Summary

Here we will be diving into another random piece of history. The original peacock dress was designed by Jean-Phillipe Worth and worn by Mary Curzon, the Baroness of Kendleston at the 1902 Coronation of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra. It’s one of the most famous dresses in history, and it was a massive undertaking, resulting in one of the most ambitious reconstruction projects of all time.
