Remnants of a dress belonging to Queen Elizabeth I may have been found in an altar cloth in Herefordshire. The fabric at St Faith’s Church in Bacton has been identified by experts as a piece of a 16th Century dress. An examination by Historic Royal Palaces curators has strengthened a theory it formed part of a court dress. The Queen is depicted in the Rainbow Portrait wearing a similar fabric, but no documentary evidence has been found to suggest the dress was worn by her. Historians believe the monarch could have gifted the garment to one of her servants, Blanche Parry.https://www.premier.org.uk/News/UK/Church-altar-cloth-may-be-part-of-Queen-Elizabeth-I-dress
