Princess Anne

Princess Anne’s marriage to Captain Mark Phillips was an occasion celebrated by the entire world in 1973. However, the big surprise was that Anne chose a ready-to-wear designer Maureen Baker to create her wedding gown. While some suggested that a couturier would have been more appropriate, Anne wanted to prove she was a thoroughly modern girl!
Princess Anne’s wedding dress is truly one of the kind. Breaking with the traditional skirt and boned bodice seen in previous royal weddings, Anne chose a design that was medieval in inspiration. Made from a gorgeous heavy satin, the gown featured floral design, square neck, and long train.
