Opening in April 2023, visitors to Kensington Palace will be able to enjoy the largest exhibition ever to be held inside its walls – Crown to Couture. Exploring the similarities between the Georgian Court and the contemporary red carpet, visitors will be immersed in a glamorous world which demonstrates how both a court attendance or a red-carpet appearance can form one of the greatest stages for fashionable display.

Over two hundred objects will be going on display across the glittering State Apartments and intimate exhibition spaces, including an array of some of the most magnificent items from Historic Royal Palace’s own collection. Set to be one the most spectacular displays ever seen at the palace, it will transport visitors back to the 1720s and 30s when Kensington was at its most exciting and politically important, and will be set against some of the world’s most recognisable red carpet looks.
