Princess Diana's favorite designer set to make Queen Consort Camilla's coronation gown

Queen Camilla has picked Diana’s favorite designer for her coronation gown after they became ‘firm friends.'

• Queen Consort Camilla has reportedly picked Diana’s favorite designer to create her gown for the King's Coronation on May 6.
• Camilla has become good friends with Bruce Oldfield over the years and he has dressed her for some huge events.
• This royal news comes after Princess Charlotte’s nickname at school was revealed to be completely different from her nickname at home.

Queen Consort Camilla has reportedly picked a fashion designer who was also loved by Princess Diana to make her coronation gown. 

According to The Sun, Bruce Oldfield is secretly working for Camilla after they became ‘firm friends’. 

While Bruce is keeping the details under wraps, an insider told the publication, “Camilla has a very close friendship with Bruce spanning many years so in many ways it is the natural and obvious choice.

“Camilla trusts Bruce because he has really delivered on dresses for so many important occasions recently for her.”

Camilla will wear the gown when stands alongside King Charles in Westminster Abbey on May 6.

Bruce’s previous work includes some iconic outfits worn by Princess Diana in the 1980s - including a particularly striking power suit.

He first met the late princess through charity Barnado's where she was president from 1984 to 1996, and a friendship grew.

Prince William and Harry’s mother famously wore a Bruce Oldfield black velvet evening gown for an official portrait by Lord Snowdon, and at the first-night gala opening of Les Miserables at the Barbican center in 1985.

The dress has since been auctioned off for charity, going for around $59,000 (£50,000).

Opening up about styling Diana, Bruce previously said, “When I look back, it was relentless for her. We did dress her up like she was going to a wedding every day.”

Since the 80s, the designer has gone on to make dresses for stars such as Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, and Taylor Swift.

He has also become a close friend of Camilla and dressed her in a beautiful outfit for the State Opening of Parliament in 2015, as well as the James Bond premiere of No Time To Die two years ago.

He was awarded an OBE in 1990, and previously said, “I gave Diana her glamour and Camilla her confidence.”

This comes after it was revealed Camilla wore a crown brooch costing a huge $39,000 (£33,000) at a recent event.

The Queen Consort recently hosted a reception for well-known authors at Clarence House for 'Camilla’s Reading Room' which is now a charity.

According to Steven Stone, the crown brooch has been valued at an incredible $39K (£33K), with Diamond expert Maxwell Stone telling the Daily Express about the piece.

He said, "The silver brooch features a band studded with sapphire, ruby, and emerald.

"The Tudor crown is particularly symbolic as it stylizes King Charles III's cypher."
