I’ve not seen any of them in person, but I know this one has shown up a couple of places.

I saw this lovely dress in an exhibition in Edinburgh – the coronation dress Genevieve wore in the film was shown too – I wonder where that went ??. Margaret Furse’s costumes are timeless and so beautiful..
Wow Carole! That’s amazing. I would love to see these beautiful dresses in person. Do you remember how long ago this was?
It was at the Ideal Home Exhibition at the Waverly. Think it was 1969 when the film came out and was showing at the Odeon. There was a fashion show at the exhibition and the gasps when the lady came out wearing ‘The Coronation Gown’ was wonderful !. I would have been about 9 or 10 but have never forgotten it.
Wow, Carole! What a great story! Thank you so much for sharing. What a wonderful experience!
They shouldn’t do that to such a beautiful dress!!! It was fine enough the way it was made for “Anne of the Thousand Days”!!
If someone is interested, I’ve created a list in GoodReads with the best orange/yellow/golden dresses in book covers. It’s name is “Golden as the Sunset”
I know – it’s sad isn’t it? I’ve no idea if they altered the dress for this film, or if it was altered in another film that we haven’t found yet. None the less – the dress was stunning in its original form and should not have been changed.
What an act of vandalism to “remake” such a beautiful dress!
