Royal bride Princess Eugenie didnt just have one wedding dress. Like Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton before her, she had a different dress for the evening reception.

Eugenies dress was designed by Zac Posen and was inspired by the blush of an English rose.

The silk that the dress is made from is apparently made at a British silk mill, and the dress features pleating reminiscent of famous couturier Madame de Gres.

Zac Posen took inspiration for the dress from the White Rose of York. The pin-tucked dress has the White Rose of York is subtlety embroidered on both the shoulder and back.

Eugenies dress blew lots of us commoners away, with people commenting on the photo that it was even more dress, and that shes the best dressed royal bride of recent years.
