Women in the background of Queen Elizabeth II

I enjoyed this fictionalized story of the young seamstresses who made the Queen's wedding dress. The history was actual enough to be convincing. The wedding dress took backstage to the stories and a mystery involving a couple of generations of women characters. Readers would be fans of the Queen and/or mid 20th century life in England. I started the book just days after the Queen's death in 2022.

The Gown

I am not usually into historical books but enjoyed reading The Gown. I enjoy the writing style of Jennifer Robson very much and will read more of her books.

The Gown

My sister-in-law recommended this book to me. Though it is fiction, it is based on the true story of the making of the Royal Wedding Gown during the rationing in Europe. I kept finding myself on my computer looking at the various things listed in the book. It seems like you are there in the making of the dress. You will love this book. Really got me excited to read additional publications by Jennifer Robson. A talented historical/fiction writer.
