If you think you’re excited for new episodes of The Crown, put yourself in Emma Corrin’s shoes. Sunday’s premiere of the Netflix hit marks the 24-year-old actress’s debut on the series as she takes on the role of a lifetime. As Lady Diana Spencer, Corrin brilliantly portrays the late royal’s transformation from unassuming kindergarten teacher to the people’s princess during her tumultuous first years as a royal family member. Accurately capturing the allure of one of the world’s most famous women is no small feat. Still, Corrin holds her own in a tony ensemble that includes Oscar-winner Olivia Colman and Emmy-winner Gillian Anderson. Equal parts shy, daring, and determined, Corrin’s Diana is sure to be amongst the big talking points of the new season and 2020’s awards season.
Given the hotly anticipated nature of the show, a star-studded premiere was in order. Safety constraints prevented an IRL party, so the cast and crew went digital. Their at-home celebrations (complete with mini-red carpets for the actors) were a charming way to honor the hard work that goes into the series. Corrin chose to immortalize the moment with help from photographer Greg Williams and her stylist, Harry Lambert. Rather than pull straight from the runway, she and Lambert collaborated with Miu Miu on a custom look featuring puff-sleeved tunic and matching leggings. The head to toe tartan was appropriately whimsical and, dare we say it, fit for a princess.
The socially-distanced nature of the premiere didn’t put a damper on Corrin’s mood. Eager for audiences to take in the drama’s latest entry and the team’s talents, she found sharing their work with the world felt like a fairytale. “If you want to find me in the upcoming few days, I’ll be somewhere in north London pinching myself until this all feels real,” she shared via email. “I am too excited for you all to see what we have created—thanks for watching and supporting!”
