Every bride wants to feel like a princess on her wedding day, and thanks to a few helpful fashion copycats out there, you can look like the princess bride of the moment, Kate Middleton!

Dress manufacturers Shala and Omid Moradi of Faviana showed E! News how they started working on ripoff copies of Kate's Sarah Burton-designed stunner as soon as the bride stepped out of her Rolls Royce Phantom VI. 

And believe it or not, the Moradis aren't even the only designers readying knockoffs of Kate's wedding gown!

There will be many contestants in the Kate Middleton ripoff race, so don't be afraid to comparison shop, folks!

Among other things, A.B.S. by Allen Schwartz will "unveil a one-of-a-kind exclusively designed wedding gown" inspired by Kate's dress at the 18th Annual Race to Erase MS event today in Los Angeles.

Omid told E! News: "There will also be several versions of this dress. In addition to the bridal gown, there will be a special occasion gown in ivory…and we will surely be making this long-sleeved lace trend into color goods for other occasions as well."

Shala said: "The dress is real elegant, and this is what we were expecting. She's a very understated girl. She's very simple and elegant. I was expecting to see her in a lace, long-sleeve dress. And I think was not too much, not a big train, easy to wear, very light and very comfortable."

The designers are optimistic that they can have a copy of Kate's dress completed by Monday.
