It's been five years since Kate Middleton and Prince William's royal wedding, but the Duchess of Cambridge's wedding dress is still a hot topic these days.

According to a new Sunday Times report, Alexander McQueen, the luxury fashion label responsible for Middleton's gorgeous wedding dress, is once again being sued for allegedly copying the design of the Duchess' dress.

Bridal designer Christina Kendall has filed a lawsuit against Alexander McQueen for alleged breach of copyright, claiming that there are many similarities between Middleton's gown and her own designs.

Kendall's lawyer alleged that her designs were "unfairly taken and copied" by McQueen, as quoted by the Sunday Times.

However, the fashion house quickly shot down the allegations, revealing that this isn't the first time Kendall has tried suing McQueen.

According to a spokesperson for Alexander McQueen, they are "utterly baffled" by Kendall's accusations, adding that the allegations were all "nonsense."

"Christine Kendall first approached us, at Alexander McQueen, almost four years ago, when we were clear with her that any suggestion Sarah Burton's design of the royal wedding dresses brisbane was copied from her designs was nonsense. Sarah Burton never saw any of Ms. Kendall's designs or sketches and did not know of Ms. Kendall before Ms. Kendall got in touch with us—some 13 months after the wedding," the rep told E! Newsvia statement.

"We do not know why Ms. Kendall has raised this again, but there are no if's, buts or maybes here: This claim is ridiculous," the statement concluded.

Middleton's lavish wedding gown, which was kept secret until the wedding on April 29, 2011, was designed by creative director Sarah Burton and handmade in the London McQueen studios.

However, Kendall will continue pushing for the lawsuit as she is "certain" that her designs were copied, according to the designer's solicitor Humna Nadim.

"Proceedings have been issued because our client is certain that her company's design was unfairly taken and copied. The claim is not against the Duchess and there is no allegation of wrongdoing against the palace," Nadim told The Telegraph.
