It’s hard to say which got more press the day after the royal wedding—Kate Middleton’s Alexander McQueen gown or Pippa Middleton’s bum. Both received rave reviews, earned front page treatment from newspapers, and are still written about almost daily. Kate’s dress might have spawned legions of knock-off lace gowns, but Pippa’s backside launched a Facebook fan club with almost 300,000 followers. Pippa may not be a royal, but she earns as much attention as her sister, the Duchess of Cambridge, and though she’s not even engaged to her boyfriend of a few months designers are already staking claim to her wedding dress. Alice Temperley, who designed the dress Pippa wore to Kate and Will’s reception, sat Middleton front row at her show last week and just told the Telegraph that she too has a thing for Pippa’s bottom. “I’d love to dress Pippa for her wedding when it happens,” Temperley said. “She’s so beautiful—she’s perfect and her bum is perfect—it would be such an honour.”
