Diana's Evening Gowns

Here are some photos of Diana's fabulous evening wear on show at Althorp - sorry I can't recall all the designers at this moment in time but will try to update when I get them all:-
The Evening Wear Section

Blue Sassoon, White Emanuel

Red Lacroix for a trip to France - mais oui!

Catherine Walker cocktail dress and
ice blue evening gown.

The intricate detail of both outfits .

Burgundy Valentino and gold sequinned Walker

3 publicly unworn dresses - the turquoise, 
white and purple frilly number (love it!).  
The purple 2nd left was worn in Chicago.

The turquoise dress carries Egypt's
highest order for humanitarian work and was
presented to Diana on her visit to that country.

The fabulous Azagury dresses!
The black on the left worn on Diana's last birthday
The "Swan Lake" dress you can see Diana
wearing it to a performance of Swan Lake
by English National Ballet, of whom
she was Patron, in the photo behind.

Just fabulous!
