Elizabeth Debicki stepped out in West Hollywood channelling Princess Diana in a crisp Oxford shirt and dark trousers to celebrate her Emmy nomination for The Crown
Although the sixth and final installment of Netflix’s ‘The Crown’ doesn’t quite capture the show’s golden era, it is a welcome reprieve from personal melodramatic plots a return to the political micro-scandals that first made the show’s heyday so interesting writes Louis Staples.
In the Anglo-Saxon world, Napoleon Bonaparte tends to be depicted as a chippy Mediterranean upstart who terrorised Europe for 20 years before getting his comeuppance at Waterloo. In France, he’s a divisive but historically omnipresent figure, and even his biggest critics there will readily admit his genius for organisation and statecraft. No Napoleon, no modern France as we know it, and for many of his countrymen, the little corporal encapsulates their nation’s strengths and weaknesses.
The first episodes of “The Crown” swansong show off three of Diana’s iconic swimwear looks, each offering a glimpse at her life, her spirit, and her relationship to press and fame.
