I don't understand which bit of credit I have to give for the photo and/or modification so I've simply copied it all from Wikipedia.

Problem
You can see the wedding dress. Which wedding dress? Kate's. Not Meghan's. Kate's.

Answer
Not the Victoria and Albert Museum, but Buckingham Palace. Open all summer.

The queen thought it was horrible - not the dress, the display. She said so, on video.

I agree. It would be better with Kate's face and body, filling it out, reminding us of the occasion, smiling. I know we are looking at the dress, not the person, but you also need to soncider whether it flatters her shape, her face.

Closer to the dress would be better, too. Even if the dress has to be protected behind glass.

This weekend was for the bride, Meghan, married to Harry on May 19 2018. (Without mishap - thank goodness.)

Kate takes precedence, married earlier, and to Harry's older brother William, who is in line for the throne after their Father Prince Charles, his three children coming before Harry.
