Anyone know where Lady Marina's iridescent dress is from?

Hi, I think this dress is so beautiful, and I'd love to know the brand. The woman is Lady Marina Windsor and she was wearing it at the wedding of Peter Phillips and Harriet Sperling this weekend.

I've done a reverse image search and asked ChatGPT, but no luck. Any of you style mavens know?

I love it, OP. If I could turn the clock back 25 years I'd wear the cream one as my wedding dress, and feel like a cross between Sarah Stockbridge in Vivienne Westwood and one of the sexy milkmaids in Blur's Country House video (this is genuinely high praise).

She's small enough up top that I don't think it really matters, although it is VERY low, isn't it.

it looks sore, squishing on the boobs like that, and flattening them down

Just buy some fabric and get a dressmaker to knock you one up (that fits). It wouldn't cost anywhere near the price of the designer version. Fabulous Quality Iridescent Taffeta - MERMAID!!! - Etsy UK

Thank you!!! That's a great idea, and the material you linked is a perfect match!

Why have some people called it a Disney dress? I don't get it. Also makes it sound like a silly-looking dress. 😢

She looks gorgeous in this. Lovely dress if you’re flat chested, but anything over an A cup is going to look really inappropriate at a wedding

I love the style too OP although I agree that it’s not fitted well to the lady that you shared the photo of.

i believe posters are saying ‘Disney’ dress because it looks similar to dresses worn by Disney princesses.

But I don't think it looks like any of their dresses. PP are making it sound unsophisticated and silly. 😭😭😭

I rather love the dress it doesn’t quite fit her though. Which is a shame. I like the drindles too but can’t imagine wearing an apron over something that costs in excess of a grand.

I definitely wouldn't do that, no.

Actually she's into sustainable fashion and often rents outfits or borrows from relatives or shops second-hand, so maybe!

It's Lady Marina Windsor, whose grandad is Prince Edward, the late Queen's first cousin. And Prince Edward's mother was Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark. She's a great-great-grand-daughter of George V, as well as grand-daughter of a prince and great-granddaughter of a princess. And she's also related to the late Prince Philip through that great-grandmother. So princes and princesses on both sides of her heritage, as well as being related to the current royals. There are photos of her on the balcony at Buckingham Palace with the rest of the royals at certain events. In other words, she's tres tres posh! I hope we get to see photos of her wedding dress when she gets married June 20th.

That dress doesn't suit her at all so I wouldn't hold out much hope for her wedding dress tbh.
