Elizabeth Debicki shoots wearing Diana’s ‘revenge dress’

The depiction of Princess Diana’s problematic life may “ruffle a few feathers,” according to a spokeswoman for the hit series The Crown. This ruffling appears to be in the works. Actress Elizabeth Debicki, playing the Princess of Wales in the show’s fifth and sixth seasons, was recently observed filming for the series in the late Royal’s “revenge dress.”

What is this revenge dress?

Princess Diana wore a black off-the-shoulder gown to a Vanity Fair event for the Serpentine Gallery in Kensington Gardens in 1994. Christina Stambolian designed it, and it was adorned with a multi-layered pearl necklace with a sapphire in the centre. The Queen Mother, Elizabeth, gave her this centre jewel as a present. The dress gets its name from the confession of Prince Charles. 

This was because ITV showed a programme about her then-estranged husband, Prince Charles, on the same night. During his marriage to Diana, the Prince of Wales acknowledged having an affair with his now-wife Camilla, according to this documentary. According to biographers, Diana was going to wear something completely different to the event but changed her mind at the last minute and chose the “bold” dress.

What to expect from the series?

The Netflix series chronicles the stories of the British royal family’s several generations. Season 5 of The Crown will centre on Princess Diana and Prince Charles’ tumultuous marriage. We can expect the following seasons of the Netflix drama to be rather explosive now that we know Debicki is shooting in a replica of the famed outfit. As series watchers are aware, the fourth season ended with Diana and Charles battling to keep their marriage together. As a result, the next two seasons are planned to centre on their deteriorating relationship and the ramifications of it.
