It’s no secret that Princess Diana was a major style icon—and remains one to this day. Her style influenced onlookers in the 1980s and 1990s, and continues to be an inspiration to fashionistas long after her tragic death. I mean, it’s 2019, and I’m out here perusing all the best Princess Diana outfits. If that isn’t major influence, I don’t know what is. Whether you’re looking for some outfit inspiration—even Kate Middleton has recreated an outfit or two—a Halloween costume (Yes, fall is coming.) or simply just love to admire Princess Diana’s beauty, the outfits below are sure to bring you some joy.
From suiting that definitely inspired Hillary Clinton (Anyone have proof of this? I’m very interested to see if Hillary has ever admitted to being influenced by the iconic looks of Princess Diana.) to casual outfits in all their ’80s glory, Princess Diana has no shortage of style inspiration. Whether the Princess of Wales was heading to a speaking engagement, meeting foreign leaders or heading to the gym, she always looked incredible. I’ve rounded up 29 of her absolute best ensembles, so you can really get a full glimpse of the sartorial genius that was Princess Diana.
