[Luxus Magazine] More than 20 years later, the fascination with Lady Diana continues unabated

Princess of Wales, Duchess of Cornwall and Rothesay, Lady Diana was one of the most famous members, if not THE most famous member, of the royal family. With her tragic fate and unhappy life, this young princess who left us too soon left a lasting impression with her rebellious streak and her inimitable style, which transcends eras and generations. A true fashion icon with a keen sense of style at the cutting edge of trends, she is now considered a legend.

 

Diana, Lady Di, Princess of Wales—these are just some of the names and nicknames given to the former wife of the current King of England. Who would have thought that today, in 2023, some would even describe her as a posthumous Gen Z influencer?

 

Lady Di, who died in 1997, left a lasting impression on everyone. Since her tragic death, numerous films, series, and documentaries have paid tribute to her. Another amusing but also intriguing fact is that she has a community on social media through an Instagram account called Ladydirevengelooks, which now has over 116,000 followers.

With her oversized sweaters, cycling shorts/sneakers, boyish haircuts, bomber jackets, suits, and evening gowns, the Princess of Wales was a true fashionista.

 

Having become a world-famous star, her possessions now sell for a fortune. Consisting of valuable and less valuable items, some of her belongings, sometimes unusual, have become almost works of art, which some enthusiasts are snapping up.

 

“Fashion fades, style remains.”

 

Like many famous people who have passed away, many of Diana’s memorabilia are now being auctioned off, sometimes for staggering sums. Starting with the thank-you letters the princess wrote when she received a gift. Close to her people and very humble, it is rumored that she wrote thousands of thank-you letters after the birth of Prince William. Some of these letters, sold at auction, have fetched over $20,000. Things increase in value over time, and so does paper, apparently!
