It was the dress in which Princess Diana captivated America – and John Travolta.
And the midnight-blue velvet evening gown will be
captivating a new owner, whose husband bought it for her as a surprise. He
paid £240,000 for the off-the-shoulder velvet Victor Edelstein dress,
which was among ten of the princess’s dresses auctioned for
almost £900,000.Bidders
from Asia, the US, Europe and Australia competed at a London auction
house to buy what were described as a ‘slice of history’.The stunning off-the-shoulder, midnight blue
velvet gown, was worn by Diana as she was
spun around the White House dance floor by Travolta during a visit to
the U.S. in 1985. I wonder what it would feel like receiving a dress previously worn by Diana. See more photos of other dresses at the auction...
