Duchess of Cambridge in Burton dress

4th July 2011

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - The Duchess of Cambridge continued to impress during her tour of Canada today, wearing a frock by her wedding dress designer.

Newlyweds the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge began their tour of Canada and the US last week, and so far Catherine's fashion choices have wowed onlookers.

Catherine today delighted fans as she arrived at Prince Edward Island with husband Prince William in the latest stop on their 11-day tour. She looked radiant in a cream knit dress with a blue trim, which was designed by the creator of her wedding dress, Sarah Burton at Alexander McQueen.

The pair arrived for the official welcoming ceremony in a horse-drawn coach which was reminiscent of their wedding day just two months ago.

Prince Edward Island is the setting for a book said to be close to Catherine's heart, Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery.

The book was set in 1878 and the couple were greeted by fans who dressed up in period costume.

Prince William later impressed the crowd, and Catherine, with his military helicopter training and performed his first water landing in front of crowds on his inaugural overseas trip with his new bride.

The Prince is a Royal Air Force rescue helicopter pilot and had asked to perform the emergency landing procedure as part of his visit to Canada. (C) Cover Media
