The largest exhibition of Queen Elizabeth's clothing ever staged is set to open at Buckingham Palace in April, and on Monday, March 2, the Royal Collection Trust announced that one sentimental item that's never been on public display will be included. The delicate lace christening gown worn by 62 royal babies will join approximately 200 items from the late Queen's fashion archive in "Queen Elizabeth II: Her Life in Style."
The exhibit, which opens April 10 at The King's Gallery at Buckingham Palace, will explore Queen Elizabeth's life through her fashion and coincides with what would have been her 100th birthday. Her incredible lace robe was first worn by Queen Victoria's eldest child, Princess Victoria, for her 1841 christening and went on to be worn by everyone from Queen Elizabeth and her children to Prince William and Prince Harry.
