70 Side-By-Side Photos of Royal Outfits That Were Recreated on The Crown

The Queen Mother’s wedding day outfit was drastically different. Actress Victoria Hamilton wore a brocade jacket with mink fur trimmings and a matching fur cap, but in real life the mother of the bride wore an off-white beaded gown with a white fur jacket and hat. The show’s costume designer, Janie Petrie, told Vanity Fair, “More often we’d take the spirit of what’s real and adapt it for the scene, working closely with the show’s royal advisor, Major David Rankin-Hunt, who was on set all day to answer any questions about royal style and etiquette.”
