Hundreds of Princess Diana's dresses, shoes, hats, bags and other memorabilia hit the auction block in Beverly Hills on Thursday, June 26 after Julien's Auctions held the largest sale of the late royal's fashion ever. From her famous "Caring Dress" to a letter Diana wrote to a palace footman, bidders jumped to own a piece of royal history—and one such item went for more than 10 times its expected price.
The image of Diana standing on a polo field in a white British Lung Foundation sweatshirt is one of the most iconic images of the late princess. Dressed in jeans, a baseball cap, cowboy boots and a blazer over the logo crewneck, Princess Diana—who served as patron of the foundation— looked the epitome of '80s cool. On Thursday, the memorable sweatshirt went up for auction, with an estimated price between $10,000 to $20,000.
