A couple of weeks ago one of the investors in Lightinabox told me that the site was able to copy fashion within a few hours, and yesterday’s Royal Wedding of Kate and William proved him right. Kate’s dress was available online within 2 hours after she first showed it to the world. If you’re interested in getting your hands on one you can order one here for just USD 399 (they ship worldwide). Somehow I have the feeling that the original dress was a bit more expensive!

I heard that the replica of this dress is being made and it will take at least 6-8 weeks before anything close to it is made.
unique wedding dresses is really very difficult. The design with the body custom make generally spent least for one month.
