Princess Diana's wedding dress designer was 'horrified' when she saw gown on big day
Princess Diana’s wedding dress designer Elizabeth Emanuel was “horrified” with how the late royal’s wedding dress turned out.Her gown was said to have been worth an eye-watering £9,000 and included a whopping six different fabrics and 10,000 pearls.
Recalling the moment, designer Elizabeth said in appearance on ITV's Invitation to the Royal Wedding in 2018, as per Mirror Online: “We did know it would crease a bit but when I saw her arrive at St Paul's and we saw the creasing I actually felt faint. In a dress rehearsal before the big day, a different material was said to have been used for Diana’s gown and didn’t appear as creased as it did when she arrived to wed Charles.
“We made two bouquets. The first one had to be delivered at 8 o'clock to Buckingham Palace. We had a police escort motorcyclist who took us all through the city to the Palace,” David said of the former Prince and Princess of Wales’ wedding day.He added: “If we go back to the Queen’s wedding in 1947, when you look at the state photographs of all the bridesmaids and royal guests – there’s the Queen without a bouquet.
