Step into the splendour of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra’s 1902 Coronation at Westminster Abbey, which ushered in a golden age of style and glamour for the royal family. The royal couple set new trends that shaped Edwardian fashion and taste.
Queen Alexandra turned heads by commissioning the French couturier Morin Blossier to create her gold silk coronation gown. Covered with a fine net adorned with thousands of tiny gold spangles, the dress dazzled in the blaze of electric light at Westminster Abbey. We explore its unusual form, from the ruff-like collar, perhaps inspired by Tudor costume, to the double ‘winged’ sleeves. Join our textile conservator and learn how she carried out delicate silk-thread repairs to the fragile net overlay.
