Meghan Markle may buy Princess Diana's 'revenge dress'

Meghan Markle, who's in the UK with her husband Prince Harry and their children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, has received a big news about her late-mother-in-law's iconic 'reveange dress'.

Undoubtedly, some dresses transcend fashion because of the women who wear them. Princess Diana’s dress from that historic night remains one of them, a moment forever etched in history.

Worn by Prince Harry and Prince William's mother to an event at London’s Serpentine Gallery in June 1994, her little black dress didn’t merely set a trend, but it inspired a whole genre.

The dress, created by Christina Stambolian for Diana, has become forever lodged in the public memory.

Almost three decades after its original appearance, the most famous ‘LBD’ (little black dress) in history is set to make another stir.

In December, Sotheby’s New York will offer fans the chance to own the storied garment, which will be sold at auction for the first time in nearly three decades.

There is speculation that it may adorn the Duchess of Sussex's wardrobe as she woudn't hesitate to buy the iconic attire that belonged to one of her favourite royals.

Harry's wife often channels the Princess's iconic style. She even feels proud mirroring her famous formula of pairing casual basics.

As reported by Daily Mail, its daring cut was interpreted as a public rebuke to Charles, who had made shocking confession on ITV shortly before Diana made her appearance at the Serpentine.

The dress seemed designed to show her husband just what he was missing. It was worn with high heels, red lipstick and a pearl choker, proving that elegance is the ultimate revenge.

Diana only wore the dress once, before selling it at a 1997 charity auction of 79 dresses to benefit cancer and Aids charities. It has remained in the hands of its current owner ever since.

Parts of the proceeds from the Sotheby’s sale this December will also have a charitable element, benefiting NHS Lothian Charity on behalf of the Royal Hospital of Edinburgh.

The dress is arguably the most infamous example of Diana’s clever use of fashion to manage her image and semaphore her feelings.

According to her stylist, Anna Harvey, Diana decided to wear the dress at the eleventh hour, having owned it for three years but previously considered it too daring to wear in public.

Harvey once said that Diana “wanted to look like a million dollars”.
