The designer of Queen Camilla's incredible coronation gown has hinted that the dress will go on display at Buckingham Palace in the coming months.
British couturier Bruce Oldfield, 72, shared behind-the-scenes images on Instagram as he made the final touches to the Queen Consort's dress ahead of the ceremony at Westminster Abbey on 6 May.
The gown featured intricate, personal details including the four flower emblems of the UK, along with the names of her children, grandchildren and depictions of her beloved pet dogs, Beth and Bluebell.
One follower asked in the comments: "Is this part of the state rooms opening or a new coronation exhibition? Just I can't see it on their website so asking to be prepared as would love to see this in person!"
The designer replied: "I'm not sure but the date (14/07/23) is when it opens in the Palace."
HELLO! has reached out to the Royal Collection Trust for comment.
The Queen's coronation gown was a tailored ivory, silver and gold coat-like dress embroidered with delicate garlands of British wildflowers.
