Kate Middletons Reiss Dress!
You can finally get your hands on Kate's white engagement dress...in America that is!
The Nannette, by Reiss, sold out last year after the bride-to-be caused hysteria when she was pictured wearing it in formal portraits by Mario Testino.
The High Street chain has decided to re-release the £159 dress this week but only in the U.S. Reiss
It made a brief re-appearance last month in the UK, only to be out of stock again almost immediately.
Lyndon Mackenzie, general manager of the company's Soho store in New York City, said the dress is flying off the racks and will probably be sold out by week's end.
Prince William's fiancee has proved a hit with style watchers and the public alike.
The royal-blue dress she wore when her engagement was announced to the media also sold out within days.
The outfit by Brazil-born designer Daniella Issa Helayel, who set up her Issa label in London, also inspired a number of copy-cat gowns sold by high street retailers.
Middleton's style is so closely watched that she has even dethroned eccentric-dresser Lady Gaga as the top fashion buzzword for the upcoming season. Other top 10 words include 'sheer', 'shirt dresses' and 'sustainable style'.
The words were chosen from the global fashion media and nominated by important individuals from the industry.
While Middleton's engagement desses continues to create a lot of buzz, it is the choice for the big day that still has still has the fashion industry guessing.
Mackenzie believes that dress is 'going to be something very timeless and classic. Very sophisticated.'
The Nannette dress has 3/4 sleeves, an asymmetric draped neck line, paneled waist band and side pockets and an overlay on the front skirt.
It features a cascading frill alongside an exposed zip that fastens the dress at the front.
The couple will marry on April 29 at Westminster Abbey.

Golden Globes Red Carpet Dresses
I absolutely love this time of year! Award Season is well and truly upon us, and last night the stars shined at the Golden Globes.
Green was a popular colour this year and Angelina Jolie looked fabulously old-Hollywood in a Swarovski crystal embellished, emerald green Atelier Versace gown. I love the shape and the high neck and long sleeves leave something to the imagination.
Nominated for best TV actress in a drama for her role as Peggy in "Mad Men" Elisabeth Moss arrived in a hunter-green Donna Karan bodice gown
Also on Team Green Catherine Zeta-Jones poses in a textured Monique Lhuillier strapless gown paired with diamond drop earrings
Finally Mila Kunis wore a ladylike Vera Wang one-shouldered gown
Lea Michele in Oscar de la Renta gown,
Dianna Agron, a member of the "Glee" cast, looked delicate and refined in a J. Mendel beige silk chiffon hand-pleated strapless gown and Cathy Waterman jewelry with gold Salvatore Ferragamo clutch.
The bombshell typically turns up the heat on the red carpet but we felt cold after spotting Megan Fox in this asymmetrical Swarovski-crystal-adorned Armani Privé number matched with crystal-heeled Brian Atwood pumps and Lorraine Schwartz jewels.
Country star Carrie Underwood opted for a Badgley Mischka strapless gown and Swarovski metallic clutch.
"Mad Men" star Christina Hendricks always looks red hot, but we were distracted by the oversized ruffles of her Romona Kaveza dress.
I'm not normally a fan but I love Christina Aguileras Zuhair Murad beaded gown
