Was Queen Elizabeth the first targeted with a poisoned dress only some lady in waiting tried it on first?

That sounds incredibly familiar - maybe it was the plot in an alt. hist. book somewhere? I'll poke around in my books...

I remember it well also, and did a little digging. The movie Elizabeth starring Cate Blanchett includes a scene where Knollys dies from a poisoned dress, however this appears to have been artistic license and not based on an actual event pertinent to the story.
