Julien’s Auctions presented Princess Diana’s<\/a> Style & A Royal Collection<\/em>, a major sale featuring 327 lots that honored the lasting elegance, compassion, and influence of Diana, Princess of Wales. More than a fashion icon, Diana used clothing to express herself and connect with people. Her style choices were never just about appearance; they often carried deep meaning, reflecting her values, emotions, and role as a modern royal. This collection gave bidders a rare chance to see the personal side of Diana through the clothes and accessories she wore during important public and private moments.<\/p>\n

A peach leather set worn at London’s\"peach<\/a>\u00a0Langham Hotel in 1991 sold for $45,500, and a magenta set from a Canadian visit brought in $52,000, well above expectations. A peach straw hat by John Boyd, worn during Diana’s honeymoon send-off in 1981 and again in 1983, sold for $26,000, just above the low end of its $20,000\u201340,000 estimate.<\/p>\n

One of the most memorable pieces in the auction was the cream silk “Falcon” gown by Catherine Walker<\/a>, created for Diana’s\"White<\/a> 1986 tour of Saudi Arabia.
