Kate picks Oldfield for wedding dress

LONDON - Kate Middleton is set to marry Prince William next year and she has reportedly chosen British designer Bruce Oldfield to create her wedding gown.
There had been speculation that the 28-year-old future queen, who will tie the knot April 29, would choose her favourite label Issa to design the gown. But designer Ben de Lisi says Bruce has been handed the task.
“There are lots of rumours but I’ve heard it is Bruce Oldfield, femalefirst.co.uk quoted Ben as saying. “I’m absolutely certain I won’t get chosen. I’m sure I’m not in the running.”
American-born Ben, whose gowns have been worn by Kate Winslet, Helena Bonham Carter and Angelica Huston, feels sorry for Kate because the whole world will be waiting to judge her wedding outfit.
“Kate has to do what’s right for Kate. It’s never going to be easy for her because the whole world is looking at her, said Ben.
