My first book launch: Published author Pippa changes into FOUR different dresses to promote her party guide

Her big sister has had more than a year to become one of the world’s fashion icons.
So when it came to her big day in the spotlight, perhaps Pippa Middleton thought she had some catching up to do.
The 29-year-old wore no fewer than four outfits for her book launch in London yesterday, altogether costing at least £2,959 – more than some first-time authors might hope for as an advance.

But then, Miss Middleton – whose advance was said to be an astonishing £400,000 –  isn’t any first-time author.
Eight camera crews from around the world were on hand as she launched her party planning guide Celebrate: A Year of British Festivities for Families and Friends at a Fulham book store.
The hostess with the mostess chose a plum-coloured shift from one of sister Kate's favourite designers Roksanda Ilincic to pose for photographers before changing in to an embellished LBD by Markus Lupfer to host a children's Halloween party in the store. She finally donning a tweed panelled dress from Stella McCartney as she left the event to continue the celebrations with friends and family.
Earlier she had worn another different outfit for the book signing at Foyles, choosing a futuristic long-sleeved dress featuring an abstract panel by Paper London which is on sale on their website for £395.
Earlier this afternoon Pippa tried to sneak in to the book store via the back entrance, but her famous curves gave the game away and photographers snapped her disappearing in to Daunt books in the elegant knee-length shift, which she teamed with patent stiletto shoes and a power blow-dry to rival sister Kate's glossy mane.
After posing for photographers with her book Pippa changed in to a little black dress featuring a sparkling green pattern to play with the children who were attending her Halloween party.
And then there was another quick change as she pulled on a sleeveless tweed dress from British designer Stella McCartney featuring slimming optical illusion panels on the back, which she accessorised with a Tabitha London clutch bag and bespoke Emmy court shoes.
