This embroidered, fur-lined dressing gown has been used in at least five instances. It was most likely created for Anne Marie Duff as Elizabeth I in the 2005 BBC mini-series The Virgin Queen. It appeared in a deleted scene of Stardust in 2007 on Claire Danes as Yvaine. It was used again in Showtime’s The Tudors on Natalie Dormer as Anne Boleyn in the 2008 second season. In 2013 it was seen in the BBC mini-series The White Queen, where Rebecca Ferguson wore it as Elizabeth Woodville. Most recently, the robe was worn as a coat by Alicia Agneson as Princess Katia in a 2019 episode of Vikings.

"Beyond all this, and quite aside from the possibility that early in life the two had formed a bond of which we have been left no record, Elizabeth had reason to regard Dudley as a kindred spirit. Although the Duke of Northumberland died professing himself a Catholic, all his offspring embraced evangelical Protestantism. The male Dudleys who had not been executed were still being held in the Tower when Wyatt’s Rebellion led to Elizabeth’s confinement there. The experience, which for Elizabeth and Robert alike included the very real possibility of execution, gave them a profoundly memorable experience in common. Both were ultimately saved by the intercession of Philip after his arrival from Spain, Elizabeth as a safeguard against Mary Stuart, Dudley and his brothers because of their stature among England’s warrior elite and Philip’s wish for influential friends. Both remained deep in the political wilderness, however, as long as Queen Mary remained alive. The properties bestowed on her in her father’s will had made Elizabeth rich, and during Mary’s reign she was an inherently important personage as heir presumptive, but her life was quiet except for those moments of near-terror occasioned by official suspicion that she was involved in plots against the queen. Dudley, his conviction for treason set aside thanks to Philip’s intervention, settled into the peaceful existence of a country gentleman." - The Tudors: The Complete Story of England’s Most Notorious Dynasty by G.J. Meyer

"Elizabeth’s relationship with Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, was perhaps the most important in her life. The savage possessiveness with which she wrote of him - ‘a creature of our own’, as she described him, with all the imperiousness of the royal ‘we’ - in no way diminished his importance in her eyes. For a woman so short of surviving blood relations, he was the nearest thing she had to family."
— Sarah Gristwood, Elizabeth and Leicester: The Truth about the Virgin Queen and the Man She Loved.

This lovely Red dress is seen on The Virgin Queen (2005) Anne Marie Duff as Queen Elizabeth I and worn on Natalie Dormer as Anne Boleyn from The Tudors (2007) and worn on Joss Stone as Anne of Cleves from The Tudors (2010) seen again on a doll dummy from Seventh Son (2014).

the fact that Elizabeth I is titled "The Virgin Queen" implies that someone- possibly Mary I, possibly Lady Jane Grey, possibly Mary Queen of Scots- is "The Chad Queen."

Modern Werewolf!Robert Dudley
Tumblr media
TH Masterlist
Note: I haven’t seen The Virgin Queen (2005) and therefore have taken great creative liberty concerning the mini series and actual history. Also, the gif above kickstarted the idea and then I got carried away… again.😅😹
- Robert is endlessly curious about humans. He can often be found observing them from between the trees of the family mansion.
- Btw, the grand house is merely a façade, serving only to lend credit to the respectability and longevity of the family. They are ancient, thoroughly well-bred toffs. Nevertheless, they prefer the forest and their Wolf forms over human civilization.
- However, it seems Rob is the one to break that cycle of intimidating distance between the pack and the people living in the outer boroughs of London.
- He can be frequently found wandering around, popping in and out of cafés and bakeries or visiting markets.
- He’s somewhat of a foodie, but a terrible cook and baker. Honestly, can you blame him? He’s been raised with a silver spoon (and on raw meat).
- Nevertheless, he’s picked up baking because of you. Robert was over the moon with your apple pie and cinnamon tea, which he chose the autumn afternoon he walked into the bakery you had recently started working at.
- When you said you’d made the pie fresh that morning he instinctively knew he’d found his teacher. So after using his natural charm (and maybe some manipulation of his scent), he talked you into teaching him.
- By the gods, he’s like a pup when you teach him. Partially because it means you let him into your flat.
- Sometimes you catch him looking around with a dreamy gaze, gone with the fairies until you pull him out of his reverie.
- He always dodges the question what it is he’s thinking of. He also never explains himself when he drops by with mud smears on his face or twigs in his hair.
- Yet, somewhere deep down you know why. After all, you’ve heard the stories and rumours about the Dudley family.
- Robert always wants your opinion on his baked goods. He’ll suddenly show up in front of you while you’re working yet politely ask if you could spare him a minute.
- He loves visiting Borough Market with you and has managed to convince you to go at least once a week.
- And it’s just as well because if you go more often, you’ll certainly feel it in your pocket. Supporting local businesses and artisans is never wrong, but it sure gets pricey.
- Although, here’s where the Dudley riches come in because he pays pretty much for everything.
- What can I say? He’s a foodie and likes sharing food.
- Now, Wolves naturally tend to eat more than humans. Robert, though, takes it to a whole new level on the days before the new moon. He’ll be insatiable, but not only in the way food can cure.😏😉
- (He especially loves fucking after he’s changed back, his senses still heightened and wolf brain still turned on)
- Loves tea time with you. There’s always some new tea and/or treat to go with it he’s discovered.
- It’s honestly adorable how enthusiastic he gets over the simplest things. Believe me, you’ve never seen a man delighted enough to skip around the room like a bouncy ball because of a scone made with the blueberries from his territory.
- And he can’t believe his luck when you tell him about your dream of opening a business there because the man has the funds. All he asks in return is that you run it together.
- His family gives him side eyes because Wolves have no need to bake or put a lot of effort into cooking. They hunt.
- His father is against his growing affection for you, a human. An alpha needs a she-wolf, not a human.
- So Robert runs away, begging you to take him in.
- Happy chappy gentleman with wolfish quirks.
- Loves playfully hunting you and pouncing on you to pin you to the ground.
- More often than not leads to sweet lovemaking out in the open.
- Loves bathing in the nearby lake and swimming with you.
- That’s how you first met. You stumbled across him as he was bathing himself.
- Robert loves to rest his head in your lap, both as a wolf and as a man. However, he tends to do it more as a wolf because it means you’ll run your hands through his fur and he loves that.
- Though simply caressing his hair is enough to make him purr and send him straight into a nap.
- Wishes he was born human rather than as a Wolf, hating his very nature and the expectations his pack has for him.
- “What should it matter this is what makes me happy? Why should this be beneath me? Why shouldn’t I put you first, love you with my whole heart? Why would it be wrong for a Wolf to participate in society, to try and have a normal human-like life? I want to show you at my most vulnerable because I trust you so why would that be wrong?”
- All these “why”’s without an answer he’s left to wonder again and again since Rob met you.
- But the real question is: Why can’t and shouldn’t he be with you?
- Because that’s all he wants.
- To run a small bakery together.
- To be a man.
- Natural.
- Normal.
- And not the next Wolf King.
