Princess Diana comparisons

Showing off her legs may be deemed as a risque move, but her late mother-in-law was actually the pioneer of pins.

Princess Diana was celebrated for her love of fashion, and the fact that she adored taking risks.

In 1996, during a Christmas themed charity event for CentrePoint, the People’s Princess actually donned a very similar outfit – which at the time became a trailblazer, inspiring many to don the same look.
