Kate Moss is to have a black and white wedding gown for her marriage to Babyshambles frontman Pete Doherty.

The dress will be made by designer Alexander McQueen, a personal friend of the British supermodel.

According to the New of the World, the designer got straight to work on the ¡ê20,000 outfit that will be "traditional with a modern unique twist", which apparently includes black lace.

A friend told the paper, "He [McQueen] was an obvious choice...but he hadn't taken it for granted and was overjoyed to be asked."

They added, "It's every designer's dream to be responsible for that dress."
