Princess Diana’s timeless fashion choices captured the attention of magazines long before Meghan Markle or Kate Middleton entered the world. Among those iconic images is her wedding gown, an emblem of extravagance featuring a lengthy train and puffy shoulders that epitomized the fashion of its time. Additionally, her veil was no less dramatic, rivaling the train in its remarkable length. However, fate had its own plans on her special day, as the wind gusts unexpectedly interfered, causing various parts of the dress to flutter and dance whimsically.
Nonetheless, Princess Diana maintained her resplendent aura, looking breathtakingly stunning despite the dress’s playful interaction with the elements. The value of this remarkable gown, estimated at nearly half a million, serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Princess Diana and her indelible impact on the world of fashion.
Forgetful
The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, often exudes enthusiasm when donning new wardrobe pieces, to the point where she occasionally overlooks the need to remove the tags. Unbeknownst to her, she unwittingly carried around a few uninvited guests on a particular occasion. As she stepped out confidently in a sleek pencil dress, paired with a stylish brown leather handbag, an unexpected detail caught the attention of keen observers.
Upon closer inspection, the bottom of the handbag revealed the presence of those little plastic protectors typically attached to prevent scuffing prior to sale. It seems that Meghan either forgot to remove them or perhaps was unaware of their purpose altogether. Regardless, this minor oversight only serves to highlight her relatability as a human being, reminding us that even royals can occasionally overlook the finer details of fashion etiquettes.
About Face
Upon initial observation, it may appear that Kate effortlessly carries off the vibrant purple button-down, and indeed she does, albeit with a slight twist from the original design intent. Later on, to the surprise of both Kate and the rest of us, it came to light that the buttons were actually meant to be positioned at the back, with the bow adorning the front. This unexpected revelation emphasizes that even the fashion-forward Duchess can experience wardrobe mishaps.
However, regardless of the mix-up, Kate flawlessly rocked the ensemble until she discovered the proper way to wear it and made the necessary adjustment. Remarkably, the reversed arrangement with the bow in front still exuded a charming and stylish aura, proving that Kate's inherent grace and charisma can make any outfit shine, regardless of minor design nuances.
Morning Workout
This picture is the perfect example of how stylish Princess Di was and how true she was to herself regardless of what people thought. In this photo, she is seen leaving her health club after a morning workout. Now, we are sure she wasn't expecting a strong wind to accompany her down the road, blow her coat up and reveal her workout clothes (and her gorgeous legs).
Princess Di was beloved for many things, mainly being the “People’s Princess,” but also for being a fashion icon. So, it’s only fitting that she would just carry on walking and pretend nothing has happened, (and also forget that her private secretary resigned one day before this photo was taken).
Stairway to Heaven
Poor Kate has been on this list more than almost everyone else – and for things that aren’t her fault, like the wind. She’s been caught in a windy situation more than a few times, like here, when she and the rest of the family were getting off a plane in New Zealand in 2014.
She was able to hold it down so that she didn’t show the cameras too much, but you would also think at this point that she would have hired a stylist to figure out how to style her in things that don’t leave her flashing the entire world in a gust of wind.
