This beautifully embroidered gown was first spotted on an extra in the 1969 film Anne of the Thousand Days. It’s possible that it originated with this film, but it is also plausible that the costume came from an earlier production. 
The Carry On films are well known to have reused many costumes from earlier productions, and so it is no surprise that this piece was seen again in 1971 by Joan Sims as Queen Marie in Carry on Henry.
It’s possible that the costume was used further after 1971, as auction photos of the piece show an added ribbon around the neckline, as well as a different skirt. 
In 2007, this dress was auctioned off by Bonhams in the auction entitled The Angels Star Collection of Film & TV Costumes, where the piece was described as follows:
A Tudor style Dress and matching cape, both being of heavily embroidered patterned fabric, dress with boned bustier, edged with applied gold braid, sleeves revealing heavily embroidered lining and laced back, labeled “Angels & Bermans The Costumiers to the Entertainment Industry.”
 The piece ultimately sold for $1050.

If I had a nickel for every actor who appeared in Ealing Studio comedies and Carry On films as well as the Granada Holmes and Agatha Christie's Miss Marple series I would have a pile of nickels.

Happy Xmas to all who celebrate. I've been MIA for what feels like a long time, finishing my mum's Xmas present:

Feels weird to work on something that isn't Good Omens. I miss our boys. But also I have hand cramp from the 5x pencil drawings.
These are some of the refs for them:

If you haven't seen any of the Carry On films, watch some over the holidays. They're just so easy to watch 🙂
Hope wherever you are, you're happy and enjoy the winter holidays
