With her wedding just days away, rumours are swirling about the type of dress Pippa Middleton will opt for.
And after attending a final dress fitting last week, it appears that the 33-year-old's wedding dress was safely hand delivered to her Chelsea home on Tuesday morning.
Women were seen arriving carrying a white dress bag into the £17m home Pippa shares with her hedge fund manager fiance.
The bag, which was zipped up to conceal the contents from any prying eyes, appeared to be rather slim-fitting and simple in style and free from fussy layers and tulle.

The ladies carried several other dress bags, which could well be the bridesmaids' dresses.
And it seems that Pippa is turning to her sister Kate for beauty advice, after the Duchess of Cambridge's trusted hairdresser was also seen arriving with a suitcase.
Amanda Cook Tucker often styles Kate's hair at home and has been cutting William and Harry's hair for years - since they were children, in fact.
Amanda Cook Tucker, who has been Kate's hairdresser since the couple visited the Far East on a Diamond Jubilee Visit in September 2012, was on hand to style Kate's hair before she left the Lindo Wing after giving birth to Prince George in 2013.
Wedding dress fitters were also seen visiting Pippa's house a few weeks ago. She's expected to float down the aisle this weekend in a dress by high society designer Giles Deacon.

Rumours she had chosen him to make her wedding dress started to swirl when he was seen visiting Pippa and Carole at home after her engagement was announced.
And it seems the author and former party planner is determined for her guests to be equally stylish for the big day.
It's been reported that she has instructed members of the congregation to bring a second outfit for the evening reception.
According to Daily Mail diarist Richard Eden, the Duchess of Cambridge's younger sister, 33, wants her guests to have a change of clothes for the second leg of her big day on May 30.
When the Duchess of Cambridge tied the knot with Prince William in April 2011, she changed into a second wedding gown for the evening celebrations at Buckingham Palace - so Pippa may well be planning on a change of outfit herself.
Meanwhile, he may be preparing for the biggest society wedding of the year but it was business as usual for James Matthews as he took his dogs on a walk on Tuesday.

On Monday, the first pictures of James and Pippa's impressive wedding venue were pictured - a £100,000 (US$130,000) glass conservatory-style structure that she is having installed in the garden of her family home for Saturday's celebrations.
Not content with a traditional canvas marquee, Pippa, 33 – who is marrying multi-millionaire hedge fund boss James Matthews, 41 – has had the bespoke glass orangery shipped from Belgium.
The process is being overseen by Peppers Marquees, which holds the only royal warrant for supplying marquees to the Prince of Wales.
According to sources, workmen have been busy since the weekend putting up the structure on a camouflaged stage in a field at the rear of Michael and Carole Middleton's home in Bucklebury, Berkshire.

Although there will be 100 or so guests at St Mark's Church in the nearby village of Englefield for the ceremony, more than 300 are expected back at Middleton manor to dance the night away
The building, expected to take up to six days to finish, is so large and distinctive that it can be seen from both the main road and a public footpath running alongside the estate.

One expert estimated that it would cost around £35,000 plus VAT for the structure and floor system – but that was just 'the basics'.
With internal lighting, decor, carpeting, heating, sound and service marquees, the total could be more than double that.
'It's from a Belgian company called PBI and they are shipped over especially for events.
'For the full works, your bill would easily be around the £100,000 mark,' the expert said.

The women-only Knightsbridge club and spa is home to the Capri Palace Leg School, which uses a method of treatment involving mud packs, bandages, hot and cold water and stone massages pioneered by Italian anti-ageing guru Professor Francesco Canonaco.
