This mermaid dress, above the knees, and off the shoulders, Princess Diana had worn on June 29, 1994, to attend a dinner at the Serpentine Gallery in the gardens of Kensington Palace. A stroke of brilliance to the strict protocol of the royal family, which recommends clothing a little less sexy for official outings. And it was Elizabeth Debicki who wore a perfect copy, styled short and jeweled to perfection on the set of the series.
