Description: Souvenir tea towel/dish towel ONLY available from the Kensington Palace gift shop. This exhibit, "Royal Style in the Making" marked the first and ONLY time Diana's spectacular wedding dress was on display at her former home, Kensington Palace. This tea towel was one of the few items in the gift shop with the wedding dress sketch on it and SOLD OUT quickly! There will NOT be any more made. Diana's wedding dress is jointly owned by Prince William and Prince Harry. Given their disastrous fallout, who knows if both brothers will ever agree to display it again. The design of this tea towel features a reproduction of the Dress's original sketch by its creators David and Elizabeth Emanuel -- including a facsimile of Elizabeth Emanuel's signature. The title of the exhibit ("ROYAL STYLE in the making") is emblazed on the top border. A subtle sketch of the Kensington Palace gates (in faint gray) is printed above the dress. Unused with original tag from Historic Royal Palaces. Fabric tag embroidered with Historic Royal Palace's crown logo denotes that this as an official HRP product. The towel even has a handy, sturdy fabric loop sewn in. All purchases help to support the palaces. HRP is an independent charity which raises all of its own funds and keeps the spirit of the palaces alive for the future -- for everyone. 17" x 26". 90% cotton/10% linen. Made in the UK. On loan from her sons Prince William and Prince Harry, the dress had fairytale puffed sleeves with a record-breaking twenty-five foot train and featured a piece of antique Carrickmacross Irish lace which Queen Mary (Queen Elizabeth's grandmother) previously owned. The dress and train are magnificently detailed and have over 10,000 hand-sewn sequins and pearls. In this exhibit, the iconic gown was reconnected with a number of other treasured items, from original sketches to offcuts and trial pieces. Having recently retired, I am now downsizing my 40+ year Princess Diana collection. Please have a look at my other auctions. New items added weekly (sometimes even more often.) Please check for new listings. Combined shipping on multiple purchases. Packed CAREFULLY -- shipped promptly. Thank you so much for looking.
