The Actual Cost of the Royals' Most Famous Wedding Gowns

At her wedding to Prince Andrew, Sarah followed in the footsteps of her new mother-in-law the queen by choosing cream duchesse satin for her dress, using silk worms from the same farm in Dorset. Designer Lindka Cierach created a fairy tale gown with a fitted bodice, three-quarter length sleeves with shoulder pads and bows at the shoulders, and a 17-foot train. Sarah requested that waves and anchors be embroidered into her train, to represent her husband's naval career, as well as their intertwined initials, and bees from her family's crest.
