Elizabeth Debicki has undergone a stunning transformation into the likeness of Princess Diana for her role in The Crown. The 33-year-old Australian actress has remarkably captured the late Princess’s mannerisms and appearance, setting the stage for an anticipated performance when she reprises the role in the upcoming sixth and final season of the popular Netflix series.
Debicki’s portrayal has been widely acclaimed, and credit is also due to the skilled stylists who have played a significant role in her transformation. The show has meticulously recreated some of Princess Diana’s most iconic looks, from the famous Christina Stambolian black ‘Revenge Dress’ to the David Sassoon ‘Caring Dress’. Even Diana’s hairstylist, Sam McKnight, who was responsible for her iconic hairstyle, praised the production for its attention to detail and likeness.
During the filming process, however, Debicki faced some nervousness about recreating certain outfits, particularly expressing dread about wearing the salmon bike shorts that Diana famously donned in 1995. This outfit was notably omitted from filming due to unforeseen circumstances.
While the design choices have garnered significant praise, they have also faced criticism. Some fashion experts have criticized the recreation of certain iconic outfits as appearing ‘cheap’ or ‘inaccurate’. Notably, some designers who had created Diana’s original outfits were not consulted for their recreation on the show, leading to discrepancies in design and execution.
Despite these differing opinions, the undeniable resemblance between Elizabeth Debicki and Princess Diana is evident in the images captured during filming. The transformation has been a testament to Debicki’s talent and the dedication of the show’s stylists in capturing the spirit of Diana’s iconic presence.
