Bridesmaids’ Dress Drama at Prince Harry and Meghan’s Wedding Revealed by Tailor
The tailor who was responsible for the bridesmaids' dresses drama at Prince Harry and Meghan's wedding has broken his silence after four years.
A.J.
Murpuri, a luxury suit and dressmaker, revealed that he and his team had to work around the clock for four days before the 2018 nuptials because none of the six bridesmaids' dresses made by French fashion house Givenchy fitted.
Murpuri said that he saw nothing of what is said to have gone on but he was not surprised that it prompted tears from Markle and Catherine.
“If anything happened in the background, it didn't happen in front of me,” the tailor said.
Weddings are stressful at the best of times, and especially one at this high level.

You've got to respect that.
They were faced with a problem like anyone gets at a wedding, with last-minute hitches.
Murpuri understands why anyone would be upset if the dresses didn't fit.
“It's nerve-wracking.
I feel for them because you wouldn't want the children to go out on a big stage in an ill-fitting dress.
And that's what was going to happen.
All six bridesmaids' dresses had to be fixed and we did it.
So Catherine has been proven correct yet again.
They did need to be completely redone.”
However, some people believe that there is more to this story than meets the eye.
One theory is that Meghan wanted her own style and secretly changed the measurements to get a less fitted look without having to consult anyone or deal with Givenchy's opinion.
When the dresses came back too big, she didn't tell Givenchy because she still wanted to have sole control over the process.
Another theory is that Meghan sabotaged the process and destroyed the dresses intentionally.
Royal fans were always sceptical that the whole thing was on purpose, with one saying, “Something is really off here.
I think the whole thing was on purpose.
So Charlotte would end up with an ill-fitting dress.
Or even better, didn't want to be a bridesmaid because she didn't like a dress.
She laid out the trap, and Catherine fell into it.
Mission accomplished.”
Despite the theories, Murpuri believes that it was just a last-minute hitch that all weddings face.
He said, “I can understand why anyone would be upset if the dresses didn't fit.
It's nerve-wracking.
I feel for them because you wouldn't want the children to go out on a big stage in an ill-fitting dress.”
Murpuri also thinks that Givenchy should sue because they were embarrassed by the incident.
“To be made in France, not England, measurements sent and no doubt through Meghan, a house like Givenchy would send seamstresses to take measurements for such an event.
Did she piss Givenchy off, and they didn't end up doing the final tailoring?
There's more to this story here because there's no way a brand would let someone else do their tailoring for something so high-profile.”
Murpuri's revelation has sparked interest in the real story behind the bridesmaids' dresses drama.
People are curious to know whether Meghan was responsible for the mishap or whether it was just a last-minute hitch.
The tailor's account has shed light on the incident, but there are still many unanswered questions.
