THE LIFE
Picture
Wallis Warfield on her wedding with Earl Winfield Spencer
She had designed her own gown of white penne velvet (an unusual fabric for wedding at the time) made with a court train and a pointed bodice elaborately embroidered with pearls. The skirt tumbled over with a petticoat of old family lace and her veil of tulle was edged with lace arranged coronet fashion with sprays of orange blossom. She carried a bouquet of white orchids and lilies of the valley.

THE MANNER AND MOVEMENT
¨I was struck by the grace of her carriage, and the dignity of her movements...from the first, I looked upon her as the most independent woman I have ever met. And presently, the hope formed, that one day I might be able to share my life with her......¨            - King Edward VIII aka Duke of Windsor
