Designer Christina Stambolian remembers Princess Diana coming into her shop in 1991 and asking for a “special dress for a special occasion,” according to Diana: A Life in Dresses. After sketching out a few ideas, Stambolian landed on a short number that took two dressmakers more than 60 hours to make. Princess Diana wore the dress a few years later to a dinner at the Serpentine Gallery in Hyde Park, and it was immediately dubbed the “Revenge Dress” after Prince Charles admitted to having an affair with Camilla Parker Bowles that very same night. In reference to the ballet Swan Lake (one of Diana’s favorites), Stambolian says in Diana: A Life in Dresses that she was “thrilled to see Diana wear it on that night of all nights. She chose not to play the scene like Odette, innocent in white. She was clearly angry. She played it like Odile in black. She wore bright red nail enamel, which we had never seen her do before. She was saying: ‘Let’s be wicked tonight.’” According to Diana: A Life in Dresses, the dress remains in a bank vault and has not been seen for many years.

DYNASTY DI — TRAVOLTA DRESS
This is the first of my CC inspired by the ultimate rebel princess: Diana, Princess of Wales. Diana first wore the iconic Travolta dress at a White House gala in November 1985, where she famously danced with the gown's namesake, John Travolta. The off-the-shoulder midnight blue evening gown was designed by Victor Edelstein and was inspired by the fashion of the Edwardian Era.

The suite of diamond and sapphire jewels were presented to Diana by the Sultan of Oman during the couple’s tour of the Middle East in November 1986. The modern set, with geometric crescent designs, included a necklace, a pair of earrings, and a bracelet. Diana wore them for the first time in public at this dinner, pairing them with the Spencer Tiara.

The midnight blue velvet gown that Diana wore for the dinner probably also looks very familiar to you. And it should: it’s the famous Travolta Dress, made by Victor Edelstein. Diana debuted the dress at the White House in Washington, D.C., in November 1985, memorably dancing with actor John Travolta during the gala evening. The gown is now in the collection of the Historic Royal Palaces charity, which manages the public rooms of Kensington Palace, among other royal buildings.
