Description

Four-part bridesmaid garment collection

Collection of four elements of the bridesmaids' dresses from Princess Diana's wedding, including: a piece of the sleeve of a bridesmaid's dress, measuring 11″ in diameter, comprised of a layer of silk and a layer of lace; a 60″ length of lace for the sleeves or hem of a bridesmaid's dress, with a tag annotated "Clementine," attributing it to the dress of Clementine Hambro; thirteen pieces of the yellow-gold silk taffeta (inspired by the color of the Mountbatten rose) used for the bridesmaids' dress bands, in various cuts and sizes; and two cut swatches of the ivory silk used for the bridesmaids' dresses, each measuring approximately 18.5 x 7. In overall fine condition. The great-granddaughter of Winston Churchill, Clementine Hambro is famously remembered as 'the sobbing bridesmaid,' and was Diana’s favorite pupil at her former workplace, the Young England Kindergarten.
