These stunning pictures show the beautiful, award-winning knitwear designer, Jemma Sykes’ amazing creation, a queens dress made from 100% hand-knitted organic wool.
The dress is called ‘The Elizabeth’ and was displayed at Harrods in London before being auctioned at a charity event for Breast Cancer Care.
I love the elegant, queen-like shape of this dress and even though it is made from hand-knitted wool and not from luxurious silk, it is still stunningly beautiful.
