History can never be forgotten. Neither can it ever stop being fascinating. A walk down the memory lane may be an idyllic walk in the park. However, tracing the footsteps back to some of the most redefining moments of global history is a different tale. In its efforts to pioneer the content space, Netflix bet big when it released The Crown back in 2016. A thorough retelling of the events surrounding the life of the late Queen Elizabeth II, the series served as a reminder to people just how murky power can be.

In the meantime, as the show stands ready to drop its final six episodes, fans look over one of the most underrated aspects of the historical drama – fashion. Starting way back from 1947 to the current turn of the millennium canon, the show has put on a gallant reenacting of the royal fashion lexicon. While it may not find much mention amid the cut-throat riveting story pieces, Netflix just showcased its efforts and fans could hardly refrain from agreeing.

Royal protocols are often as sternly strict and straight as a line. The very ethos of those would even find mention by visiting guests such as the cast of Suits.  However, in the show, the outfits remained a near-immaculate replica of the ages. Princess Margaret’s pearl necklace and earrings adorning Helena Bonham Carter may just be the tip of the iceberg. Ranging from tiered frill and draped suits of the 80s to bootcut jeans, the resemblance is spot-on.

Queen Elizabeth II’s lavishly embroidered green gown and the simple opulence surrounding the air during her visit to Ghana are all major recreations that find stray mentions. Moreover, the Duchess of Windsor’s Champagne Gown to Princess Margaret’s Angelic Birthday Gown were scene stealers. Finally, the polka dot dress and wedding attires all lay credibility to the intricate details the makers put in while crafting the show from its bare bones.

Fans were quick to react with their favorite outfits and cast members adorned outside the pages of history.

The Crown laid bare a poignant essay of history while maintaining fashion accuracy

A lot of effort goes into making a show. However, the necessary depths required to attract curiosity and attaching viewers to the show required meticulous attention. The Crown excelled in it, and the fans’ reactions are a trademark example of it. “Outstanding. Phenomenal work,” a fan put his weight behind. “My favorite TV Show,” testified another. Despite this, not many are ready to bid farewell to the show and it shows. “This makes me cry,” “sad that it’s ending,” “I’m not ready,” All such reactions lay forth the attachment the show managed to harbor within its audience.

Now let us have some space for praises and farewells, shall we?

The upcoming finale episodes of the show will conclude its sixth season as well as one of Netflix’s most well-received series. Meanwhile, there is a lot in store for the remainder of the six episodes. From Princess Diana’s ‘ghost’ appearing in a few scenes to Prince William and Kate Middleton’s early days, the show will touch upon a lot from the current century. All in all, fans as well as Netflix can truly agree that The Crown served one gritty ride down history.
