Britain's Pippa Middleton has joked her infamous bridesmaids dress "fitted a little too well".
Duchess Catherine's younger sister became a worldwide sensation in April 2011 when her pert rear in her cream Alexander McQueen bridemaids dress stole the show at Kate and Prince William's wedding in London's Westminster Abbey.
Pippa has finally opened up about the figure-hugging gown, joking in a speech at the Women in Advertising and Communications dinner: "As I have found out, recognition has its upside, its downside and - you may say - its backside."
The brunette addressed a crowd of 400 at the event at Central London's Savoy Hotel, where tickets cost a whopping £132, admitting she didn't sleep for two nights before the landmark televised wedding because she was so nervous.
She said she was "glad [the dress] fitted" at the time, adding, "In retrospect it fitted a little too well".
A guest told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "It was the first time she's made a speech of this kind but you wouldn't have known it, she was so relaxed. It was unbelievable how open she was - I don't think anyone was expecting that.
"She talked about the royal wedding and her career since. She came across as really grateful for the opportunities but also talked about the pitfalls of her position."
The 30-year-old beauty also confessed she was hurt by allegations she was cashing in on her sister's connections by writing her party-planning book, 'Celebrate'.

"It's a horror film that emphasizes atmosphere and suspense in the tradition of classics like 'Psycho' or 'The Others.'"
'The Conjuring' was well received by film critics and proved a box-office success grossing over $318 million worldwide.
New Line are currently working on 'Annabelle', which is a spin-off based on the possessed doll which was introduced in 'The Conjuring'.

The Scottish rockers hope to follow in the footsteps of Adele, who won an Oscar for Best Original Song for 'Skyfall' in 2013, by penning a track for the next movie.
Frontman Simon Neil told the Daily Star newspaper: "Biffy for Bond, yes - I will follow you to the ends of the earth, sir. I'd love that.
"I think we've got a couple of songs in our back catalogue that could have suited but that is most songwriters' dream, isn't it, to write for Bond?

He added: "It's such a dramatic theme that I think it would really suit us."

Oasis are re-releasing their debut album 'Definitely Maybe' with previously unheard tracks to celebrate the LP's 20th anniversary.
The band - who split in August 2009 after brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher had a huge backstage bust-up in Paris, France - sent the internet into meltdown yesterday (25.02.14), after teasing an announcement at 9am this morning (26.02.14), prompting speculation of a reunion.
But instead they revealed plans to bring out a new version of their acclaimed debut record - which will be available from May 19. The anticipation of a possible reunion saw fans crash their official website oasisinet.com.
The re-issue is the first in the 'Chasing The Sun' series from Big Brother Recordings - the brothers' own record label - with 'What's the Story (Morning Glory)?' and 'Be Here Now' also set to be re-released.
Original Oasis guitarist Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs - who quit the group in 1999 - told NME magazine: "There were no discussions at all about any anniversary shows. These reissues are the best way to celebrate, because all three albums have great extras."
The re-issue will be available in a number of formats and packages, including a three-disc deluxe edition, featuring unheard acoustic versions recorded in Paris of 'Live Forever' and 'Shakermaker', along with an early demo of 'Half The World Away', recorded by Noel in a hotel room in Tokyo, Japan, and a demo of rare song 'Strange Thing'.
The band's 1994 standalone single 'Whatever' will be included as well as versions of all the B-sides from the album's four singles - 'Supersonic', 'Shakermaker', 'Live Forever' and 'Cigarettes & Alcohol'.
'Definitely Maybe', which was produced by Owen Morris, sold 86,000 copies in its first week of sales in August 1994 and was the fastest-selling debut album in UK chart history until Arctic Monkeys' 'Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not' beat the record in 2005.
The original line-up of Oasis that recorded the album was made up of singer Liam, guitarist and songwriter Noel, rhythm guitarist Bonehead, bassist Paul 'Guigsy' McGuigan and drummer Tony McCarroll.

Chloe Sims wants to find love on 'The Only Way Is Essex' this year.
The single mother - who has eight-year-old daughter Madison with a mystery ex-boyfriend - is hopeful she could meet Mr. Right on the ITV2 reality show's 11th series, although she is nervous about the idea of having a relationship play out on camera.
She told the Daily Star newspaper: "There's no man on the scene at the moment but I'm working on it! I don't know whether there will be any love action in this series.
"But I am single and I would love to be in a new relationship, because they're the best ones. So we'll just have to see what happens. I really don't know at the moment.
"It would be hard to have a relationship on the show and I think that scares people a bit. Once a love affair goes on 'TOWIE', it seems it always ends in tears. But for me, I've never had a boyfriend on the show so I might give it a go."
The busty brunette also revealed she was missing her cousin Joey Essex, who quit the show last year to pursue other TV projects, and insists the door is always open for him to return.
Chloe sighed: "It's weird not having him there. Tom Pearce talks like him sometimes so it's like I keep hearing him when he's not there.
"But he's gone on to do other things so I'm happy for him. I think the door will always be open for him - there wouldn't be a problem if he wanted to come back.
"But a change for him is good. He's still young and he can do lots of other things."

