the Blue Chanel Suit








Many agree that this is Diana at her best. The Karl Lagerfield design for the fashion house Chanel.
From their Spring/Summer line in 1997. This suit was bought off the peg. Diana wore it twice. On March 9, 1997 to Prince Williams conformation and in April that same year to a British Lung Foundation launch of a rose named after her.
The suit is in pale blue boucle',fringed lapels, inset pocket detailing and an above the knee skirt. For the conformation Diana wore a matching pillbox hat. Teamed with a biege handbag and Chanel heels. The look was polished and classic.
The suite today is part of the "Diana, A elebration" exhibit.
