NETFLIX drama The Crown will recreate the famous moment when Prince William was blown away by Kate Middleton wearing a see-through dress in a fashion show.

The royal series, which is set to air this autumn, will cover the era when the young couple, played by fledgling actors Ed McVey and Meg Bellamy, started courting.

It was during their time as students at St Andrew’s University that the future Princess of Wales caused a sensation when she wore the very revealing outfit.

Producers of The Crown showed images of the recreated moment this week at the Edinburgh TV Festival as they discussed the sixth and final season.

They confirmed that the fatal car crash of Princess Diana, played by Elizabeth Debicki, would also appear in the upcoming series, but that it would be handled with: “enormous sensitivity.”

Executive Producer Suzanne Mackie said: “There was no question that we would be, firstly, meticulous in our research and read and listen, and of course secondly and most importantly is to be sensitive.

“There was very, very careful, long, long conversations about how we do it, and the audience will judge it in the end. But I think it’s been delicately, thoughtfully recreated.

“Elizabeth Debicki herself, my goodness, she’s an extraordinary actress and she was so, so thoughtful and considerate and loved Diana so there was a huge amount of respect from us all – I hope that’s evident when you see it.”
