A piece of Princess Diana’s most ’80s (and Instagram-famous) off-duty look is going up for sale.
David Quelch, the former managing director of Burberry, reportedly gave the blazer to his assistant in 1997 upon his retirement—explaining at the time that the piece had been sent in by Diana as she had wanted it to be remade in a different fabric.
Unfortunately, though, it’s not possible to prove for certain it’s the exact jacket the Princess wore. “Upon close examination, the Turnbull & Asser blazer consigned for sale is identical to the one Diana, Princess of Wales, is famously photographed wearing,” Lucy Bishop, an auctioneer at Kerry Taylor Auctions, tells. “However, as the blazer is ready-to-wear, it means more than one would have been made.
While Diana sold many of her formal gowns in a charity auction in New York in 1997, shortly before she died, pieces from her day-to-day wardrobe are still turning up today. “Over the years, we have discovered clothing worn by the Princess in the most unlikely of places,” the auctioneer explains. “I am always amazed by the items people have hiding forgotten in their closets.
