On This Day In Royal History . 26 April 1923 . The wedding of Prince Albert, Duke of York, &  Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon took place on 26 April 1923 at Westminster Abbey. The couple were later known as King George VI & Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. . Wedding dress; . Elizabeth’s wedding dress was made from deep ivory chiffon moire, embroidered with pearls & a silver thread. It was intended to match the traditional Flanders lace provided for the train by Queen Mary. Elizabeth’s dress, which was in the fashion of the early 1920s, was designed by Madame Handley-Seymour, dressmaker to Queen Mary. Its design was reportedly based on a dress created by Jeanne Lanvin & was “suggestive of a medieval Italian gown”. Elizabeth chose not to wear a tiara, & instead a chaplet of leaves secured the veil. . A strip of Brussels lace, inserted in the dress, was a Strathmore family heirloom. A female ancestor of the bride wore it to a grand ball for “Bonnie Prince Charlie”, Charles Edward Stuart. . The silver leaf girdle had a trail of spring green tulle, trailing to the ground; silver & rose thistle fastened it. According to an era news article: “In the trimming the bride has defied all old superstitions about the unluckiness of green.” Elizabeth wore “an orange blossom wreath”, which featured “white roses of York”. The dress had two trains: “one fastened at the hips, the other floating from the shoulders”. . Unlike more recent dresses, details of this one were publicly revealed in advance of the wedding day. However, the dress was worked on until the last possible opportunity: the day before the wedding, Elizabeth divided her time between the wedding rehearsal & her dressmakers. . . . #GeorgeVI #KingGeorgeVI #Theking #TheQueen #kingandqueen #QueenElizabeth #Queenmother #Queenmum #LadyElizabeth #princealbert #dukeofyork #duchessofyork #DukeandDuchess #WestminsterAbbey #HouseofWindsor #RoyalFamily #BritishMonarchy #Monarchy #RoyalHistory #Royalty #BowesLyon #RoyalWedding #Wedding #weddingdayphotos #weddingphotography #vintagephotography #OnThisDayInHistory #thisdayinhistory #onthisday #d26apr (at Westminster Abbey) https://www.instagram.com/p/COIsERaMVSB/?igshid=1kr6r9u3pqw5c
