The items from the Netflix series include a replica of the famous “revenge dress” worn by Diana, Princess of Wales.
Close to 450 props will be auctioned by Bonhams including replicas of the late Queen’s coronation robes and Diana, Princess of Wales’ leopard print swimsuit and Versace sunglasses, worn in the first instalment of the final season.
A custom-made replica of Diana’s so-called revenge dress is expected to fetch between £8,000 and £12,000.
It was the dress she wore the same night the then-Prince of Wales confessed to infidelity on national television.
Other items to go under the hammer include a full-length ivory wedding dress and veil worn by Vanessa Kirby as Princess Margaret and the Number 10 Downing Street facade and front door, estimated to fetch between £20,000 and £30,000.
Also for sale is a replica of Buckingham Palace’s wrought iron gates, estimated at between £6,000 to £8,000, and a reproduction of the Queen’s Coronation carriage, which is expected to sell for between £30,000 and £50,000.
Further items from the Netflix series include the engagement ring worn by actress Emma Corrin as Diana and the royal blue crepe skirt suit with pussybow blouse she wore during the engagement announcement with Charles.
Profits from the auction will go towards establishing The Crown Scholarship programme in partner with television company Left Bank Pictures at the National Film and Television School (NFTS) which has sites across the UK.
Over the next 20 years, the programme will support dozens of students attending the NFTS, helping them to receive specialised training in behind the camera craft specialisations from editing and composition to directing and production design.
