This gorgeous ornate evening gown was designed by Catherine Walker for the 1992 Royal Tour of India as well as for portraits and auction catalogue photos. It comprises a heavily beaded and embroidered strapless bodice over a heavy, gathered, dropped-waist skirt and finished with a bolero matching the bodice design solidly beaded with sequins, gold glass beads and gold braid incorporating elements of Mogul art. It raised nearly $62,000 in the Christie’s auction, then was resold at the liquidation of the original owner’s collection of thirteen Diana gowns for £66,000.
Replicas at top left are by Alana Bennett, Bea Doll Boutique, Tommie Peacock, Mariana (France). and Axelle Marion.
