Royal Family Fashion Faux Pas That Were Recorded on Camera

When Princess Diana Wrinkled Her Wedding Dress

Princess Diana’s wedding dress remains one of the most iconic bridal gowns in history, even if its 1980s style—complete with puffed sleeves and voluminous fabric—doesn’t quite match today’s trends. At the time, brides everywhere dreamed of replicating her $115,000 gown, which captured the world’s imagination. But have you ever noticed how wrinkled the dress looked during the ceremony? Those creases weren’t part of the design

Instead, they were the result of Diana sitting in her carriage for too long on the way to St. Paul’s Cathedral. Reports say her designer felt “faint” upon seeing the wrinkled gown and was “horrified” that it didn’t look as intended. Despite this, the dress still became a symbol of elegance and fairy-tale romance. Isn’t it fascinating how even imperfections can’t diminish the legacy of such a historic moment? The gown’s timeless influence continues to inspire bridal fashion today, proving that Diana’s style was truly unforgettable.
