Cream wool wedding dress with Celtic motif
Designed by Jean Muir, 1969
T.268-1986

This high-waisted wool dress with a collar and smock sleeves was worn by Lady Pamela Harlech, a former 'Vogue' editor, at her 1969 wedding. The bride wore strips of braid in her hair to match the Celtic design on the front of the dress. The 'New York Times' reported that family members at the ceremony were 'all wearing flamboyant, hippie-style outfits'.
