Visitors to London this summer will have the chance to see the Duchess of Cambridge's wedding dress up close, as it is set to go on display at Buckingham Palace.

Those who admired the dress from afar when the royal wedding was televised at the end of April will be able to see the outfit in even more detail, along with diamond earrings, tiara and veil, when they take a tour of the Queen's primary residence.

Imagine what a great addition a picture of the dress would make to a photobook documenting your trip to the capital.

Even if you were able only to pick up a postcard of the beautiful garment, it would certainly add a touch of class to the tome, and would be a nice change alongside more traditional pictures of London Bridge, the exterior of Buckingham Palace and Nelson's Column.

Officials hope the dress, which was designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, will draw record numbers of visitors to the Palace.
