Five Female Fashion Icons of their Day with Olivier Courteaux
April 13 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm EDT
Princess Diana
From the moment she got engaged to Prince Charles, Diana captured our hearts. The somewhat dowdy young aristocrat quickly learned how to create her own style and, more importantly, use fashion as an extension of her warm and charismatic personality. As a member of the royal family, she was not afraid to bring a touch of originality to her outfits, while displaying a perfect sense of style and taste. Following her divorce, she, more than ever, used fashion to make statements and to show the world she was free to pursue her own dreams. Who can forget her famous “revenge dress”, the black plunging Christina Stambolian dress, which remains her most iconic look?
