News about David Emanuel

The two designers of Princess Diana's wedding dress have settled a High Court battle over the auctioning of drawings of their designs. David Emanuel sued his ex-wife and business partner Elizabeth Emanuel over alleged copyright infringement nearly four years ago. He claimed she reproduced sketches of their designs for Diana, including the gown she wore to marry Prince Charles in 1981, and put them up for sale without his consent. 

From the green Burberry coat she wore dating Prince Charles to an iconic Versace gown on the cover of Harper's Bazaar - and even a piece of her wedding cake - it's a collection of treasures from every era of Princess Diana's life. Author and Diana expert Renae Plant has scoured the globe to amass a cornucopia of childhood toys, LPs, shoes, letters, and cards that once belonged to the late princess - including some of the most famous gowns in the world. Yet among the most surprising things of all is that this mesmerising collection remains entirely under lock and key, confined to the darkness of an anonymous warehouse in Los Angeles.

Lady Diana Spencer, aged 20, married Prince Charles, then 32, at St Paul's Cathedral on July 29, 1981, in an extravagant ceremony with 3,500 guests in attendance. Hailed the ' wedding of the century', a record-breaking 750 million people in 74 countries across the globe tuned in to watch the event on television.

He was going to look after me.'

A renowned fashion, who rose to fame for designing the wedding dress of Diana, Princess of Wales in 1981 admitted he regrets not styling one particular royal. Welsh fashion designer David Emanuel, 71, has a coveted resume, having dressed everyone from Catherine Zeta Jones to King Charles, but he really had his eyes on the late Queen Elizabeth, according to the Daily Star. While the Bridgend native is very well-accomplished, he wishes he'd expanded his fashion designing to the late monarch, the longest reigning queen in history. He told the Daily Star : 'Well, I've been fortunate to dress some of the beautiful women around the world. 'The only thing I regret is I never did anything for Her Majesty the Queen -I would have loved to have dressed her. At least something, but I missed that one.

The owner of a bridal store says she was forced out of London by the unpopular ULEZ scheme after its expansion'crippled' her sales. Linda Quayle (pictured with fashion designer David Emanuel) said she lost 75% of her clients after the city fell under the new roll-out in August. The Beau Brides boutique was established in Bexley Village on the Kent-London border and was able to defuse the first stage of the charging scheme. Ms Quayle, 56, had to leave London and relocate to Rochester High Street instead, but the new extension encompassed her area.

They have the finest designers, jewelry, and stylists that money can buy. However, royal women must negotiate a sartorial minefield whenever they step out in public. Some are no-nonsense habits that have developed over time, while others are simply the result of a monarch's whim. However, they must all be followed. Here are some of the more important royal dos and don'ts, from nail polish guidlines to strict rules on cleavage!

It was a gown that left millions around the world in awe, inspiring a whole new generation of brides-to-be. But the designer behind Princess Diana's classic wedding was left speechless and 'feeling faint,' for a completely different reason. Lady Diana Spencer walked down the aisle to visit Prince Charles with designers Elizabeth and David Emanuel. Elizabeth was 'horrified' after discovering how creased the dress had become as they watched Diana head up St Paul's on television.

It's already in controversies for its radical interpretation of royal history. And now some of Princess Diana's most popular fashion designers have come out at The Crown for failing to consult them on her iconic outfits. According to the couturier who made her wedding trousseau, many of the replica dresses were 'completely wrong,' while others were mocked for being 'cheap'. Netflix did not have to employ designer David Emanuel as a consultant, and spent 600 hours refinishing the £9,000 gown he envisioned for Diana's wedding. However, the programmers did not bother Christina Stambolian, who made the famous 'Revenge Dress' the princess wore openly when her husband Charles admitted to adultery on television in 1994.

JACK TEAGUE – The extent of his possessions - the 6,000-acre Stowell Park estate in Gloucestershire and the 10,000-acre Forest Estate on the Isle of Jura among them - testified to dexterous financial planning by his ancestors, saving the family from an estimated £88 million in taxes over the decades. However, Sam Vestey, the Queen's confidant and Master of The Horse, who died in 2012 at the age of 79, does not imitate those ancestors. The will, which has just been announced, shows that nearly three-quarters of his £15 million personal fortune was swallowed up by debt, lowering the total amount bequeathed to his five children by less than £4 million. Friends are left wondering where the majority went. The Jura estate was gifted to the boys two years ago,' I'm told, but it could have occurred too soon after Sam's death to ensure that it was exempt from inheritance tax.'
