Diana's Daywear

The other side of the Fashion Room showcases Princess Diana's day wear outfits:-
The left hand side of the display.
A first look - Catherine Walker coat dresses.

Pretty in pink CW!

Mother and Sons CW - cute!

Cue the couture -
pink Versace, blue Chanel

Chanel boucle suit - the white edge
is yellowing a bit now with age :-(

White Tomaz Starzewski(sp?)

More Catherine Walker signature looks.

Another long view 

Practical wear for the heat -
a CW outfit worn in Egypt
and the landmines outfit.

Diana's Louis Vuitton luggage - sadly her 
Lady Dior handbag was not on show this year :-(

    1. Thanks Patricia - yes they are all memorable outfits. Althorp told me years ago that Diana gave away a lot of her day clothes so this is just about all they have to display. Like you say the blue trio for Easter at Windsor was lovely! SA:-)

  2. SO lovely to see her outfits again - great choices as they still look great today!

    Where's the Dior handbag??? I hope it's not going to show up on DoC's arm!

    1. Hi PP - I don't think you need worry the bag will be part of the "Estate" and I can't see DOC ever wearing it not her style. The displays are rotated so it will be resting I reckon! SAx
