Prince William and Prince Harry are lending their mother’s wedding dress to be displayed at a special exhibit starting this summer.
Yup, almost 40 years after Princess Diana’s wedding to Prince Charles, her David and Elizabeth Emanuel wedding dress is set to go on display at her former home—Kensington Palace—in a new exhibition.
Called Royal Style in the Making, the new display will also include pieces from the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret and will “explore the relationship between fashion designers and their royal clients.”
“Our summer exhibition at Kensington Palace will shine a spotlight on some of the greatest talents of British design, whose work has been instrumental in shaping the visual identity of the royal family across the twentieth century," Matthew Storey, exhibition curator at Historic Royal Palaces, said in a statement per People.
“We'll be exploring how the partnership between each designer and client worked, and revealing the process behind the creation of a number of the most important couture commissions in royal history. While one of the highlights will undoubtedly be Diana, Princess of Wales's show-stopping Emanuel designed wedding dress, which goes on show at the palace for the first time in 25 years—we've got some real surprises up our sleeve for fashion fans!”
The exhibit Royal Style in the Making opens on June 3, 2021, and lasts until January 2022. The Kensington Palace site adds, "To enable us to meet social distancing guidelines, we have limited the number of visitors on site at any one time."
