Author: Web Desk

PARIS: Today would have been Princess Diana’s 55th birthday.

The beloved “people’s princess,” who died when she was only 36, was—and remains—one of the 20th century’s most intriguing public figures. She wooed the world with her graceful elegance, effortless poise, charitable heart and hundred-watt smile.

Nineteen years after her shocking death, her legacy burns bright, living on through her sons Prince William and Prince Harry, as well as through William and Kate Middleton’s children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

Diana redefined what it meant to be a royal at the time. Her humanitarian efforts, relatable nature and fearless fashion choices made her an icon—and we can see her trailblazing efforts in the modernized version of public life practiced by Will and Kate.

And while her legacy is a rich one, Diana remains inextricably linked to fashion. She not only put certain designers on the map—such as Welsh-born David Emanuel, who made her wedding dress – she influenced trends worldwide.

So to celebrate her birthday and honor her life, let’s remember some of her most iconic fashion moments.
