Kate Middleton and Prince William may not say "I do" until April 29, 2011, but we're hungrily taking in every royal wedding detail until the big day. There has been much speculation and anticipation about which designer Middleton will choose to create her bridal gown, and despite exhibiting impeccable style thus far, there's no denying the pressure is on.

Fashion trade paper Women's Wear Daily asked 29 designers and brands to sketch their concept of The Dress. Only one of the designers is actually British, so we're guessing Middleton will pick "none of the above," but we love seeing what the likes of Vera Wang, Karl Lagerfeld, and J.Crew have conjured up just the same. A submission from Bruce Oldfield, the alleged front-running wedding dress designer, is noticeably absent from the group, which makes us suspect he may be spending his time constructing the real thing!

Check out a dozen of the best dress designs here, weigh in on your favorites in the comments, and click over to WWD for the rest.

Washing Machine Accident

An Oregon family is devastated after a tragic accident took the life of their toddler. Tiffany Hebb was doing laundry, while her 21-month-old Ollie kept her company. When she left the room briefly, he crawled into the washing machine and drowned. A frantic Hebb found her son minutes later trapped in the water-filled basin and tried desperately to resuscitate him. After suffering severe brain damage, he died the following day in the hospital. "It was the worst day of my life," the grieving mother told a local Fox affiliate through tears. Now Tiffany and her husband Chris are on a mission to educate parents about the dangers of the seemingly innocuous household appliance. "I want to make mothers and fathers aware that it's a possibility," she said.
