Black gown once worn by Princess Diana sells for record-breaking \u00a3904,000 | UK News<\/p>\n

A Jacques Azagury gown worn by Princess Diana in 1985 has broken a new fashion record after selling for 11 times its estimated price.<\/p>\n

The black velvet evening dress had been estimated to sell for around $100,000 (\u00a378,776) when it went under the hammer at Julien’s Auctions in Hollywood<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

However, it fetched a staggering $1,148,080 (\u00a3904,262) – making it the most expensive dress worn by the late princess to be sold at auction.<\/p>\n

The previous record holder, a 1991 Victor Edelstein velvet gown, sold for $604,800 at an auction in January.<\/p>\n

The most expensive item of clothing ever worn by Diana remains her iconic black sheep jumper, which fetched a staggering $1.14m (\u00a3920,000) in a Sotheby’s auction in New York<\/strong> in September.<\/p>\n

Diana initially donned the frock in Italy in 1985 while on a royal tour with her then-husband, Charles<\/strong>, and again to the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra in 1986.<\/p>\n

The collector’s item was constructed with fabric chosen by world-renowned textile merchant Jakob Schlaepher and featured metallic embroidered stars carefully threaded by the design team at Jacques Azagury.<\/p>\n

The ballerina skirt was considered a nod to her patronage of the English National Ballet and her love of dance.<\/p>\n

Also on sale at the auction was a pink crepe blouse worn by Diana for her engagement portrait in 1981.<\/p>\n

It sold for $381,000 (\u00a3300,990) – nearly four times its original estimate of $80,000 (\u00a363,000).<\/p>\n

A Givenchy dress worn by Audrey Hepburn in the 1963 comedy Charade, a sleeveless gown worn by Gloria Swanson in the 1950 noir film Sunset Boulevard and Barbra Streisand’s sailor dress from a 1960s special called My Name Is Barbra were also sold at the event.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
