英国全民打赌：谁为准王妃凯特做嫁衣

Since Prince William announced his engagement to Kate Middleton, the subject of her wedding dress has been a hot topic. Will it be Brazilian-born Issa designer Daniella Helayel? Or perhaps classic bridal label Phillipa Lepley?

自从威廉王子宣布他与凯特米德尔顿(Kate Middleton)订婚后，有关凯特婚纱的话题就沸沸扬扬。设计师会是巴西后裔Daniella Helayel，还是经典婚纱品牌Phillipa Lepley？

Now bookmakers have received the strongest indication yet that a designer for the gown has been chosen。

目前，有明确迹象显示礼服的设计师已经确定了。

Paddy Power has received so many wagers on Bruce Oldfield to design the Royal wedding dress, it has suspended betting。

博彩公司Paddy Power已经收到很多对Bruce Oldfield设计皇家礼服的下注，目前该公司已经停止了投注。

A spokesman from the bookmaker told Vogue.com this morning that it was no point taking bets when all the interest was in one person, and hinted that the surge in interest could be the result of a leak。

该公司发言人今天上午透露，在所有下注都看好一个人的时候，继续接受投注就没有意义了。他同事暗示说这可能是因为消息泄露造成的。

'We suspended betting on November 26,' he said. 'We were receiving one-way traffic for Bruce Oldfield and there is no point in taking bets when all the interest is in one person。

“我们在11月26日早上停止了投注”他说，“我们接受的全是对Bruce Oldfield的下注，这样的话继续接受投注就没有意义了” （实习编辑：顾萍）
