Designers of Princess Diana’s iconic wedding dress have settled their dispute over drawings of the gown. David Emanuel, who worked on the dress with his ex-wife Elizabeth Emanuel, had filed a lawsuit against her in the U.K. courts. He claimed that she reproduced drawings of their collaborative designs, including those for Diana’s wedding dress, without his consent for an auction.
The Emanuels announced on Friday that they have reached an amicable settlement in the case. The terms of the agreement have not been disclosed to the public. Princess Diana’s wedding dress, worn for her marriage to Prince Charles in 1981, remains a significant symbol of that era. The extravagant gown featured yards of lace and a 25-foot train, capturing the hearts of people worldwide as she walked down the aisle of St. Paul’s Cathedral.
The dress designed by the Emanuels continues to be a timeless representation of Princess Diana’s style and grace. This settlement marks the end of a legal dispute that surrounded the drawings of one of the most famous wedding dresses in history.
