Some of Princess Margaret (Vanessa Kirkby)’s costumes from Philip Martin and Stephen Daldry&rs

Some of Princess Margaret (Vanessa Kirkby)’s costumes from Philip Martin and Stephen Daldry’s ‘The Crown’ (2016), designed by Michele Clapton and Timothy Everest.Clapton said about designing Margaret’s costumes: ‘For her costumes, I wanted to look at the movement outside of the royal family – what was really going on. We also hand painted and beaded this lovely mink coloured dress for a scene when she gives a speech at the American embassy, and I just thought, “I’m going to put great big pockets in it.” I loved the idea of her having pockets in this evening dress so that she could swagger around, and Vanessa loved that too. One shirt I really wanted to do was in a Brutalist print, a nod to her later dabble in the arts. With Margaret, everything was just a little better cut – the coats were a bit longer, there was just a bit more thought about it. I enjoyed playing the two sisters against each other.’(Full interview here) -- source link
