Ms Haydon’s new wardrobe includes a range of Australian designed Carla Zampatti suits and Karen Gee dresses that retail for $2100 for a custom made item.
As the designer Karen Gee’s Instagram account now confirms, it was a custom dress that Jodie Haydon wore to Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in London.
“Thank you again for giving me the privilege of wearing an Australian made and designed piece like this for such an important occasion. I felt so proud to be wearing it,’’ Ms Haydon wrote in reply.
