Four iconic dresses worn by Princess Diana by the same designer who created Queen Camilla’s coronation outfit

Finally, Camilla was named Queen Consort of England at the coronation of King Charles III, an unprecedented event where she wowed the cameras with her luxurious gown.

Buckingham Palace indicated that her outfit featured delicate floral garlands, not counting the floral emblems of the United Kingdom’s four nations, which adorned the cuffs and bottom of her skirt, according to Vogue.

But the most surprising thing is that the creator of this textile work is Bruce Oldfield, a famous British designer who forged the glamorous image of Diana of Wales.

Bruce Oldfield’s iconic dresses worn by Princess Diana

The coronation of King Carlos III was not the first time the British couturier had worked with Camilla, but it prompted many to recall the most legendary dresses he designed for the late Lady Di, who helped catapult his career in the 80s.

Among the looks she created that no one could forget is the pale blue dress with a silver belt that Diana wore to the Wentworth Hotel Gala Dinner and Ball on March 28, 1983 in Sydney, Australia.

The evolution from villain to heroine has not achieved full effect: the ghost of Princess Diana will always haunt Camila, the plenipotentiary queen whose husband Carlos III prevented the word “husband”

It was at this time that the “People’s Princess” showed her potential as a fashion icon within the British royal family.

However, many consider the greatest triumph of the Oldfield+Diana combination to be the lamé outfit she wore at the Bruce Oldfield fashion show on March 28, 1985 in London, England.

Soon after, he designed a flattering blue and black dress for Diana that caused a sensation during her visit to Venice on May 4 and 5, 1985.

“Lunch of Betrayal”, this is how Diana de Gales and Camila Parker experienced this unpleasant meeting for Carlos III.

Another memorable dress for the Princess of Wales was the bright red one Bruce Oldfield made for her attendance at the premiere of the movie “Hot Shots!” at the Odeon Leicester Square on 18 November 1991 in London, UK.

Currently, Oldfield only works with custom orders and traditional haute couture orders for royal families and some women in show business, according to El País.
