Now it can be told. After years of research on Coronet Cream I came across this reference:
"Princess Elizabeth attended the coronation of her parents, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth on 11 May 1937. As a Princess of the realm, she wore a cream dress with gold embellishment, a purple robe and a coronet made by the Crown Jewellers." > RCIN 250438 - Dress <
Look at the color of that dress. THAT's "Coronet Cream". Not sure why BMC (there was an A30 in the color) would honor a previous coronation, but the color seems accurate. Watch for my History Channel upcoming special on Healeys and royalty.
