To Mark the Diamond Jubilee a Brand New Figure of the Queen is set to be Unveiled!

To mark The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Madame Tussauds London are creating The Queen’s 23rd wax portrait. Work is well underway and completion of the £150,000 figure is scheduled for mid-May.

The new figure will portray Her Majesty as she appeared in the official Jubilee portrait photograph released in December. She will wear a recreation of the white beaded lace dress with blue silk sash adorned with The Queen’s Garter Badge, topped off by a replica of the diamond and pearl George IV State Diadem.

The current figure of The Queen was created eleven years ago in 2001. She first appeared in 1928 as the two year old Princess Elizabeth and her figure has been regularly updated since.

The new figure will be featured in our special Royal area alongside the Duke of Edinburgh. New figures of her grandson, Prince William and his wife the Duchess of Cambridge, due to be revealed in April, will also be nearby as will Prince Harry, Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall. Visit Madame Tussauds to have a look for yourself.

Diana: glimpses of a modern princess

New display opens at Kensington Palace, 26 March 2012

Why see them?

In 2012, Kensington Palace will be displaying a small but rather special selection of dresses worn by Diana, the Princess of Wales.

Some of these dresses will be on show in the UK for the very first time.

Diana: a fashion icon

Few people have had an impact on fashion in the same way as Princess Diana. As a public figure, the Princess’s dress style was closely scrutinised by the press and the public. As a young princess, her clothes were romantic and demure but as her confidence grew, her style developed into that of an international celebrity: glamorous, elegant, and completely her own.

Famous dresses

The dresses, which will be displayed alongside fashion illustrations and photographs, will reflect some important and memorable moments in Diana’s public life – from the famous black strapless evening gown by Emanuel which has never been on public display before to a stunning sleek black cocktail dress by Gianni Versace which she wore several years later.

They said it…

‘She was like a fairytale princess’

  • Zandra Rhodes – This was the image that permeated the world when Diana, Princess of Wales (1961-1997) first stepped into the public eye.

‘As she matured, she was less concerned about fashion and followed her own sense of style even more.’

  • Victor Edelstein

‘The fashion world takes itself so seriously, but I saw Diana as above all that.’

  • Catherine Walker

An evening dress which created a splash in the newspapers, a shocking pink Catherine Walker gown and a popular demure cocktail dress by Bellville Sassoon Lorcan Mullany, photographs and fashion illustrations will trace Diana’s evolution from young woman to Princess.

The display will showcase the dresses at their best. An elegant and theatrical set by interior designer Finola Inger will create a stylish atmosphere, while bespoke wallpaper by renowned artist Julie Verhoeven will highlight some of the Princess’s key fashion moments.

Diana is part of Historic Royal Palaces’ £12 million major re-presentation project to transform the visitor experience of Kensington Palace in time for Her Majesty The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and the London Olympics.

EDF Energy London Eye

London Eye: Explore the world’s tallest wheel

Take a thrilling journey, soaring high on the astounding London Eye. A London Eye flight is certainly an experience that it is impossible you will forget. Become immersed in some remarkable panoramic viewpoints over an array of the most stunning landmarks in the city. Well and truly, the Eye is the must-see attraction on any London trip. A formidable 135 metres high, it takes 30 minutes for a complete rotation. Passengers in its 32 capsules are proffered with breathtaking 25-mile panoramas over one of the most exquisite cities on the globe.

The London Eye is the highest observational wheel in Europe, and arguably offers the most captivating views. It is positioned exceptionally well, standing high on the South Bank between the Waterloo and Westminster Bridges. Just opposite Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, it bestows spectacular outlooks over central London – and beyond. On a clear day, you can even see Windsor Castle in the distance.

You may be surprised by just how relaxing a ride in a London Eye capsule can be. Visitors are indulged with a smoothly paced half-hour ride in space age capsules which can each hold up to 25 people. An increasingly favoured idea is to visit the Eye when dusk falls; after all, this is when the views over London’s majestic attractions are at their most enchanting. There are other experiences you can make the most of: for an especially romantic experience, savour some fine champagne as you fly. It is also possible to hire out a whole pod for a special occasion.

Some advice, however: it is worth booking tickets in advance. After all, London Eye tickets are not always obtainable on the day when you wish to take the flight, and, even if they are, the queues can be very discouraging. Why not choose a package tour which includes a London Eye flight in addition to a range of other activities? Perhaps take a full day London bus tour and marvel at the charms of London’s attractions by bus. A hop on hop off tour allows you to explore certain attractions in greater depth, if you so wish. Conclude your sightseeing experience with a London Eye flight, for an especially entrancing experience.

Whether you decide simply upon a flight, or combine this with an extensive tour of the rest of London, the London Eye will not fail to captivate you. It is far from difficult to see why it is that the London Eye has won 75 design and tourism awards. Some 10,000 visitors a day stand testament to the enduring appeal of this extraordinary landmark.
