Princess Diana's Iconic Fashion To Be Featured In Royal Exhibit At Kensington Palace

Through her love of art and sophisticated style, Princess Dianna left her mark in the British fashion scene. Even after her death, her legacy lives on and can even be seen on how Duchess Kate Middleton would get pointers from her flair.

Coinciding with Queen Elizabeth II's 90th birthday later this spring, royal fans can relive the late Princess' iconic looks on display at the Kensington Palace this week for the Fashion Rules Restyled exhibition.

The collection boasts of the elegant style of three most popular royals of all time - the late Princess Diana and Princess Margaret and of course, Queen Elizabeth II.

Vogue UK reported that the displays will be confined across five different rooms, "From the high-impact dressing that befits glamorous events and the impact that can be made by the perfect accessory (including a scarf hand-painted by Christian Dior himself for Princess Margaret), to the use of block color to ensure the royal in question is visible in the crowd, the royal fashion rules are depicted room by room."

Princess Diana's part of the exhibit will showcase wardrobes that exude her trendsetting prowess translated by two of her favorite designers, Bruce Oldfield and Catherine Walker. It will also feature her popular ensembles: the black, velvet Balmoral gown, and the green, double-breasted dress that was immortalized by the artful eye of Mario Testino's photographs.

Recently, Historic Royal Palaces curator Libby Thompson issued a statement that says: "Fashion Rules has proved popular with our visitors, and we're delighted to be able to expand on this theme to celebrate the style evolution of three iconic modern royal women." She also added, "The new display will delve even deeper into the royal wardrobe, revealing some real surprises that I hope will challenge the way we think of royal style."

The exhibit will officially open to the public on Feb. 11.
