I just received this email from Harper's Bazaar executive fashion and beauty editor Avril Graham you can read the magazine's coverage here:

"Catherine Middleton made an astute fashion choice in selecting the house of Alexander McQueen for the dress. The creme de la creme of fashion design and the insiders' choice of fashionistas worldwide. The House of McQueen is British fashion design at its best.

The dress itself was a glorious mix of modernity with a hint of historical reference and a wonderful silhouette to compllment the architectural beauty of the Abbey.

The Tiara, loaned by the Queen was owned originally by the Queen mother, a gift from her husband King George VI. I thought it was a beautiful gesture to past generations.

The silhouette was majestic without appearing overblown, beautifully constructed with just the right mix of femininity. A Royal Wedding with Hollywood style perfection."
