Rumors of which designer will make the wedding gown abound. Vanity Fair reported that last week, people thought the designer would be Erdem, a British brand beloved by Kate Middleton, or Ralph & Russo, the brand responsible for designing Markle’s engagement outfit. This week, bets are on Alexander McQueen.
These rumors stem from Betfair, a betting website. Yes, the British like to bet on rumors, especially ones that relate to the royal family. They’re weird.
We previously had Ralph and Russo as the 2/1 [favorites] and there’s also been a lot of talk of Erdem as a big front-runner. However, we’ve now suspended this market after seeing some interesting betting on Alexander McQueen this morning who went from 16/1 to 8/1 in a very short space of time.
