The Crown season 4 gave us a hefty screen time of Princess Diana and her timeless beauty looks.
The Princess of Wales was known for her many daring and effortless sartorial choices, and she had the looks to boot! As we binge the latest season of the highly addictive and gossipy ‘The Crown’, we look back at what made the iconic look of the “People’s Princess”, played by rising star Emma Corin, so unforgettable.
It Was Modern
The 1980s was the era of punk, grunge and protests, loudly expressed through music and fashion and Princess Diana’s hair was a revolution in itself. Her notable shaggy cut stood out among the female royals whose hairstyles were historically braided and voluminous with feminine curls. The princess’ layered and almost boyish hair-do was refreshing and it became her signature style thus, making her the It girl of her time.
It Was Timeless
The new season of ‘The Crown’ further proves that the world just can’t get enough of Princess Diana and her elegant, eternal style. Even though she’s remembered for her gorgeous evening gowns, her makeup is much more muted as she usually wore a hint of matte lipstick, eyeliner that perfectly framed her stunning blue eyes and pink blush.
It Was Newsworthy
If Emma Corrin’s performance as the late princess skating through Buckingham Palace complete in a pink gingham ensemble doesn’t scream, “Radical!”, the real Princess Diana’s fashion and beauty statements that made headlines surely will. Any small snip to her blonde locks would be on the first page of British tabloids including when she debuted longer hair at a major royal event and stole the show. She was then more careful to make minor changes to her look which she would discuss and plan with her trusted hairdresser, Richard Dalton.
