Duke and Duchess of Cambridge

Madame Tussauds in Washington D.C will unveil waxworks of Britain's Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on Thursday (12.09.13).

Patrick Davies, the British Deputy Ambassador of the United States, will reveal the two figures, which took four months to create, of Prince William and Duchess Catherine - who was formerly known as Kate Middleton before she married William in 2011 - to the public later this week.

Catherine will be seen dressed in a copy of the stunning pale lilac Alexander McQueen frock that she wore to an event in Los Angeles in 2011 and will be wearing a recreated version of her sapphire and diamond engagement ring, while William will be wearing a navy suit.

Waxworks of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have proven a big hit with the public in London, New York and Amsterdam after they were unveiled in 2012, nearly a year after the couple tied the knot at London's Westminster Abbey.

The London installment at Madame Tussauds sees the couple in the clothes they wore on the day they announced their engagement in 2010, with Catherine in a navy blue Issa dress and William in a suit.

The New York version of Catherine dons the gown she previously wore at the BAFTA's Brits to Watch gala designed by Alexander McQueen, while in Amsterdam she can be seen in an Alice Temperley dress worn at the London premiere of 'War Horse'.
