Kate Middleton's Wedding Dress May Be Designed by, Sophie Cranston: What Sophie says about her line

Sophie Cranston, designer for Libelula

Designed by Sophie Cranston, Libelula is fast becoming the label to watch.  

Cranston studied fashion design and honed her skills in the backrooms in Saville Row and Bellville Sassoon.  She then won the prestigious Designer of the Year Award at Graduate Fashion Week in 1999, an accolade shared with such luminaries as John Galliano, Christopher Bailey and Alexander McQueen. She then went on to work for McQueen himself, and next  set up Temperley in 2000 with Alice Temperley. After 2 years she decided to follow her dreams and went to the South of Spain to learn Flamenco and Spanish and it was here in a small white washed village in Andalucia that Libelula (Dragonfly in Spanish) was born.
  As the label grew it made more sense to move the headquarters to the UK and it can now be found in many of the leading boutiques around the country, and also internationally.  Cranston's eclectic explosion of a studio is based in South London and she now juggles dresses with motherhood and family life.
Libelula is fast becoming known for its in-house designed, vibrant prints and beautifully cut, timeless and flattering shapes that together with Cranston’s  innate sense of color and use of luxurious fabrics create clothes to treasure for a lifetime. Once you have discovered and fallen in love with Libelula you will be smitten for ever.
Libelula now also offers wedding dresses and bridesmaids dresses in their signature shapes and fabrics.

It seems like every week there is a different fashion designer who is chosen to be the designer for Kate Middleton's wedding dress.  This week  it is Sophie Cranston. Kate did wear the Libelula black dress coat to a friend's wedding in January so we do know there is a connection to the designer. One writer at the Huffington Post confirmed that they knew for sure that the designer for Kate Middlton's dress is Libelula. In any event, we will know on April 29th if they are right.
