After so much speculation, it looks like the Creative Director for Alexander McQueen was given the honor of designing the dress for the Royal Wedding!

With just hours until Kate Middleton shows off the wedding dress the whole world is waiting to see, it looks like the big secret is out! British news outlets are reporting that Sarah Burton, Creative Director for Alexander McQueen, was spotted checking into Kate’s hotel, The Goring!

Burton was an early favorite, but when recent reports claimed Kate was wearing up-and-coming designer Sophie Cranston, it seemed like a distant possibility. Personally, I think it’s the perfect fit — Kate is modern and chic, and I’m sure Burton’s creation will look gorgeous on the bride-to-be. We’re not the only ones who were pulling for Burton — even Nina Garcia wanted to see Kate in one of the designer’s dresses!

If Sarah Burton is definitely the designer, it may also explain why Dior has yet to reveal John Galliano‘s successor — especially since Burton’s name keeps coming up regarding Galliano’s replacement.

Do you think Kate made the right choice?
