UK: Princess Eugenie Ascot: Eugenie channels wedding vibe – could THIS be her dress designer? | Royal | News

Ninth in line to the British Throne, Princess Eugenie will marry her fiancé Jack Brooksbank on October 12.

The 28-year-old channeled her inner bride ahead of her big day as she wore a tie-waist dress by Osman at the Royal Ascot on Tuesday.

The dress featured a midi hemline, a kimono-inspired silhouette and its pale metallic-silver fabric looked almost a glowing white in the summer sunshine.

Known for her quirky hat choices, Eugenie also wore a wide-brim hat by Emily London to match her dress and paired her frock with studded pumps and a tan coloured handbag.

Her pink sapphire and diamond engagement ring also complimented her outfit. 

With the all-white ensemble, many have suggested her Royal Ascot dress could be a hint of what’s to come with her choice of wedding dress.

The top five wedding dress designers have been predicted by Ladbrokes – although Osman, who designed her Ascot dress, is not in the running.

Canadian and Turkish fashion designer Erdem comes in at 4/1, while British boutique designer Suzannah is at 5/1.

The odds for royal favourite Jenny Packham are 6/1 and Dominican-American fashion designe Oscar de la Renta is 6/1.

Preen, which specialises in designing “deconstructed London cool” comes in at 8/1.

British luxury wedding dress designer Caroline Arthur suggested Eugenie may push the boundaries of royal protocol with a high-low hem hem or off-the-shoulder straps with cape to cover her shoulders, in line with the current high fashion tends.

Ms Arthur told Express.co.uk: “As a thoroughly modern princess, Eugenie has embraced high fashion, and has also shared her own personal journey publicly, with regards to her scoliosis.

“It has implications for the fit of a dress which will most likely influence the choice of style.

“Eugenie has a fabulous hourglass figure, elegant posture despite her condition, and graceful sloping shoulders. She clearly loves floral fabrics, unusual patterns and necklines, and seems to favour a figure-hugging silhouette.”

Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, reportedly chose Givenchy’s Clare Waight Keller as early as January, four months before her wedding

And with Eugenie’s nuptials now just five months away, we can likely expected her frock to be on the forefront of her mind.

Everything we know about Princess Eugenie’s royal wedding

Not many details are known about Princess Eugenie’s big day, including her bridal look.

However, it is known she will walk down the aisle at St George’s Chapel, in the grounds of Windsor Castle – which is the same location as Meghan Markle and Prince Harry got married. 

Eugenie met 31-year-old Jack, who was the manager of Mayfair hotspot Maliki, through mutual friends during a ski-trip to Verbier seven years ago.

The couple got engaged in Nicaragua in January. 

Their wedding could echo the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who wed on May 19. 

James Brookes, of Royal Central, told Express Online Eugenie and Jack’s wedding will most likely be broadcast too.

He said: “Although Eugenie and Jack aren’t as high in the line of succession as Harry and Meghan, they’re young and because of the likelihood of those famous faces, broadcasters would be missing a trick by not covering it.”

Prince George and Princess Charlotte are likely to become a page boy and bridesmaid once more. 

Prince Louis may make an appearance as he will be just under six-months-old when the next Royal Wedding takes place.

Prince William and Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge’s third child will be christened at The Royal Chapel, St James’s Palace, London, on Monday, July 9.

Prince Louis did not attend Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding.
