Getty ImagesAfter announcing the royal wedding's bridal party last week, the Palace confirmed that Irish hat designer Philip Treacy will design headpieces for Kate's sister Pippa, who is the maid of honor, as well as the other bridesmaids.
Several news sources report that the bride's future mother-in-law, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, suggested Treacy. Camilla wore two of his designs at her wedding ceremony and service to Prince Charles in 2005.
And members of the British royal family aren't the only fans of Philip Treacy's designs. Lady Gaga and Sarah Jessica Parker have been photographer in his hats, too. View a gallery below of the famous faces who have worn Philip's designs:

ALCON,
ReplyStarted (just started) a new free website for people to post their spare room(s), house during an event that is occuring in their area. Since there are no hotels room left near the Royal Wedding (they were at a 300% mark-up) this is a great oppurtunity for locals to make a little cash and for travelers to have/ find other options for places to stay as they enjoy the event! (Site is new, lets see where it goes!)
