The Crown is fictionalized, but roots its story in real-world details of the U.K. royal family. From historical events to the clothing of the time, the show works hard to get the details right. These Princess Diana outfits The Crown recreated for Season 5 absolutely nailed it.
The series doesn’t miss with this one. It perfectly recreates the Christina Stambolian dress Diana wore. It even keeps the timeline: Charles’ special and the Vanity Fair dinner at the Serpentine Gallery in Kensington Gardens happened on the same night.
Finally, there’s the BBC interview for Panorama with Martin Bashir. The recreation of this interview is downright uncanny — check out this video of the two side by side — and the outfit is exact.
