Fashion Historian Fact Checks The Crown's Wardrobes | Glamour

SHE SAVED COUPONS, PERIODTT QUEEN.

I love that Diana wore her family's tiara.

The Queen is a royal ensemble dresser. She never leaves the castle without her bag and her bag matches her outfit

I hate that The Crown only showed the dress for like 2 seconds, and completely skipped over the entire wedding.

Her crown broke and her flowers went missing... they say the more mishaps you have on your wedding day the better the marriage is! And it's true because her and Phillip have been married for about 75 years!

I love that she also understands different costume choices and doesn't just shade every false thing...

Diana’s wedding dress always makes me think of Anne of Green Gables. Anne Shirley would have been in ecstasies about those puffed sleeves!

The only issue with Diana's wedding gown is the veil in the series covers up too much of her hair in front, whereas in real life it was the tiara that was more prominent, with the veil attached more toward the back of it.

Princess Elizabeth’s wedding dress was absolutely gorgeous.

It’s so crazy how fashion changes throughout the years

I love all of Raissa's videos also that corgi pin is so cute.

I always felt that Diana looked like a little girl lost in all that fabric on her wedding day, drowning in the taffeta and lace.

Did y’all finally get a new artist!?!!? The new illustrations look great!!

Like it or not, Diana's wedding dress put her on the map. The cathedral is so big and formal, you need something remarkable, and I loved it!

Being a kid back then,when I seen Diana in her gown I thought she was a Disney princess (didn’t know what a real princess was) and to this day I still find it GORGEOUS.

Raissa should have her own Youtube channel already to cover the topics she wants besides for other companies

Diana's bouquet! 💐 It was completely overlooked that it contained a LOT of stephanotis, a delicate star-shaped white flower that required special handling and was widely in use in the 1980s. You can see them in Diana’s bouquet, all strung together on a wire, forming some of the cascading elements of the bouquet. Stephanotis flowers are rarely used today, as the fashion for DIY and hand-tied bouquets in the 2000s rendered them unsuitable. They are best handled by professionals...I hope they make a comeback!

Unpopular opinion, but I thought even back then that Diana's dress was absolutely dreadful. It was a wrinkled mess by the time she arrived at St. Paul's, and it just swallowed her whole. The overall image was that it was just too big for her. She couldn't walk gracefully in it, it was a terror to manage..overall just too. much. I guess in the end, a fitting metaphor?

The TV viewing of the royal wedding of Diana and her prince made her dress look dull and sort of dowdy - it was NOT! I saw it in Brisbane when it was on the tour of Australia and found it stunning, gorgeous and utterly charming. For instance, her veil had tiny crystals scattered throughout it and it complemented her dress beautifully. One didn't see that on the screen. The dullness was caused by it not being white, plus TV did nothing to bring out the pearls or crystals, but in real life it was the loveliest wedding dress I've ever laid eyes upon. Diana was a romantic and wished her wedding gown to reflect that ideal; it did in every way possible and I'm sure she felt like a princess in it on her big day, and isn't that part of being a bride?

16:59 It notably took place at St. Paul's Cathedral, not Westminster Abbey, since the wedding was enormous and meant to befit a first in-line to the throne male. A prince of Wales hadn't been married while he held that title since the reign of Victoria, so St. Paul's was considered the larger and more theatric option.
