About this deal

Read more: Everything You Need To Know About ‘The Crown’ Season 5 Is there a trailer for ‘The Crown’ Season 4? Five monarchs (crowned and uncrowned); one abdication; one royal investiture; a jewel box of jubilees and many, many royal marriages… British Vogue has borne witness to a century of royal history. As another reign begins, The Crown in Vogue is the magazine’s ‘special royal salute’ to the House of Windsor. Photos are in b&w or color and there are little synopses that analyze each photo. There are also essays and other pieces that talk about the photos, Style & Substance of the subject. I also loved that along with the photos, the book would include some side notes of the history of the family and vogue along with the corresponding photographs.

The slippiest came in 1995, in the lead up to her explosive interview with the BBC’s Panorama programme. With extraordinary timing, a second report around how the corporation secured her – which found Martin Bashir faked bank documents that linked some of her closest advisors with a shady account he claimed was being used by MI5, and by extension the Royal Family, to keep her under surveillance – came out during filming. There is also a Family Tree of the Royal Family with Queen Victoria and Prince Albert at the top, coming down through to Prince William’s generation. Plus, his children and Harry’s are included, as well.Of interest, for their Royal Wedding issue, Princess Marina, who married Prince George, Duke of Kent and George V’s fourth son, in 1934, became the first royal to appear on a Vogue cover.

The final season of The Crown will take the series from the late ’90s to the early 2000s, encompassing the tragic death of Princess Diana in 1997. Who will play Princess Diana and Prince Charles in Season 6 of The Crown?

Vogue‘s first star photographer, Cecil Beaton, was entranced by the House of Windsor and the admiration was mutual. A younger star photographer, Antony Armstrong Jones, left Vogue to marry the Queen’s sister and returned as Lord Snowdon. The Queen’s cousin, Vogue‘s Lord Lichfield proved an insightful photographer of royal style along with many of Vogue‘s fashion photographers including Horst, Norman Parkinson and David Bailey. Limited edition print of Princess Elizabeth, 1948, photographed by Cecil Beaton, taken from the original Vogue archive transparency (B396-6) never before published by the magazine. But anyone who works on the show has a sense of how extremely difficult it is to be born into that [life],” she continues. Comparisons to the royal world seem almost impossible and yet she wonders if the reason the show attracts so many top actors is a shared sense of lost self. “The rules are sort of decided for you as well: less is more. Although, of course, Diana broke that rule. She broke the fourth wall, reaped the benefits, but the consequences came hard and heavy.” In response, a spokesperson for The Crown described the latest instalment of the show as “a fictional dramatisation, imagining what could have happened behind closed doors during a significant decade for the royal family – one that has already been scrutinised and well-documented by journalists, biographers and historians.” Expect yet more controversy to follow once the season airs. What will the costumes in The Crown season 5 look like?The next installment of Netflix’s big-budget, awards-laden original series is expected to cover the early to mid-1990s, a period in which the marriage of Prince Charles and Diana, Princess of Wales, was rapidly disintegrating.

British Vogue has borne witness to a century of royal history. As another reign begins, The Crown in Vogue is the magazine's 'special royal salute' to the House of Windsor. The photographs included are simply stunning. There were several that took my breath away. Some of my favorites were of Princess Margaret. She was so stunning and photogenic. Princess Anne also had some beautiful portraits included. It was an immense privilege to spend time looking through these extraordinary original images. If they were distressed, torn, or marked up in crayon, then so much the more fascinating. These were historical objects, every tear and blemish a witness to the royal century.
