Meghan Markle May Buy Princess Diana's Iconic 'Revenge Dress'

Meghan Markle, who is in the UK with her husband Prince Harry and their children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, has received significant news regarding her late mother-in-law's iconic 'revenge dress'. Some garments transcend fashion entirely because of the women who wear them, and Princess Diana's dress from that historic night remains a defining moment etched forever in history.

Worn by the mother of Prince Harry and Prince William to an event at London's Serpentine Gallery in June 1994, the little black dress did not merely set a trend; it inspired an entire cultural genre. Created by designer Christina Stambolian, the dress has remained firmly lodged in public memory. Nearly three decades after its original debut, the most famous little black dress (LBD) in history is once again generating massive interest.

In December, Sotheby's New York will offer fans and collectors the chance to own the storied garment, which is heading to auction for the first time in nearly thirty years. Speculation is mounting that the attire might soon adorn the wardrobe of the Duchess of Sussex, given her penchant for acquiring pieces tied to one of her most admired royals. Prince Harry's wife frequently channels Princess Diana's signature style through matching silhouettes, sentimental jewelry, and off-duty staples.

She also takes pride in mirroring the late princess's famous formula of pairing casual basics - such as denim, white button-downs, and crewnecks - with sharp blazers and baseball caps. According to the Daily Mail, the dress's daring cut was widely interpreted as a public rebuke to King Charles, who had made a shocking television confession shortly before Diana's arrival at the Serpentine Gallery. Paired with high heels, red lipstick, and a pearl choker, the ensemble proved that elegance remains the ultimate response. Diana wore the dress only once before selling it at a 1997 charity auction comprising 79 dresses to benefit cancer and AIDS charities. A portion of the proceeds from the upcoming Sotheby's sale in December will also serve a charitable purpose, benefiting NHS Lothian Charity on behalf of the Royal Hospital of Edinburgh.