She said: "I love being a family. I love going from two people to three people, and it has deepened the bond between me and my husband. We love being together, the three of us. Our little unit."
Kirk also admitted he was "having a lot of fun" raising a child as he gushed: "He's laughing a lot. I feel like making your son laugh is the greatest feeling in the world."

Katherine Jenkins is dating an American professor.
The 33-year-old singer - who split from her former fiance, TV presenter Gethin Jones, in December 2011 - has been spending time with New York university professor Andrew Levitas since she moved to Los Angeles at the beginning of the year and is hoping he's 'the one'.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "She thinks Andrew is lovely, she hopes this one works out.
"They are literally joined at the hip at the moment and spending all of their time together.
"Katherine has been careful not to flaunt him around as she is used to her high profile relationships going wrong but she reckons this relationship could be the one to last."
Katherine recently gushed about him online after he surprised her with an oil painting.
The blonde beauty wrote on Twitter: "A simple bunch of daffodils would have done! Thank you @AndrewLevitas It's beyond beautiful. (sic)"

Reese Witherspoon is embarrassed by her mother's Twitter account.
The 37-year-old actress joined the social networking site last year and has admitted that her mother's presence on social media and her strange questions embarrass her.
She said: "My mum texts me bizarre questions like, 'What should I tweet? Should I get new head shots? Should I take acting classes?' "
The 'Mud' star - who has children Ava, 14, and Deacon, 11, with her ex-husband Ryan Phillippe and 17-month-old son Tennessee with her current spouse Jim Toth - claims she finds her mum's questions so bizarre because she's a medical professional and not an actress.
Speaking to 'Tonight' host Jimmy Fallon about her mother Betty Reese, she added: ".And I'm like, 'Mom you're a pediatric nurse.' It's weird."
Reese admitted recently that her parents banned her from moving to Hollywood in the early years of her career because they wanted her to continue with her education.
She said: "They told me I had to stay in school. I was allowed to work in the summers but I couldn't work in the school year. They said, 'You're not moving to California, that's where crazy people live.'"

Bill Murray has paid tribute to Harold Ramis.
The 'Monuments Men' actor has recalled the numerous projects he worked on with the late actor - who passed away aged 69 in the early hours of Monday (24.02.14) morning after suffering autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis for a number of years - and says he "earned his keep".
He said in a statement to TIME: "Harold Ramis and I together did the 'National Lampoon Show' off Broadway, 'Meatballs', 'Stripes', 'Caddyshack', 'Ghostbusters' and 'Groundhog Day'.
"He earned his keep on this planet. God bless him."
In 2009, Harold admitted he and Bill, 63, hadn't spoken since working on 'Groundhog Day' in 1993, but was hopeful they could enjoy a "great reunion" one day in the future.
He said: "I've had many dreams about him, that we're friends again. There was a great reunion feeling in those dreams. Bill was a strong man.
"I could help him be the best Bill Murray he could be, and I think he appreciated that then. And I don't know where that went, but it's there on film."
Harold is survived by his wife, Erica Mann Ramis, their two sons, Julian and Daniel as well as his daughter, Violet Ramis, with former spouse Anne Plotkin.

Marc Webb has been confirmed to direct 'The Amazing Spider-Man 3'.
The filmmaker will return to helm Andrew Garfield in the third instalment of the superhero franchise, "securing his spot in helming all three films in the trilogy" according to a new report about Sony Pictures by Variety.
The movie is due for release in May 2016 in the UK and June 2016 in the US.
The studio also confirmed that a new 'Spider-Man' film would be released every year in future, thanks to plans to make spin-off movies centred around villains The Sinister Six and Venom.
Amy Pascal, Sony's co-chairman, said: "We are expanding the 'Spider-Man' universe into The Sinister Six and Venom, so that we have 'Spider-Man' movies every year."
Alex Kurtzman is set to direct 'Venom' and is currently writing a script with his longtime collaborator Roberto Orci and Ed Solomon, while Drew Goddard will write 'The Sinister Six' and potentially direct the feature. Neither film has yet been given a release date.
Orci recently said: "I think [the audience is] ready to have things shaken up. I think we've all seen everything. You've seen everything ...They can see it all coming. So we have to shake it up. You can't just keep telling the same stories every day."

Robin Thicke has cancelled a third tour date in the wake of his split from Paula Patton.
The 'Blurred Lines' singer has now axed three consecutive concerts on his North American tour after announcing on Monday (24.02.14) that he had parted ways from his wife of almost nine years.
This news comes as Robin was a no-show at Harrah's Cherokee Casino Resort in North Carolina last night (25.02.14).
The venue issued a statement reading: "Due to unforeseen circumstances, Robin Thicke will postpone his performance at Harrah's Cherokee originally scheduled for Tuesday, February 25. This concert will be rescheduled and the new date announced as soon as possible. We apologise for any inconvenience."
He previously scrapped gigs on Friday in Atlanta and Saturday in Orlando, blaming vocal issues, but instead was seen jetting to Vancouver, where actress Paula is currently filming, in a bid to save his marriage.
The 36-year-old star said last week: "I never want to let down my fans but I have unfortunately lost my voice and cannot perform tomorrow night."
Robin is expected to continue his tour this Thursday at the GMU Patriot Centre in Washington, DC.
The couple - who have three-year-old son Julian together - announced they had "mutually decided to separate at this time", but will remain "best friends".
