At last The Crown is feeding our royal fashion cosplay obsession

HAS it really been seven years since we started reliving the Windsor dynasty in binge-TV form?

This week, the final epiH sodes of The Crown will air and with it our royal soap opera enabler ends (until Harry or Meghan write another book, at least). I might be biased, but aside from Mustique-era Princess Margaret, the clothes have been the best bit.

If we're honest, most of us were hanging on for the Princess Diana cosplay years - the Instagram-catnip revenge dress, slogan sweatshirts, Lady Dior bag etc.

They are still playing out in more art imitating life scenarios - for the premiere last week Emma Corrin (who played young Diana) was styled by Harry Lambert in a look referencing a Jasper Conran suit Diana wore in Florence in 1984. But, in the show, earlier character portrayals did allow other HRHS to have their moment. Take Erin Doherty's Princess Anne, who inspired endless ruminations on whether or not the King's sister was actually the fashion fox we'd all overlooked. Although as one commentator recently offered: "Stop trying to make Princess Anne happen." Fair.
