Hello All! I’ve just received the latest newsletter from RSN & they are
conserving this 1911 gown. There is a short video & some photos showing the
ivory lace, jeweled lace & white fur trimmed claret velvet garment. I’m not
sure about the lace so perhaps an expert will comment?? In the meantime,
Thanks for alerting us to that Susan. The video is on YouTube at

The outfit was worn by the Countess of Carnavon at the Coronation of
George V in 1911

Thank you, very interested in seeing this as I was lucky enough to visit
Hampton Court and watch the ladies renovating and repairing. Also we had a very
interesting talk on the work carried out there. If you get the chance to go I
recommend it
