Princess Diana’s relationship with Valentino Garavani was more than just a designer-client connection; she often viewed him as a close friend, even holidaying on his private yacht during the 1990s. One of her most significant appearances in his work was the burgundy velvet and lace dress, which she wore in November 1992, to a performance of Paul McCartney’s.


Valentino also designed this red gown Diana wore for a photo shoot.
