Diana’s Dress…
A piece of fashion history, on view in London.
Princess Diana’s iconic black silk dress by Christina Stambolian, worn on 29 June 1994 at the Serpentine Gallery, is currently on display at Sotheby’s London — until September 24, before heading to New York for auction in December.
I have admired Diana for as long as I can remember. Her way of dressing always felt deeply personal to me — elegant, feminine, effortless, yet never without character.
I have admired Diana since childhood, long before I had words for what it was about her style that stayed with me.
Sotheby’s, 34–35 New Bond Street, London.

A separate editorial on this piece is now on NOIR, my independent editorial on Substack.
I’ve written more about the story behind Diana’s dress, its place in fashion history, and why it has remained so fascinating to me.
