The Queen Mother’s Coronation gown toile will go on display at Hillsborough Castle.
The new exhibition “Royal Style in the Making” will feature the Queen Mother’s Coronation gown toile, an 18th century-style ballgown worn by Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon and an evening dress worn by the late Queen Elizabeth II at a State Dinner during her official visit to Bahrain in 1979.
In addition to the royal outfits on display, there will also be original design drawings from the finest British designers, such as Madame Handley Seymour, Norman Hartnell, Hardy Amies and Oliver Messel. The sketches from David Sassoon have some handwritten comments by Diana, Princess of Wales.
The exhibition at Hillsborough Castle will run from 15 March 2025 to 4 January 2026. Plan your visit here.
