The fabric of the dress, also designed by Mr Pilotto and Mr de Vos, includes a number of symbols that are meaningful to Princess Eugenie, such as the White Rose of York, interwoven with ivy.

Jewellery: Her Royal Highness wore the Greville Emerald Kokoshnik Tiara, which was lent to her by The Queen. On public display for the first time, the tiara is made of brilliant and rose-cut diamonds pavé set in platinum, with six emeralds on either side. It was made for Mrs Greville in 1919 by the Parisian jewellery house Boucheron in the fashionable ‘kokoshnik’ style popularised in the Russian Imperial Court. Mrs Greville bequeathed the tiara to Queen Elizabeth, consort of King George VI, in 1942.

The flowers: A replica of Her Royal Highness’s bridal bouquet, made from artificial flowers, has been created for the exhibition. Designed by Rob Van Helden Floral Design, the bouquet consisted of lily of the valley, stephanotis pips, baby-blue thistles, white spray roses, trailing ivy and sprigs of myrtle from Osborne House. The myrtle bush at Osborne grew from a piece in the posy given to Queen Victoria by Prince Albert’s grandmother the year that the royal couple bought the house on the Isle of Wight as a family retreat. A sprig from the shrub was carried in the bridal bouquet of Queen Victoria’s eldest daughter, Princess Victoria, at her wedding in 1858, and the tradition has been continued by royal brides ever since.

The evening gown: Princess Eugenie’s evening gown was created by designer Zac Posen. Mr Posen said he took inspiration from the beauty of Windsor Castle and the surrounding countryside, and chose a fabric in the blush colour of an English rose. The gown is made of British silk chiffon and incorporates a cape, subtly embroidered with the White Rose of York, gathered at the lower back and draping into a softly pleated full-length train.

Also on display are two diamond wheat-ear brooches, lent to The Princess by The Queen and worn by the Princess as hair slides at the evening reception. On public display for the first time, the brooches were originally commissioned by William IV (1765–1837) for Queen Adelaide (1792–1849) and were inherited by Her Majesty in 1952. The Queen has worn them as both hair slides and brooches.

Bridesmaids and Pageboys: The outfits were by the London-based children’s designer Amaia Kids. The pattern on their sashes was based on a work by the American artist Mark Bradford, which was also reproduced on the Order of Service.

    At long last we can see the evening gown, in all of it's full glory, and splendor! Wow! Didn't even know it had also a train. And Eugenie certainly nailed it, and brought the best out of both gowns

    Eugenie seems like such a sweet, genuine person. Beautiful clothes from the wedding and she looked great in the checked coat for the visit.

  6. The dress is so gorgeous and you can now see the intricacy of the fabric which was maybe not so obvious when she was wearing it. Her outfit when viewing the exhibition is great. The coat really suits her and I agree with Anon 11 04, she does seem like a lovely and genuine person.

    The whole exhibition is so beautiful;I loved her wedding dress,the childrens outfits were so fresh. The hair slides belonging to Queen Adelaide is so poignant I live in Adelaide Australia.The flowers are so sympathetic to Eugenie's heritage;Queen Victoria. Eugenie is a stylish intelligent young royal,very supportive to Her Majesty.
