Burton wants to create maternity wear for Middleton

London, Dec 15 (IANS) Fashion designer Sarah Burton wants to create maternity wear for the Duchess of Cambridge, whose wedding gown she had designed.

The acclaimed designer, who created the wedding dress for Middleton’s nuptials to Prince William in April 2011, hopes to be asked to create a new wardrobe for the royal, following the recent announcement she is expecting her first child, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Asked if she would be making any maternity clothes for the royal, Burton, who is due to give birth to twins in February, laughed and said: “I hope I will be.”

Burton admits being asked to work on the wedding gown for Middleton, was a big surprise.

“It came completely out of the blue, it was very exciting and I felt very privileged,” she said, adding that it is a “huge highlight” of her career.
