Princess Diana's 'Revenge Dress' Recreated Perfectly on 'The Crown' Set With Elizabeth Debicki
An Incredible Likeness
"It's a good thing Kristen Stewart's version of Princess Diana is out now because no actress is ever going to want to play her again after Elizabeth Debicki's turn comes next year," tweeted fashion bloggers Tom & Lorenzo.

Fans Melt Down
Netflix made the casting announcement about Debicki in August 2020. "Princess Diana's spirit, her words and her actions live in the hearts of so many. It is my true privilege and honour to be joining this masterful series, which has had me absolutely hooked from episode one," the actress said in a statement. From the fan reaction alone, it's pretty clear that they nailed it. "ELIZABETH DEBICKI WEARING THE REVENGE DRESS IM COLLAPSING," tweeted another excited fan.
