Princess Diana’s style
Princess Diana’s fashion has always made a lot of noise. From the beginning of her joining the Royal Family her style choices were scrutinized and analyzed.

And they are so much so that this week, fashion designer Jacquemus, paid tribute to her in his latest fashion show.
While the outfit itself, does not scream Princess Diana it actually refers to her more than you might think. First, the jewellery clearly resembles the one she wore with her 'revenge dress.'
Secondly, in his Vogue interview, Jacquemus himself talks about the 'big rounded sleeves' and 'the 80s shapes of puffy and ruched silhouettes' which can remind you of Princess Diana's wedding dress.
