A blouse worn by Diana, the Princess of Wales, for her engagement portrait is up for auction. <\/p>\n

Worn by the royal<\/strong> for her portrait in 1981, the pink crepe blouse has a ruff-like collar and loose pleats to the front.<\/p>\n

Julien’s Auctions has put Diana’s<\/strong> garment up for auction and estimated its value to be between $80,000 (\u00a363,490) and $100,000 (\u00a379,360).<\/p>\n

In 2019, the blouse was on display at Kensington Palace as part of the exhibition Diana: Her Fashion Story.<\/p>\n

It was created by David and Elizabeth Emanuel – who later went on to design Diana’s wedding gown for her marriage to King Charles<\/strong>, the then-Prince of Wales – and was captured by royal photographer Lord Snowdon.<\/p>\n

The National Portrait Gallery said the picture, published in Vogue magazine, coincided with the official announcement of the engagement of Charles and Diana in February 42 years ago.<\/p>\n

Julien’s Auctions and TCM Present: Hollywood Legends will be held in Beverly Hills, California, and online from 14 to 17 December.<\/p>\n

An evening dress, also worn by Diana, will be available at the same auction.<\/p>\n

Designed by Moroccan-born fashion designer Jacques Azagury, it was worn in Florence, Italy, in April 1985 and is estimated to be worth between $100,000 and $200,000 (\u00a3158,720).<\/p>\n

It comes after the royal’s famous black sheep jumper fetched a record-breaking $1.1m<\/strong> (\u00a3904,495) in September.<\/p>\n

The auctioneer Sotheby’s said bidding for the sweater jumped from $190,000 (\u00a3150,754) to its final price after a 15-minute bidding battle.<\/p>\n

it was originally offered with an estimate of between $50,000 to $80,000.<\/p>\n

It was discovered in an attic in March by designer Joanna Osborne, and features a whimsical black sheep among white ones.<\/p>\n

It is also among the initial designs by Osborne and Sally Muir for Warm and Wonderful knitwear, which was founded in 1979.<\/p>\n

The garment broke the record set by Diana’s Victor Edelstein aubergine evening gown, which sold for $604,800 in January.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n[ad_2]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
