Elizabeth Handley-Seymour
- ... that Elizabeth Handley-Seymour created Queen Elizabeth's 1937 Coronation dress (illustrated) and her 1923 wedding dress?

- Hmm. Maybe:
- ALT3:... that Elizabeth Handley-Seymour created Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother's 1937 Coronation dress (illustrated) and her 1923 wedding dress?
