Princess Diana’s Timeless Fashion Statement Breaks Records Decades Later

Princess Diana, the epitome of grace and style, continues to leave an indelible mark on the fashion world nearly four decades after captivating audiences with her iconic choices. Recently, a Jacques Azagury black, ballerina-length velvet evening dress worn by the late Princess of Wales in the ’80s commanded a staggering $1,148,080 (approximately £900,000) at auction, surpassing its original retail price by an impressive factor of 11.

This particular dress holds historical significance, having been worn by Lady Di during a royal tour in Florence, Italy, alongside then-Prince Charles in 1985. The timeless piece made a second appearance at a Vancouver Symphony Orchestra performance in 1986.

Hosted by Julien’s Auctions in Hollywood, the auction witnessed spirited bidding for the Jacques Azagury creation. Crafted with fabric chosen by renowned textile merchant Jakob Schlaepfer, the dress featured meticulously embroidered metallic stars, showcasing the intricate work of the design team, as reported by BBC.

Princess Diana’s influence on the world of fashion is further underscored by the sale of another iconic piece at the TCM Present: Hollywood Legends auction. The pink crepe blouse worn by the late royal during her engagement announcement in 1981 garnered an impressive $381,000 (£300,990), nearly quadrupling its initial estimate of $80,000 (£63,000).

Designed by the Moroccan-British fashion designer Jacques Azagury, many of Diana’s ensembles continue to hold cultural and historical significance. The recent auction results serve as a poignant reminder of Princess Diana’s enduring impact on fashion, with her timeless wardrobe continuing to captivate enthusiasts and contribute to the rich tapestry of sartorial history.
