embroidered strapless ball gown.
According to
Deadline, the film’s action takes place over three days, including one of
Princess Diana’s final Christmas holidays in England at the House of Windsor.
“We all grew up, at least I did in my
generation, reading and understanding what a fairy tale is,” the movie’s
director, Pablo Larraín, mentioned the outlet. “Usually, the
prince comes and finds the princess, invites her to become his wife and
eventually she becomes queen. That is the fairy tale.”

“When someone decides not
to be the queen, and says, I’d rather go and be myself, it’s a big, big
decision,” he added. “A fairy tale upside down. I’ve always been very
surprised by that and thought it must have been very hard to do. That is the
heart of the movie.”
“We decided
to get into a story about identity, and around how a woman decides somehow, not
to be the queen,” Pablo Larraín had told Deadline in June 2020. “She’s a woman who, in the
journey of the movie decides and realizes that she wants to be the woman she
was before she met Charles.”
