REGAL TREAT The rare chance to look into the working life of the British Royal Family starts on July 23 with Buckingham Palace Summer Opening 2011 running for eight weeks with two major highlights; the Duchess of Cambridge’s wedding dress, designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, made from ivory and white satin gazar (stiffened organza) will be on display. As will a Royal Fabergé exhibition which explores how six successive generations of the British Royal Family, from Queen Victoria to Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales, have shaped the finest collection of Fabergé in the world - one that is unparalleled in size, range and quality.
