The post on the show's official Twitter account said: "A first glimpse of Princess Diana's wedding dress.

"Emmy award-winning costume designer Amy Roberts wanted to capture the same spirit and style of David & Elizabeth Emanuel's original design, without creating a replica for Emma Corrin."

Corrin, a relative newcomer whose previous credits include Misbehaviour and Grantchester, will portray Diana during the early part of her relationship with Charles.

She will then hand over the role to Elizabeth Debicki.

The fourth series also stars Olivia Colman as the Queen, Helena Bonham Carter as Princess Margaret, Tobias Menzies as the Duke of Edinburgh, Erin Doherty as Princess Anne and Marion Bailey as the Queen Mother.
