I haven't had a chance to look for a pic of the new royal gown :( However,
it seems to me I remember reading somewhere that the old christening gown
had been made with a lace panel from Queen Victoria's wedding dress..which
explains why there is just one little panel left in the fron of the dress.
It had always been strange to me that that was all there was considering
that the lace took many lacers something like 8 months to manufacture. I
believe that many years ago we discussed this very same subject (on arachne)
and came to the conclusion that in today's money (early days of arachne)
that the lace for Victoria's dress would cost somewhere around 4 million
pounds. Sharon.on sunny (for a change) but cold Vancouver Island
