Diana: People's Princess, Style Icon (AGENCIES) (AGENCIES) Despite never going long, Diana managed to experiment with her hairstyles going from a heavy fringe to slicked back sophisticate and everything in between. (AGENCIES) Her skirt suits went from crisp and lean to traditional peplum jackets. Power dressing, Princess-style. With a hat, of course. (AGENCIES) Diana showed us how to party like a princess in couture cocktail dresses from Versace and Christian Lacroix. Her standout dress was an enviable LBD from Christina Stambolian. (AGENCIES) Serene and gorgeous: Princess Di wore white best. She looked all that was heavenly and pure.(AGENCIES) Princess Diana shows us why she was one of the most photographed women in the world. (AGENCIES) Red Alert: There was no shade of red that Diana could not, and did not, wear. She made red look easy, from scarlet siren to pretty in pink, with little or no effort. (AGENCIES) Summer was a time for Diana to bring out her collection of print and colour. She kept things light hearted with animal print, polka dots and airy fabrics. (AGENCIES) Diana's favoured coat length was below the knee, topped with a pillbox hat, but she could also carry off a shorter length with style. (AGENCIES) Diana's favourite colour was red, but nobody could do blue like she did. Each dress was a red-carpet-worthy knockout and we especially like the timeless quality of the single shoulder dress on the left. That's the dress Kate Middleton will have to beat.

(AGENCIES) With her tall, rangy figure Diana was a designer's dream. As the ultimate clotheshorse, it was always she who wore the dress, never the dress that wore her. (AGENCIES) For her most formal appearances, Princess Diana kept it traditional and discreet. Even so, no other British Royal really looked the way she did.(AGENCIES) Perhaps her most famous dresses were her ballgowns. The princessy, single shouldered blue taffeta dress on the left was trumped only by the midnight blue velvet she wore to the White House reception with President Reagan, right – a dress made for dancing with John Travolta.
