Laura Carmichael (as Lady Edith): Wedding dress, and wedding ceremony props Season 3, Episode 3 Ivory satin full-length dress with hip gathers, long chiffon sleeves and an embroidered train, with 'Laura Carmichael' written in the label, together with necklace, silver shoes with ankle strap, and two bouquets of artificial flowers, (Qty) Footnotes: Edith wears the same borrowed tiara as Mary (to make it seem like a family heirloom). It was made by Martin Adams. According to Caroline McCall, 'Lady Edith's dress was inspired by a presentation train owned by a good friend, and the main Milliner for the show Sean Barratt. Having shown me the beautiful train, which had been purchased many years ago, I asked him if it would be possible to borrow it as the beading and embroidery were exquisite. I then designed the dress around the train. We used satin crepe for the dress and picked up elements of the embroidery on the side of the dress'.
