpted waistline.
It's made of six seams, with a flowing train and an underskirt made of triple silk organza. It also has three-quarter length sleeves.
Givenchy also created the stunning five metre long veil, which is decorated with hand-embroidered flowers representing all 53 countries of the Commonwealth - a design detail requested by Meghan.
It is made from silk tulle with the floral decorations made out of silk threads and organza.
The workers who made the veil spent hundreds of hours making the intricate design - and had to wash their hands every THIRTY minutes to keep the materials pristine.
The front of the veil shows crops of wheat blending into the flora, to symbolise love and charity.
Meghan's heels are made of aptly named duchess satin and have a pointed toe.

And for the mini-mes - Givenchy also designed the six adorable bridesmaids dresses.
Each dress is high waisted with short puffed sleeves and a silk ribbon detail at the back, tied into a bow.
The dresses were made of a prestigious fabric called ivory silk radzimir.
Handily - they came complete with pockets, and pleated skirts.
