The event and the gown ...
President Mitterrand hosted a banquet at theÉlyséePalacefor the Prince and Princess of Wales during their November1988 trip to France, and the Princess picked a VictorEdelstein design for the occasion. The embroidery on thebodice and long-sleeved bolero jacket was both the star ofthe show and its specific connection to France: the floraldesign of simulated pearls and white bugle beads outlinedin silver and gold was hand embroidered byHurel, thefamed French couture embroidery house. The oysterduchesse satin dress also featured a skirt with a tuckedbustle effect at the back.The dress was said to have been one of Diana's favorites.It was also one of the most expensive pieces in her formalwardrobe, reportedly costing around £55,000 at the time.She wore it again for an event in 1989. Originally pairedwith diamond and pearl earrings she received as a weddinggift; she added the Cambridge Lover’s Knot Tiarafor thisportrait. Though Diana found it difficult to part with a
favorite, the dress was auctioned for charity with othersfrom her collection at Christie's in 1997. It sold for $90,500.
