I love her flawless, lady-like & modest style! Amazing how fashionable she was despite that modesty and how she influenced our style / trends today: polka dots in 1987, colour-blocking in 1989 or the mid-skirt-length in 1992. Kate Middleton obviously copied Diana`s engagement style (and it`s ok).

I also love how her style developed from girly to elegant woman when she was over 30. Truly graceful!



When you remember the queen of hearts, what comes to your mind first? How do you like her style
