Summary The see-through dress worn by Kate Middleton at a university fashion show at which she caught the eye of an admiring Prince William goes on sale next month.

In 2002, Prince William paid for front row seats at the charity show at Scotlands St Andrews University. Middleton won the prince’s heart when she strutted down the aisle in little more than her underwear as she modeled the knitted lace dress.At that moment, Williams interest in Middleton was stirred and they began dating soon after. If it is true that my design helped changed the princes interest in Kate from platonic to romantic as has been reported, then I am pleased to have played a part, said the dress designer Charlotte Todd.The dress, which is expected to sell for up to 10,000 pounds, was initially designed to be a skirt. Middleton was selected to wear it and it was decided that it should be worn as a dress instead.
