Return of the Revenge Dress

Everyone is copying Princess Diana’s timeless style right now, so let Liberty teach you how to recreate her most iconic outfit of all

By: Maddi John

Finally, The Crown is back, and we know you’re already hooked. The proof? The endless scrolls of royal-related hot takes on Instagram and Tiktok. And there’s one topic dominating the vast majority of the conversation: Princess Diana fashion. As one of the most enduring style icons of our time, it’s hardly a surprise that her style back catalogue is being referenced in outfits the internet over. From her off-duty cycling shorts to her oversized blazers and memorable knits, Diana was nothing short of a style icon. But the most iconic outfit of them all? The Revenge Dress, that iconic little black dress that had everyone talking. Here’s how to recreate the look for yourself…

The Little Black Dress

Liberty Tudor Belle Heritage Suitcase Hamper, was £120 to now £84

The off-the-shoulder centrepiece of the iconic outfit, first you’ll need to secure the Little Black Dress. Timeless as it is classic, it’s a required staple in every wardrobe. With its effortless and contemporary appearance, the Saloni Halle B Mini-Dress, £595 is our chosen pick. Dusted in diamanté detailing and cut to a figure-hugging silhouette, the Signature Halle B mini-dress is every bit as opulent as the original.
