Lady Diana still
holds a special place in our hearts for her selfless and friendly behavior with
everyone. People have always admired her for her honest and inspiring work. It
has been twenty-six years since we lost such a lovable soul. On 31 August 1997,
she passed away in a tragic yet mysterious car accident.
She is known for her notable works of charity and help to the monarchy. But in the midst of all this, she was also admired for her beauty and fashion. She was one of the sensational fashion icons of the 1980s and 1990s. Here are some of her most loved and iconic fashion looks with a tinge of royalty:
Princess
Diana wore this Black Taffeta dress when she appeared first time in public
after the announcement of her engagement with Prince Charles. She looked
stunning in such a magnificent and revealing piece by Elizabeth and David
Emmanuel.
Later in 1991, She revealed in an interview for her biography that Prince Charles criticized her for wearing this dress because of British Royal protocols. The protocol stated that members of the royal family should wear black only in funerals.
This famous
Klondike dress was worn by Diana in 1983 during her tour to Canada with Prince
Charles. It was a form-fitting gown with a hat which was designed by Linda
Mattock. The dress contributed to Linda’s achievement by winning her a BAFTA
award.
The hat was specifically designed for Diana with silk flowers and pearl sprigs. The look became so popular that dolls were also designed with similar appearance.
This is one
of the most remembered outfits for the red carpet that she carried effortlessly.
She wore this beautiful light blue Catherine Walker gown at the Cannes Film
Festival in 1987.
The dress
truly signified her as an epitome of beauty and grace. Netizens loved her
strapless neckline which made her look boldly beautiful.
This dress
is one of the most remarkable pieces from Diana’s wardrobe which was valued at $
151,000 during the auction for charity. The dress is often referred to as the “Elvis
Dress”. It was also designed by Catherine Walker. She wore this dress on her
official visit to Hong Kong and repeated it at the 1989, British Fashion
Awards.
At present, the gown is safely stored in the Victoria & Albert Museum in London.
When Charles
and Diana got separated officially in 1992, Diana showed her gorgeous bold look
in public by wearing the most popular “Revenge Dress” with a pearl choker. The
dress was designed by Christina Stamboulian who later revealed that Diana was
planning to wear the dress at the 1994 Serpentine Gallery party but changed her
mind later and decided to wear it two years prior.
In 1997, the
dress was bought by a Scottish couple for $ 60,000 during an auction for AIDS
and Cancer charities.
Diana is
still remembered and praised for her amazing sense of style and fashion. Her
looks have always created a charismatic aura by emphasizing her beauty.
