And while we don't yet know which designer Markle has selected for her big day, an affordable version of Kate Middleton's classic wedding gown is finally available at H&M. Seriously.
Her flawless Alexander McQueen wedding gown has been unforgettable since she married Prince William on April 29, 2011. And while H&M's much cheaper version of the dress doesn't have the same lengthy train that Pippa Middleton helped carry for her sister, it's still a gorgeous option for anyone's nuptials:
At $299, H&M's long lace dress is an elegant replica of Middleton's own wedding gown, at a much more affordable price. The website describes the gown as having a "lace bodice and skirt in an airy weave," and it appears to have an almost identical neckline to the Duchess' gown:

According to H&M's website, the dress also has a "scalloped V-neck with support panels at the top, an opening with a covered button at the back of the neck and a concealed zip at the back. Long sleeves with scalloped trims, a seam at the waist with a grosgrain band, and a gently flared skirt."
If you want to feel like a literal princess on your wedding day, then H&M's version of the Duchess of Cambridge's gown is essential. H&M's new bridal collection caters to every budget, and the fact that it draws inspiration from a royal wedding is totally apt right now.
It's also a good option if you're looking for something to wear on May 19...
