Is it just me or does that amuse You?
The Duchess was theatre.&

imagine the Duchess dressing for Alex de Rede's Bal Oriental, 1969.
Jacqueline de Ribes recalled
'I worked on my costume for three months, I cut up three couture dresses and a sable coat. She was no good with fancy dress. She had no sense of theatre.'
