The world watched in awe as the Queen’s granddaughter Princess Eugenie walked down the aisle at St George’s Chapel last October to marry long-term partner Jack Brooksbank.
Now, the 28-year-old princess’ stunning wedding gown is set to be put on display at Windsor Castle, as part of an exhibition by the Royal Collection Trust, giving fans the chance to get a glimpse of the bespoke dress.
The news was confirmed on Friday as the royal family shared an announcement on their official social media pages, revealing that the entire wedding outfits worn by both Eugenie and her husband on October 12, 2018 will be publicly displayed from next month.
“The wedding outfits of HRH Princess Eugenie and Mr Jack Brooksbank will go on display at #WindsorCastle from 1 March-22 April 2019,” the statement read, alongside two photographs taken of the couple on their wedding day.

The young royal’s gown was designed for her by British designers Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos and featured a corset top and beautiful full skirt made from a blend of silk, cotton and viscose.
Eugenie – the youngest daughter of Princess Andrew and Sarah Ferguson – also requested that her gown have a low back, to show off the scars from surgery she had at the age of 12 to correct scoliosis.
The fabric of the dress was designed to include a number of symbols that were meaningful to Eugenie and Jack, including the White Rose of York and ivy, representing the couple’s home Ivy Cottage.
The exhibition, which runs for seven weeks, will not only allow royal fans to get a good look at Eugenie’s off-the-shoulder gown, as the stunning Greville Emerald Kokoshnik Tiara will also be displayed. One of the Queen’s personal tiaras, the stunning headpiece is made of diamond, emerald and platinum and features a large emerald stone in the centre.
Mr Brooksbank’s wedding outfit, which comprised of a black and grey morning suit with a vivid blue waistcoat, made by tailors at Huntsman on Savile Row, will also be shown.
Eugenie and Jack are following in the footsteps of her cousin Prince Harry and his wife the Duchess of Sussex, whose own wedding outfits were also placed on display at the end of last year.
Titled ‘A Royal Wedding: The Duke And Duchess Of Sussex’, the exhibition, which launched in October, gave fans a chance to relive the couple’s special day which was watched by millions across the globe, finishing just last month.
Meghan’s Givenchy gown was displayed alongside her intricate veil and husband Harry’s Savile Row-tailored military uniform.
