The nuptials of second-in-line-to-the-throne Prince William and Kate Middleton are going to dominate the news for months.
For those that find the whole business too nauseating, designer Lydia Leith has come up with a handy receptacle: the ‘Throne Up’ screen-printed sick bag.
The first batch of royal wedding-themed ‘barf bags’ sold out almost immediately after being made available online.
The bags, which are available in royal blue or pillarbox red, were initially dreamt up as a bit of a gag – sorry, joke – but are now available through Leith’s Big Cartel shop for the princely sum of £3.
"I’m a fan of royal memorabilia and I just thought it would be a light-hearted addition to what’s available," Leith told the Huffington Post. Hear hear.
